No Maximum Provided For A : “The present senate bill provides We will demonstrate how to Fry Doughnuts and Onions no maximum royalty at all There is 4 not a lawyer or business man in con- gress who would advise any one to invest his money where he did not know what amount of rovalty he would be reqyiftd to pay. That is a ruinous idea, and we cannot believe our congressinen will be so unbusi- nesslike as to leave a maximum rov- alty out of the law. There again, Senator Smoot’s idea is first class, “He named 25 per cent. as the maximum, with a strong hint that was high enough, for in permits to explore he named 20 per cent. us the royalty, after mak- b ing discovery and producing before a lease was secured following the QUALITY permit and discovery. If 20 per cent is enough under the flush production of the first flow. why is it not enough COURTESY to pay for diminished settled produc- tion. “It is silly to say to a man who SERVICE is called upon te spend his money that the royalties will always be low enough if there is no fixed maximum royalty. The present secre 'y of the interior would undoubtedly be rea- sonable if left alone, but he wasn’t -—_—— left alone in fixing royalties before. | He fixed them at one-eighth under t nder Qoefregectoetedtoeteate eeoeteeteaeetoeteate ceoeteeties DPepdrrtretoaiess the temporary relief act, to continue until a leasing bill could be enacted, +4 but he was forced to change one- e eighth royalty to a 100 per cent. im- poundment. This was on August’ 8, aa 1918. Who knows that a different secretary may not have different ideas. even if he isn’t forced to do something he does not wish to do, and who knows that we may not have further conservation fanatics who will have their influence at least tem- porarily.” Congress should give the mineral men a business foundation so that the country can get down to busi- ness and produce. There should be no yielding to the siren songs of the dreamers and slanderers. | Lands Have Been Tied Up | et us have a leasing bill and tsoon. This question has been agging in congress since 1913, and millions of acres have been tied up since 1909. This country was built up thru the development of the pub- lic domain and there is no use put- ting statutes on the books relative to leasing and prospecting that will drive business men away from devel- oping our natural resources, as has' been done with the vast coal fields of Alaska that lay almost as dorman* as the day Columbus discovered America. | “The only causes for delav in the} enactment of a leasing bill ere sug-| gestions for further hearings before the public lands committee of the} house and reports from the depart- ments of justice and interior, which} it is understood have been asked for.) “It is the belief that tbe depart-| ments will promptly respond and con- gressmen should ask for no further hearings at least of great length, us} Senator Smoot says, the shelves are piled with tons of hearings. | “If the proper work is done, a good leasing bill will be placed gn the statute booky forthwith. This will) probably be accomplished under the, leadership of Hon. Nicholas J.
