Wm. Young met with the Board
relative to sub-marginal lands, and
upon motion duly passed the follow
ing Resolution was adopted:
RESOLUTION
WHEREAS, the United States Gov
ernment opened up for homestead
entry the Fort Peck Indian Reserva
tion for settlers around 1915; and
WHEREAS, the money received
from the sale of said land to home
stead entrymen was turned over to
the Fort Peck Indians; and
WHEREAS. During the drouth
years, it was found necessary to
purchase sub-marginal lands from
white settlers who did not have the
necessary unit in order to make a
decent living; and
WHEREAS, Said land is now own
ed by the United States Govern
ment; and
WHEREAS, a bill has been intro
duced In the United States Senate
(S. B. No. 917), which would turn
over these sub-marginal lands pur
chased by the Government back !••
the Fort Peck Indians; and
WHEREAS, It is necessary that the
sub-marginal lands that were pur
chased by the Government be used
to relieve a situation among the
white settlers of the Fort Peck
Indian Reservation in such a wav
that the white settlers would be
given the opportunity to buy said
sub-marginal lands for the purpose
of rounding out their units, whether
it be for additional grazing lands,
or for additional farming lands
in order to make their units the
size they should be in order to en
able them to carry on and make a
living for themselves and thc’r
families and educate their children;
and
WHEREAS, the need of this sub
marginal land is necessary in order
to relieve the tax burden now on
the white settlers of the Fort Peck
Indian Reservation so that this land
should not be given back to the In
dians as there is a lot of Indian land
on this Reservation and-the Indians
have already been phld for this
land; and
WHEREAS, We had acquired
some tax deed lands during those
unusual dry years, and now since
climatic conditions have returned
to normalcy, we have been helpful
by the sale of tHhse lands to balance
out proper units for the remaining
farmers and ranchers: and
WHEREAS, Our Country is at
War and there is a serious shortage
of food and fibre, and we have k.
000 acres of the above lands on the
Fort Peck Indian Reservation, an
proximately one-half of which i<
good agricultural land. This agri
cultural land has been laying ldl“
since th. date of purchase by the
Government, and growing nothing
but weeds, which lands at this time
should be plowed up and brought
back Into production of flax and
other war crops that are so vital to
our war of fort.
BE IT. THEREFORE, RESOLVEI’,
by the Board of County Commis
sioners of Roosevelt County, Mon
tana, at their regular session this
sth day of August, A. D. 1044, that
we requ. st that this land purchased
under the sub-marginal land pur
chasing program be turned over ‘o
the General Land Office of the Uni
ted States for the purpose of sale,
so as to open up these lands for
purchase to the settlers In this
area, who are anxious to put this
land In to production of essential
crops vitally needed to further our
war effort This would also l»’U
this Ihnd hark <*n tH Ue. r •
enable the present settlers to have
the (fanning units they need in order
t<» carry on with their farming and
ranching operations.
