July 29 Is Deadline For Filing Claims Of Occupancy

July 29 is a critical date for set tiers on public lands who have not filed a notice of their occupancy of open public domain with the proper land office in Alaska, it was pointed out today by Regional Administrator Lowell M. Puckett, Bureau of Land Management. Un- der the provisions of a new law which became effective April 29, settlers on land must file their mo- tices of claim in the local land of- fices or, under certain conditions, not obtain rcedit for residence which they have maintained on the land.
 Homestead settlers who had filed their claims with the U. s. Commissioners office before April 29 have two years to refile such notices with the land office, but settlers under other laws who have not filed any type of appli- cation for the land were given 90 days, or until July 29. to file such notices.
 All settlers who have filed no application of any type with the land offices and have settled on the land since April 29 are re- minded that they have only 90 days from the date of settlement to record the notice of such settle ment with the land offices.
 Proper forms may be obtained from the respective land offices.

200 acres of winter wheat on $3.50 sum-
merfallow basis.
Joe keeps ITS head of cattle on the ranch
and sells yearlings in the spring. The
range land includes about 1890 acres and
is rotated with half used one year and the
other half the next. He has noticed real
improvement in the grass since starting
this system and believes it well worth
while.
Stock Water. Gully Control Dams
There are also 10 combination stock wa
ter and gully control dams on the place,
created with the help of the Dutch Creek
Clear Creek soil conservation district and
conservationist J. Newton Scott. The Sos
also helped lay out bitches and design the
diversion dam for the irrigation system.
Spring calving pasture is obtained from
80 acres of crested wheatgrass. Another
conservation practice Pilch has turned to is
stubble mulch tillage. He uses an offset,
disc once over to break down the stubble a
little in the fall and then again a couple
times in the summer before seeding it to
winter wheat again.

JOE PILCH, Sheridan county, Wyo-
ming, farmer stockman, didn't have to be
told the value of irrigated land to balance
his wheat and cattle operation He had
rented the 2,800-acre farm for eight years
during which time it was all dryland pro-
duction. In 1914 he bought the place and
one of the first things he did was to start
rebuilding a washed out diversion dam in
Prairie Dog creek that would allow him to
irrigate some 80 acres of creek bottom hay
land
$1,000 Plus Labor
The new dam with head gate diversion
structure cost $500 plus Joe's labor in get
ting enough large boulders to push into the
creek. A 11s-nile long ditch was dug at a
cost of $1,000.
His plans for the future also call for in
stallation of an electric pump to lift water
onto another 100 acres of land above the
creek Bringing water to the 80 acres of hay
land resulted in doubling his hay produc
ton. An alfalfa seed crop from about 40
acres netted him 500 an acre last year. He
is enthusiastic about seed production and

it seems to have had before"

nal offender had been the hus-
band. The real offender now was
the mother, who would deliberate
ly break up the marriage in order
to have the satisfaction of saying,
II told you so''-or words to that
effect.
When we explored the marriage
further, it was question whether
the wife hadn't been the original
offender, quite as much as the
husband. She had almost forced
him into infdelity.

to make a choice between your
husband and your mother" I told
her finally.

Gen. Marshall Calls
For SIS Million Goal
lin Red Cross Drive

A national goal of $85 million
for the 1851 American Red Cross
campaign was announced today by
Gen. George c. Marshall, Red
Cross president.
The figure for the March cam
paign was set by the organizations
board of governors to meet the in
creased tasks assumed by the Red
Cross during the present national
emergency" Gen. Marshall said.
National fund chairman will be
Gen. David Sarnoff, chairman of
the board of the Radio Corp. of
America.
Gen. Marshall pointed out the
Nations mounting military
strength and the additional civil
defense commitments require the
Red Cross to train 20 million
persons in first aid. The organ
ization, he said. will have to re-
cruit millions of blood donors and
prepare for mass feeding, clothing
and shelter in case of major
disaster.
Actually, Gen. Marshall said, the
estimated cost of the Red Cross
program for the 1951-1952 fiscal
year totals $98.8 million. but the
difference will be met by reserve
funds. However, he pointed out
the coming year will exhaust the
accumulation of reserve funds
from wartime oversubscriptions.
Last year the operating budget
was $79 million, with the fund
goal set at SGT million.
e. Roland Hartman, New York
banker and chairman of the board
Of the Union Pacific Railroad, who
viii succeed Gen. Marshall as Red
Cross president on Friday, par
ticipated in the Chicago meetings

