In the Judgment of the directors the

such that it seemed wiser to make a set

general dissolution suit with all of its

Fields of Coal and Oil.

1T is perhaps sufficient to say that
many times as much coal remains in coal
bearing public lands as has been extract
ed from public and private lands since
coal began to be used on this continent.
The most important oil field affected by
Withdrawals IS probably that of Cali
fornia. 1t has been estimated that there
are possibly 7,O0O,0OO,OOo barrels of I'M
developed oil in this field. Perhaps it
may be assumed that one-half of this
quantity is owned by the nation.
Il have discussed the status of the
lands containing the most important
known deposit of potassium salts. that
in Searles lake, California. A very gen
erous estimate of the amount of potas-
SUM chloride available in this lake leads
to the conclusion that there exists there
at least 100000 to 100000 tons, and
probably more"

Potassium in California.

The most important known potassium
deposit in the United States Is that in
Searles lake. in California. This lake is
claimed by the American Trona Corpora
ton. or its allied companies. under filings
whose validity has not been determined.
Pending decisions upon certain of these
claims. for which patent has been ap-
piled, it is impossible to state whether
Searles lake lands are public or private
lands.
I'm view of these conditions you will
realize that any definite statement as to
the proportion of withdrawn or classified
areas that remain in public ownership is
impossible. Nevertheless, I made such
an estimate as seemed to be justified by
the facts available when bulletin was
issued in 1913. I do not know that 1 can
improve upon this estimate now. 1t is
estimated that the following areas or
mineral-bearing lands outside of Alaska
are in public ownership: Coal. 44.OGO, 600
acres; oil and gas, 10000 acres; phos-
phate. 100000 acres.
No estimate was then made and none
can be made now as to the area of pub
lie potash lands
