The task was assigned to Mr. Hinckley Hin-ckley by Federal Administrator Harry L. Hopkins, in a long distance telephone conversation with the head of the CWA. As explained in the press dispatches, the plan is to reduce the hours of those now working in rural areas and towns of less than 2500 population from 30 to 15 hours a week, in order to permit the employment of other persons for 15 hours a week. In this way, two will be employed where one man is now working. 30 YEARS AGO January 21, 1954 . Washington, D.

BLM grazing fee for 1984 set at $137 The Interior Department's Bureau of Land Management (BLM) has announced an-nounced a new grazing fee of $1.37 per animal unit month for the 1984 grazing graz-ing season, a three cent reduction from 1983. The new fee, which becomes effective effec-tive March 1, 1984, applies to livestock grazing on BLM and Forest Service-administered Service-administered lands in the western United States. An animal unit month (AUM) is the measure representing the amount of forage consumed by one cow in one month. By law, the BLM and the U.S. Department of Agriculture's Forest Service are required to review the fee schedule annually and recompute the grazing fee using a legislatively established formula based on beef production pro-duction costs. This is the sixth year in a seven year trial period for a grazing fee formula established by the Rangelands Improvement Im-provement Act of 1978. This formula ties the grazing fee to a yearly fluctuation fluctua-tion in production costs for beef. The fee decreased this year because Tanchers received less for their beef in 1983 while production costs went up. This is the second consecutive year in which a grazing fee decrease has occurred. In announcing the new fee, Bob Bur-ford, Bur-ford, Director of the Bureau of Land Management, said that Vanchcrs will pay about $13 million to graze their livestock on BLM-administered lands in 1984, A portion of the grazing fee receipts are appropriated by Congress for rangeland improvement work or, in some instances, a percentage is returned to the counties or states where the grazing took place. - I !( i ii i,,,.,.,,.! t if j |
