Provisions of Leasing Bill Aims at Western Development
The long debated general leasing bill advances with royalties set at 37 percent to the state on future production while federal and reclamation shares are defined. Prospectors gain two year permits up to 2560 acres with leases of 20 years at 5 percent royalty, plus preference rights to remaining lands. The measure limits hold by any one lessee, bans indirect large holdings, requires wages paid twice monthly, and enables royalty oil sales to boost government revenue.
