After It had' been held by the rail road for almost SO years, the gov ernment in 1916 cancelled the con tract on the ground the rail line had violated the agreement by selling land to some persona wno were not set tlers and had obtained meht anr had obtained more than $2.50 an acre. Off Tax Rolls. With the cancellation, the timber-i lands went off the tax rolls, taking1 about $480,000 annually from tho counties. In the cancellation mea sure, the Chamberlain-Ferris act of 1916, a fund, known as the Oregon-1 California land grant fund, was wt up to reimburse the countlea for the ! lost revenue, the money to be ob tained by the aale of the land by the government. Because little of the property was sold, the federal government paid nothing between 1916 and 1926. In 1926 the measure was amended by the Stan field O. Jc C. act to provide for direct payment out of the federal treasury of approximately $5,000,000, the amount equal to the taxea the counties should receive each year on the property if it were in private hands. In 1933 the secretary of the interior notified the counties the fund was exhausted and at that time it was learned the money which had been paid to the counties had not been taken from the treasury, but had been advanced against the expected Income from sale of the land. Payment Stopped. The payments stopped when the comptroller general ruled there was no appropriating clause In the Stan field act to provide funds for pay ment to the countlea after 1932. Mott's bill, which was referred by the house public landa committee to Secretary Ickes. would reimburse chn counties for the 1933 taxes and pro vide for future payments. The rep resentative quoted the secretary as promising a "favorable recommenda tion" on the matter If. Douglas ap proves. At a conference between Mott, Sen ators Stelwer and McNary, Oregon Re publicans, and Ixuglas, the situation was, explained, and the representative said the budget director promised to "consider sympathetically."