STRIKE THREAT:
Old Issue Flares

Two big railway unions were
ready to "review the whole case"
of their Diesel-engine dispute with
the nations railroads. If the re-
suits weren't satisfactory to the
brotherhoods, the country faced
major strike threat.
The argument was two years old
and was easy to state. The unions
felt that the adoption of Diesel
powered locomotives discriminate
ed against manpower and insisted
that an extra man be put on these
locomotives, whether there was
any need for him or not.
The railroads, on the other hand,
have refused to do this.
Union leaders refused to discuss
just how imminent a strike might
be or when and in what matter it
might be called. Instead, they indi-
Gated a review of the situation.
The union was in a highly stra-
tegic position. It was free to
strike at any time, inasmuch as
all cooling off" provisions of the
railway labor act have been ex-
hausted.

ROYALTY:
Tough Going

Everyone has known for a long
time that with the exception of Eng
land, royalty has been having a
tough time. With the changing times
have gone royal privilege and pomp
but, chiefly regretful to royalty, the
cash, too, has gone.
LATEST to join the ranks of i'm
poverished noblemen was a German
duke, Ernst August, of Coumebr-
land and Brunswick, father of a
queen and cousin of a king.
Duke Ernst was really up against
it. He was so badly off, financial
ly, that he had to sell treasured
antiques just to pay his grocery
bills. Rare old relics of his family's
medieval splendor were to 60 under
the auctioneer's hammer.
Said the duke, philosophically,
"Of course, I'm sorry to part with
these things, but it just can't be
helped" The duke was down to his
last two castles-and one Of them
is a war ruin.

GAMBLING:
Up to CONGRESS

Congress itself may hold the key
to solution of the nations gam
bling problem and existence of the
gambling "syndicates." That, at
least, is the opinion of Senator Ed
win c. Johnson, Colorado Demo-
crat, who has urged congress to
pass an anti-slot-machine bill i'm
mediately. Johnson believes that
should be done before beginning a
nationwide crime investigation.
THE SENATOR happens to be
on good solid ground, because it is
partly through federal winking at
slot-machineS that the individual
states have so much trouble cop
ing with the "one-armed bandits"
The federal government licenses
slot-machines, despite the fact that
in the vast majority of states their
use and operation are illegal. If the
federal government slapped ban
on the machines, as it has on mar
cotics, white-slave traffic and 9TH
er morals offenses, the state would
find it far easier to deal with the
slot-machine problem.
THE BILL envisioned by John
son would outlaw manufacture of
gaming devices in states where
they are prohibited and forbid
their shipment into such states. It
would not apply, however, to states
where slot-machine operation has
been made legal by legislative act.
johnson explained his ideas on
the subject as indications pointed
to fight on the senate floor on
the question of who would get the
job of inquiring into the nations
crime.
Johnson's bill already is through
the commerce committee, where
it was approved without hearings.
Whether it would win congress
approval might rest on the politics
involved.

GEORGIA.:
Unit Vote Stoys

The county-unit vote determine
ton system is unique in the United
States because only two states use
it. 1t is unique, too, in that it is
found acceptable by city populations
In these states, when its use gives
votes in some rural counties up to
122 times more weight than those
in city areas.
But, the us. supreme court has
said the system is all right. In 7
to 2 decision it refused to strike
down the county-unit vote in Geor-
gia. Maryland is the only other state
employing this system.
JUSTICE BLACK and Douglas
protested bitterly against the ma
jority opinion, which was brief and
unsigned. These two members of
the court declared the action failed
to plug what they called the last
loopholes in the courts decision
which gives Negroes the right to
vote.
The majority opinion said that
federal courts have no right to in
terfere with the way state geo.
graphically apportions voting
strength. 1t made no mention of any
racial issue the dissenters saw in
the case.
Tive Georgia voters attacked the
existing law. Under the system, each
Of Georgia's 159 counties is allotted
a number of unit votes, ranging
from six for the eight most-populous
counties down to two for most of
the counties.
THE CANDIDATE who receives
the most popular votes in a county
is awarded all its unit votes. The
system, in that respect, works
something like the electoral col
lege.
