Kansas seeks congress to lease Fort Hays reserve oil rights
Attorney General Clarence V. Beck after a White House conference said Kansas would seek congressional authorization to lease the 7,000 acre Fort Hays military reservation for oil and mineral rights. Senator Capper and Rep. Jamison would sponsor the bill. Land reserved for education but mineral rights retained by government. Lease expected around $2 an acre with 1/8 royalty on production. Also notes wells near the reserve may drain oil. Beck was attending an interstate crime conference and planned to return to Kansas. Nebraska taxpayers paid $29.06 per thousand dollars of property value in 1836.
