office. the expectation is that can
cellations will come through in the
not distant future. This will re-
suit in throwing the lands open
to the filing of application for
new leases. In proven oil fields 1t
will be necessary to buy the leases
at public autcion but in unproven
districts the leases can be obtained
by filing of application. Leases
are limited to $40 acres in proven
territry.
The only bonds required at this
time of permit owners is for the
protection of owners of surface
rights on agricultural lands. This
type of bond is unlike the one for
merly demanded which was the
deterrent in the completion of many
of the lease applications since bond
ing companies would not write them
for individuals.
Many Of the leases issued in the
local office we're on permits on

ment has been worked out. Most
OF the completed leases are In the
