SETTLE ALASKA
COAT LEASING
End of Eight Years’ Fight
Come By Passage of Bill Re
vived By President and Sec
retary Lane.
Washington. —Given up na (iPad
legislation loan than a week ago, the
Alaska coal land leasing bill, revived
at the instance of President Wilson
and Secretary I-a no as part, of the ad
ministration's program at this ses
sion, awaits only the president’s sig
nature to become a law. It went
through Its final ordeal In the house
yesterday virtually without opposi
tion.
The bill is designed to throw open
to a system of leases under compe
titive bidding the Immense coal re
sources of Alaska, tied up the last
eight years, and pending claims will
he adjudicated within a year The
Bering Itlver, Matanuska and Nenaria
coal fields will be first surveyed, the
government retaining 6,120 acres In
the Bering and 7.6K0 acres In the Ma
tiinuska fields and one-half of all
other coal areas. To prevent monop
oly or In other emergencies the gov
ernment reserves the light to mine
coal for the benefit of t hearmy and
navy or for the operation of the gov
ernment railroads In Alaska.
Leases will be made In blocks of
forty acres or multiples of that
amount not exceeding 2,560 acres al
together In any one lease and to run
not more than fifty years. Present
coal lands claimants may relinquish
their rights to patent under the old
law, payment being refunded.
Royalties paid by lessees must be
at least two cents a ton, with a max
imum on restricted. Proceeds from
leases will be useable only to reim
burse the government for building the
Alaskan railway.
“This Is the end of an eight year
struggle," said Secretary Lain* last
night. “The enactment of the bill is
a real victory for a sensible anti
monopoly policy. Three-fifths of a
true conservation program a railroad
for Alaska, a new reclamation law,
and the Alaska coal land leasing hill
—have lieen crystallized Into law.
"The other two measures, which al
ready have passed the house and will
Come before the senate In December,
are the waterpower bill nnd a meas
ure tinker which our oil phosphate
and poitaah lands may be opened and
put to use."
