PRIMITIVE IDEA

The public lands were during the
earliest administrations treated as ma
tional asset for the liquidation of pup
lic debt and source of reward for our
soldiers and sailors. Later on they We're
donated in large amounts i'll ald OF tile
construction of wagon roads ana fall-
xvays in order to open up regions in the
west then almost inaccessible.
The principal land statutes were en-
acted more than a quarter or a cen
f1Iry ago. The homestead act, the pre-
emntion and timber culture act, the
coal land and the mining acts were
among these. The rapid disposition OF
The public lands under the early stat
,ltes and the lax methods of dlstrlbu-
tion prevailing, due, 1 think, to the be-
lief that these lands should rapidly
mass into private ownership, gave rise
10 the Impression that the public do
main was legitimate prey for the un-
scrupulous and that it was not con-
trary to good morals to circumVent
land laws.
This prodigal manner of disposition
resulted in the passing of large areas
of valuable lands and many of our
natural resources into the hands of
nersons who felt little or no RESPONSE
bility for promoting the national well
fare through their development.
The truth is that title to millions of
acres of public lands was fraudulentIy
obtained and that the right to recover
a. large part of such lands for the gov
ernment long since ceased by reason
of statutes of limitations.
