War vs.. GAO Acre HOmesteads

There seemst to be considerable unrest among the homesteaders throughout
the Southwest, who filed under the GAO acre sockraiing homestead act, that
thr lands will not be designated. True it has been nearly a year since entries
were first made under the $40 acre law and no designations have been allowed
up to this time but the homesteaders must remember that this is a time of
war and not peace and that many more important things must come first. A
glance along the border Of New Mexico would show the inqubitve that a
very large force Of men from the Geological Survey, who could be investigat
ing and making designations, are mapping the border for the War Depart
ment. This must be done before homesteaders entries are allowed. The
Geological Survey and other departments at Washington have been busy with
issues of the war and patience must be shown with them by the GAO acre home
stead entymen. The Western Liberal is in receipt Of information from the
director of the Geological Survey himself that men are nov being selected
by civil service examination to go ahead with the land designations by the
first Of the year. So be patient and bear with Uncle Sam conservatively.
Remember Germany has to be whipped or $40 are homestead won't be worth
