Dr. talk on The THE DAILY ALASKA E Proposed changes in the Uni- ted States mining laws that would impose galling restrictions on an | already overburdened industry and as sought in a confidential docu- ment of the Department of the In- terior and disclosed for the first time by the Los Angeles Times are as follows: 1—As to locations made - subse- quent to the effective date of the proposed act, the distinction be- tween placer and lode claims is abondoned. The size of a single claim is limited to 40 acres, rectan- gular in shape with the longer di- mension not more than twice the width. A patent based upon a val- uable discovery will include any vein, lode or placer deposits with- in the boundary of the patented claim, but it will not include the extralateral rights which heretofore have belonged to a lode patentee. ‘The purchase price will be $2.50. five acres, if the land is mineral, | the Secretary may issue a patent without proof of discovery sub- ject to such regulations as he may issue. 2—Claims located on surveyed | land shall conform as nearly as practicable according to the sur- vey. On unsurveyed land claims | shall be located in east-west, north- | | south lines, connected by course and distance to the nearest survey | corner if within two miles; if no such corner is available the claim is to be connected to two perman- | ent prominent natural objects or monuments. Surface gights 3—Any patent issued for a lo- cation made after the date of the proposed act will convey title to ! the minerals within the claim boundary together with the right {to cut timber needed in mining }opex‘anons pursuant to rules to be issued by the Secretary. Such | patent, unlike mineral patents | heretofore issued, will reserve| | to the United Stattes the surface , and. surface resources, with a | right in the mineral patent hold- jer to make only such use of the | | swface as is necessary for min- | ing operations, T 4—The proposed legislation mak- DOROTHY THIBODEAU HOME tes provision for a new type of min- | FOR VISIT OVER HOLIDAYS | ing location to be known as a “geological mining claim.” A geo-| iss Dorothy Thibodeau is being |logical mining claim may be located welcomed home by her many|prior to discovery.

This would be a completely new provision in the mining laws applicable to pub- lic lands. Advertisements Required Advertisements of applica- ns for patent are to be made once week for four consecutive weeks. In the case of a contest, personal notivswof at least 10 days mus be given to the opposing arty or, if he cannot be found, by publication once a week for four consecutive weeks in a newspaper in the county where the claim is lccated. This is a modification of an existing requirement. 9—With respect to mining on; lands which have been disposed ' of by the United States with a| mineral reservation, a prospec-| tor would be required to file with the Secretary a bond for security for damages to the surface of the land and to crops and impruve-) ments thereon. The holder of a patent for the minerals underlying such lands may likewise be required to compensate the owner of the surface for damages. This, also, is a modification of existing laws.
