SURFACE RIGHTS
 BILL IS PASSED
 BY LOWER HOUSE
Bill Permitting Patents to ls- sue to Homesteads on
 Coal Lands Passed.

WASHINGTON. D. C., Nov. A. The so-called surface rights home stead bill providing for the issuance of patents for homesteads located on agricultural lands in Alaska now classed as coal lands was passed by the House late yesterday afternoon. It has been sent to the Senate.
 The Geological Survey, reporting on this measure, said that an area of 1000 square miles of rich farm lands on the west shore of Cook Inlet comes under this measure. It Is said also that about 50 home steaders are residing in this district who under this measure can acquire patent to their holdings.
 Local representative of the De partment of Interior, including Geo. A. Parks, Chief of the Field Service, Alaska Division, General Land Of fee, and Frank A. Boyle, Register of the local U. s. Land Office, are confident that little if any difficulty will be encountered by the bill in the Senate. On two different oc- casions, Senator Reed Shoot, of Utah, Chairman of the Senate Con- mittee on Public Lands, has intro duced a measure similar to the one passed by the House yesterday. Alaska, at this time, is said to be the only political subdi1 ision ot the United Staes containing public lands which does not already have such q provision. The bill has the en- dorsement of the Alaska Interde partmental Committee and at least one of the bills introduced in the matter by Senator Shoot was pre- pared by that Committeee. In addi tion to the lands on Cook Inler, other lands along the Government Railroad north of Anchorage and in the Healey and Nenana river valleys will become available to homestead patent under the measure.
