The bill has been indorsed by conservationists. The Alasha bill provides for the leasing of the coal fields to private parties. They are to be worked, how ever, under the strictest government supervision to prevent waste. The leases are to be let subject to bids, to prevent favoritism. Every bidder must comply with- the regulations of the Interior department.

It simply gives to the government a preferential right to purchase the radium bearing ores from lands sow owned by the government at such prices, fixed by the secretary of the interior, as will encourage rad ium mining. At the same time It fur nishes to the miner a ready market and thus will encourage him to de velop his holdings.
