White Stockmen Challenge Grazing Rights in New Mexico
A U S Senate sub committee special investigator E S Haskell plans to visit Gallup shortly to probe claims by white stockmen that their grazing rights in district No 7 of northwestern New Mexico are threatened. The 3 5 million acre district in five counties has faced criticism since 1939 under Interior Department rules. Kelsey Presley of Gallup resigned as district grazing board chair last spring citing Rules that could exclude non Indians from stock raising. The Navajo tribal council petitioned the Interior Department to place four townships near the eastern Navajo reservation under grazing service and to open land for Indian stock.
