Pat Welp, an eighth-grader living on a farm near The Dalles, wrote Ullman saying he had heard one could obtain a buffalo free from the govern­ ment. “We have the cows, horses, pigs, rabbits and chickens on our farm,” Pat wrote. “I heard you can get a buffalo free from the government. 1 would appreciate any information you could give me on how or where 1 could get one.” Ullman immediately had aides get in touch with the Department of the Interior, but officials there told Ullman they have been deluged with requests re­ cently for free buffalo. One Interior official said he had even had a request for a stuffed bison. Ullman said he assured In­ terior officials the buffalo would be excellently cared for, and they indicated they would see what might be done to get Pat, the son of Mr. and Mrs. Ray Welp, a healthy buffalo. In the past, Ullman said, the Interior Department has occa­ sionally given a buffalo free to tax supported institutions such as zoos and wildlife parks.
