Mr.. Leavitt, in explaining the pur-
pose of the bill, said that he had at
various times received many letters
suggesting various ways of working
Der 1, 1925. The penalty in each of
out the Fort Peck land matter, and as
a result last summer while in Mon
tana he met with both Indians and set
tiers suggesting that they get to-
gether and reach an agreement. This
conference was held November "a,
1924, and his bill is based on the reso-
lutions then signed by the representa-
tives of the two groups, and after full
consideration by the Indian bureau.
1t is represented that since the bill
allows settlers time to apply their
1925 and 1926 crops to meeting back
payments they are satisfied, while the
guarantee of payment meets the APP
proval of the Indians.
Mr.. Leavitt, who is slated to be
chairman of the house Indian affairs
committee in the 69th congress, said
that he considered this a step in the
right direction in dealings of the gov
eminent with the Indians, since it as
sures them fulfillment of promises
made on the part of purchasers of
their land. Due to short crops in
some years past, a great many set
tiers are in arrears but the extension
provided for was considered satisfac-
tory by their representatives at the
Joint conference.
A bill to provide for extension of
payment on homestead entries on ced-
ed lands of the Fort Peck Indian res
ervation, state of Montana, and for
other purposes.
Be it enacted by the senate and
house of representatives of the United
States of America in congress assem-
bled, that all homestead entrymen Cor
entrywomen), being actual settlers
within the boundaries of the said Fort
Peck Indian reservation are hereby
granted an extension of time for pay
ment Of one-half the amount, includ-
ing principal and interest, due and un-
paid on their homestead entries until
the 1st day of November, 1925, and
for payment of the other half until
the 1st day of November, 1926; all
such amounts to bear interest until
the payment dates, at 5 per centum
per annum: Provided, that upon fail
ure to make complete payment of eth
installment by any entryman Cor
entrywoman) the entry shall be can
celed and the land revert to the status
of other tribal lands of the Fort Peck
Indian reservation.
Sec. 2. All entrymen Cor entry
women) who have abandoned residence
on and cultivation of their entries and
who are in arrears in any amounts
are hereby required to make payment
in full of both principal and interest
on or before the 1st day of November,
1925: Provided, that all delinquent
amounts of both principal and inter
est shall draw interest at the rate of
5 per centum per annum until paid:
Provided further, that upon failure to
make full and complete payment of
both principal and interest on or be-
fore the 1st day of November, 1925,
said entry or entries shall thereupon

ADOPT NEW
LEASEPLAN
Kositzky. Will Not Renew
Land Leases on Request
of LeaSehOlders

Decision not to renew leases on
public school lands at the request of
leaseholders was reached here today
at meeting of the state board Of
school lands. Action was taken. Land
Commissioner Carl Kositzky said, be-
cause of protests from many citizens
that renewal of leases without COM
petitive bidding prevented them from
obtaining leases on valuable proper
ty. In many cases, Kositzky said,
leases have been renewed in order to
Justify the leaseholder in fall plant
ing or doing other work on the land
of which he was sure to get the ben
eft.
1t also was decided that in future
all sections Of which one half is un-
der cultivation viii be listed as cul-
tivated land and leases will be sold
on that basis. Three school bond is
sues were purchased as follows:
Pleasant Valley, Oliver county, ST.
500; Tagns School District. Mountrail
county, $4,000, and Fancher school
district, Ramsey county, $4,000.

Secretary Of State Hughes was
