ARIZONA GETS PART or.
NATIONAL FOREST RECEIPTS

ALBUQUERQUE. n. NJ. Sept. "a
Arizona has just received check for
SCI, 3Oo.S9 from the Treasurer of the
United States as its share of the Ma
tional Forest receipts for the year
ending July /. This amount consists
of s42.43O51 which represents 25 per
cent of the receipts from the National
Forests in the state and s23,S69sS be-
cause Of school lands in the forests.
These amounts are considerably
smaller than usual because Of the
greatly reduced National Forest re-
ceipts. In 1920 the total receipts OF
the forests in Arizona were 1861 900
while this year they dropped to 1884,
600. This reduction is due largely TO
the concession made TO the stockmen
by giving them until December / 10
pay grazing fees which would ordin-
arily have been paid last spring. A
portion OF the reduction is due also
20 reduced sales Of timber
In addition TO the funds sent the
state. District Forester F. c. W. Pool
er has just received sl6.756.s1 from
Washington for the construction Of
roads and traits within the National
Forests of the state. This amount
represents 10 per cent OF the net re
ceipts OF the forests.
Under existing laws the states, with
in which the National Forests exist,
may benefit through National Forest
receipts in three ways. First they re-
ceive % Per cent Of the receipts for
roads and schools These funds are
turned over 10 the states for dist-i-
button TO the counties within which
the National Forests exist They are
given TO the counties in lieu of taxes,
the amount given each county Deepen !
ing upon the area OF National Forest
land within it.
In addition 10 per cent of the For
est receipts are spent within the For
ests for roads and trails These funds
are spent by the Forest Service but,
OF course. the counties benefit direct
ly by them.
In Arizona and New Mexico. through
their enabling acts. the Forest Service
also administers the school sections
within National Forests turning over
the receipts to the state for school
purposes The states. however. have
the privilege of giving back these
school lands TO the United States and
taking in lieu thereof, other govern
ment lands outside the National For
ests, in which case, Of course. the re
ceipts from this source are reduced.
