The new series of tests will be
conducted by Utah State University.

the Bureau of Reclamation, which

The contract is to run through June

Stunning an average farm use of 3

volume of evaporated water would
be sufficient to irrigate nearly five

$3.50 thous and of this had been
spent. In litigation now pending,
two Navajo Indians have challenged
the expenditures.
The proposed legislation would
change the 1888 law by broadening
the purposes for which the oil and
gas revenues may be spent to ben
eft the Navajos. by extending the
benefits to all Navajos residing in
San Juan County instead of just
those living in the former public
land area added to the reservation
(where m any Navajos S live only
part-time). and by authorizing the
State of Utah to establish a joint
commission with the Navajo Tribe
for admin steering the law.
While the Department has had
no formal expression of opinion
from the Navajo Tribe on the pend
ing bill, Assistant Secretary Car
yer indicated his understanding
that "the bill as written is the re-
suit of mutual efforts of the tribe
and the State of Utah to solve COM
mon problems encountered in the
admin str alton of the original act.

Benefits Expected
On Oil Bill Chumqe

The Department of the Interior
said today it has recommended
enactment of Federal legislation

benefits to Navajo Indi ans living in
San Juan County, Utah. from the
leasing of reservation lands for oil
and gas development.
Under a 1888 law. which added
about half million acres of public
land in Utah to the Navajo Reser-
vation, 81 percent of the oil and
gas revenues from these lands are
paid to the State of Utah to be spent
for tuition of Indian children in
public schools, for road construc-
tion and maintenance in the area,
and for the benefit of India ans re-
siding in the area.
These purposes have proved too
limited, Assistant Secretary John
