EX-SERVICE MEN ASK
FOR 100000 ACRES
OF LAND IN ARIZONA

PHOENIX, Mar. 27. - Stephen
B. Rayburn, chairman of the Am
erican Legion committee heading
a movement to have 100000
acres of public government land
in Arizona set aside for the use
Of all ex-service mems organiza-
tions in this state, has received
kilograms from Senators Ashurst
and Cameron at Washington that
a bill providing for such a land
grant is now in the mixing and
will be introduced in the house
within the next few days.
The request for the 100000
acres Of government land by the
Legion was made last July at the
state convention of the Legion in
Nogales, and received the full in
dorsement Of all ex-service organi-
cations.
The 100000 acres would be
selected from the more than 49,
100000 acres of government pub
lie land now open to homestead in
Arizona. Preference to grazing
land would be made and the SOL
diers' land leased principally to
cattle and sheep men. At the
present time public grazing land
is being leased at three cents an
acre, making it possible for the
soldiers TO realize 100000 a year
from their prospective land grant.
The 100000 would be used sole
ly for the rehabilitation Of dis
abled soldiers coming to Arizona
FOR their health it is proposed.
