Congressman Walton Comes Late With His Public
Land Grant Bill. We Want Land, Not Politics

i" CONGRESSMAN W. b. Walton has introduced
a bill IN the House of representatives pro
viding for the granting to New Mexico Of
the remaining public domain within this state. This
is a good bill. The people of New Mexico are for u.
The state needs the land and can put it 10 better,
quicker and more efficient use than can ever be the
case while il remains under the administration of
n huge and intricate bureau in Washington.
Tie trouble with Congressman Walton's bill
is that il comes latc--about two years tate. IL
should have been the first bill introduced by him
after he acquired the right 10 introduce legislation
in the Congress of the United States. Instead of
that Congressman Walton has waited until the very
tail end of his term. when he can hope TO accomp-
lish very little in the way of passage OF his bill. lie
has waited, IN fact, Gutil the eve OF Il contest for a
seat ia the United States senate, in which contest
he hopes TO be q participant.
Senator A. b. Fall introduced just such a bill
as Mr.. Walton has now presented, soon after he en-
tered the United States senate. He found much
sentiment in the senate favorable to the passage of
such a bill. In fact it has been stated on very com
pctent authority that a bill to grant the remaining
public domain to the several states. could have been
passed in the senate at almost any time during the
past four years. That such a bill has not been
passed. il is stated and is probably stated truthfully,
has been due to the fact that il would have had
no chance of passage in the house of representatives,
where the tremendous influences Of the Interior de-
partmcnt and the Public Lands bureau were UNI
alterably set against it.
Senator A. A. Jones of New Mexico, passing
as he did from a high post III the Interior depart
ment into the senate, undoubtedly would have been
able to encourage and aid the passage of a land
grant act, had he cared TO do so.
Senator Jones and Congressman Walton, had
they cared to do so, could have worked in eo-opera-
ton with Senator Fall, for the passage of Il land
grant act. They could have begun this cooperation
right at the beginning of their terms of office, and
by doing so might have been able to get results.
Unfortunately they did nothing of the kind. Mr..
Walton has waited until the eve of a senatorial
campaign in which he expects to be a candidate, TO
launch his land grant bill. Mr.. Jones has failed to
launch anything
This leads TO the inevitable conclusion that
Mr.. Walton's bill has been introduced for political
effect and not to ret action on a matter of intense
interest and tremendous Importance to his state.
