RULING APPLICABLE
NATIONAL FORESTS
OBTAINING PATENT
jrt£W IN ' >'DISTRICT ELIGiDLE
TO QUALIFY FOR HOME SITES
The follow m5 article handed 5 . to
the Gateway ' y Russell Annabel, for
estry man. who has been associated
with the Chugaeh National Forest for
the last three years, is self explana
tory. Mr. Annabel has been attend
ing the University of Washington
since last fall and returned to Seward
last Friday to resume his duties with
the department. He will be stationed
at Lawing this season, he states.
The article:
Home owners in Alaska, outside in
corporated towns, may now obtain
patent to their home sites up to a
maximum of five acres. This is made
possible upder an amendment to the
Trade & Manufacturing Site Act pass
ed in the closing days oil the last Con
gress, and approved by the President
on March 4.
The United States Forest Service
has been urging the passage of this
legislation for five years in order to
take care of numerous residents with
in the boundaries of the National
Forests w’ho could not qualify for
patent under existing laws.
While the act applies to "the unre
served public domain” it will be
made applicable to the National For
ests in the same manner as are trade
and manufacturing sites. That is,
where a citizen has established a per
manent home within the National For- j
est, the site occupied can, upon appli- |
cation, be eliminated from the forest, j
Tt thereupon becomes unreserved pub-j
lie domain subject to the provisions :
of the act.
The act applies only to citizens of
the United States and the site to be
applied for must be the permanent
and exclusive home of the applicant.
So far as the National Forests are
concerned, it is anticipated that elimi
nations of homes elsewhere, except
where the areas occupied are requir
ed for public purposes or for utiliza
tion of timber, water power, or other
national forest resources.
Supervisor W. J. McDonald ol the
Chugaeh National Forest states that
at this time there are not a great
many occupants on the Chugaeh for
est who will come under the act, as
most of the home sites are occupied
only a portion of the year, and not
"to the exclusion of homes else
where.” However, there are a few,
particularly in the Seward and An
chorage district, who can qualify and
who will no doubt want to take ad
vantage of the act.
