Wash ington. June 20. (Special.) Because of the differences of opinion that ex ist in and out of Congress there can be no legislation at this session look ing to the regulation of grazing on the public domain. This has been the first session when any serious effort has been made to pass a leasing bill and consideration of this subject was put off so long that no agreement is possible. Finally the whole question was involved In such bitter contro versy that It became necessary to set it aside until next Winter and possi bly for another year after that. A bill introduced by Representative Lever, of South Carolina, formed the basis of committee discussion this Spring and the bill has the hearty sup port of the Department of Agriculture, which is given control of all grazing on the public lands. In the course of the hearings Gifford Plnchot, a private citixen. appeared and recommended the passage of the Lever bill. At the same time Secretary Fisher, of the interior Department, appeared in opposition to one phase of the Lever bill and sug gested that the regulation of grazing should be left in the hands of the In terior Department, which 'now has Jurisdiction over all unreserved public lands.
