Savings eyed by stockmen cut grazing fees in half
In a Gary era report, officials recount years of lobbying with lawmakers from 1930 to 1932 to reduce grazing fees for cattle and sheep. They note prior inaction and eventual anticipated rate drops from 14% to 7.44 cents per head per month for cattle and from 4.5 to 2.0 cents for sheep, with broader credit relief as benefits. The piece also mentions the women's sports committee planning outreach to invite nonmembers to golf events.
