Three conservation measures face committee hurdles though proponents vow passage with real grassroots support. The Baker Bill would earmark 10 percent of National Forest receipts for habitat and recreation, sparking opposition from loggers and stockmen. H R 6788 would limit dam building, favoring small detention reservoirs. H R 7764 and 8194 would return 1312 million dollars from Pittman Robertson to states for wildlife work, urging Illinois and others to receive funds.
