Montgomery Ala June 19 AP An inventory of state lands is underway by the state commission of forestry under a new act. Col Page S Bunker says 2 268 222 acres were granted to Alabama by the United States for uses including 911 627 acres for common schools and 500 000 acres for internal improvements.
