I think they forgot

“When we look up and down the ocean fronts of America, we find that

everywhere they are passing behind the fences of private ownership. The

people can no longer get to the ocean. When we have reached the point

that a nation of 125 million people cannot set foot upon the thousands of

miles of beaches that border the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans, except by

permission of those who monopolize the ocean front, then I say it is the

prerogative and the duty of the Federal and State Governments to step in

and acquire, not a swimming beach here and there, but solid blocks of

ocean front hundreds of miles in length. Call this ocean front a national

park, or a national seashore, or a state park or anything you please—I say

that the people have a right to a fair share of it.”

Secretary of the Interior Harold Ickes, 1938

I think they forgot their mission statement!!!
