Senator Urges BLM
To Proceed With Surveys
Of State-Selected Lands
Sen. E. L. (Boh) Bartlett went
on record again recently in favoi
of increased funds for exterioi
boundary surveys by the Interior
Department of lands selected by
the State of Alaska. In addition,
Bartlett urged that the Bureau of
Land Management be instructed
to proceed to survey the exterior
boundaries < f each tract ol pub
lic land selected by the state,
whether or not adjacent to other
selected land, provided only that
it is reasonably compact and
larger than 5,760 acres.
There has been a long-standing
controversy between the State Di
vision of Lands and the Bureau ol
Land Management on the size ol
selections on which the BLM will
perform exterior boundaries, the
senator pointed out. The State
hood Act specifies that selections,
reasonably compact, will be no
less than 5,760 acres. The BLM
has been insisting on interpreting
the law to require the State to
make much larger selections, the

WINS ELKS CONTEST
HOMER — Carl Nelson was
winner of the Most. Valuable Stu
dent contest recently conducted
in the Homer Elks Lodge. An
award will be made in amount of
$50 at an early date.
Winning the local award en
titles Carl to participate in the
State Elks Association contest
and possibly in the national con
test for a scholarship award.
Senator said.
Under questioning- by Senator
Bartlett in recent hearings before
the Interior subcommittee of the
Senate Appropriations Commit
tee, Director Karl Landstrom of
the BUM stated that the mini
mum size which the HIM is re
quired to survey under the State
hood Act is 50,000 acres. When
pivssed for details, Landstrom
stated that a Senate statehood re
port so specified. Upon further
investigation, it turned out that
he referred to language in a 1951
report.
“It appeals to me,” Senator
Bartlett declared, “that it is to
tally irrelevant to make reference
to the history of a statehood bill
in tlie 83rd Congress. This bill
did not become a law. Alaska
statehood was passed in the 85th
Congress and what is revelant
here is the legislative history of
that act. At that time no qualifi
cations were made on the BUM
s u ryey r en ui re men ts. ”
The 19 14 budget of $1,650,000
for cadastral surveys in Alaska,
including survey of state selec
tions. is some lie less than the
$1,034,000 allocated in the 1963
fiscal year. Senator Bartlett is
urging appreciable increases and
insisting that BUM no longer dis
pute or delay its assigned .job.
