TO Fight FEDERAL
CONSERVATION Plan
Western Governors Expected to
Oppose :. S. Control Of
Resources.

Madison, Wis, Nov. state versus
federal control of natural resources Is
to be discussed at the annual meet
ing CT TIE governors conference to be
held in Madison, Wis, November 10
to l4--not as an incident, but as one
of the principal issues.
The western states complain bitter
" against the federal policy of con-
%servation inasmuch as under this pol.
icy the federal government owns from
80 to so per cent Of the lands in some
Of the states, and thereby deprive the
states of the taxes on these lands.
"a @'@ The Arguments.
The federal conservationists justify
this policy by the experience OF some
Of the states in the past. They say
that il the lands are turned over to
the states. history will repeat itself
and the great mineral, forest and
water power resources viii fall into,
the hands of a few.
TO this the western governors re-
ply: Turn the lands over to the
states coupled with any conditions
you may see fit to prevent monopoly.
The policy OF the federal govern.
ment from the beginning was to turn
over all lands to the states when they
were admitted. This was the basis
on which the thirteen original cot
cnies were admitted. This was the
policy with respect to the states
carved out Of the Northwest TERRITORY.
Cuts Down Taxes.
"The federal constitution provides
that all states shall be- admitted to
the Union on an equal footing.
For the federal government to
withhold lands from the western
states isia violation of this provision
of the constitution. 1t is impossible
for a state to progress properly when
!G'to so per cent Of the lands within
it's borders are owned by the federal
government and therefore not subject
to state taxation"
