Kositzky, state land com- missioner. Under the old law, Kositzky said, the federal government tained title to minerals which might be found on or under lands ceded to ‘the state. Although thousands of acres of state land areaunderlaid with valuable coal deposits no trouble ever has been exverienced with regard to this phase of the old law, Kositzky said, possibly because other land not owned by the state contained more than enough coal to meet present needs. Many Oil Leases Granted That some persons are not loath jto take advantage of the mineral feature of the old law, however, is shown by the fact that the federal land office here recently has granted leases to many persons interested in oil developments in the western part of the state. In many instances these leases to mineral rights cover ptoperty already occupied by set- tlers who have not yet obtained valid title to the land. @ | House pets, All of the public lands in the state {now haye been surveyed, Kositzky said, except those included in the various.
