'lair market value' for public grazing lands remains as strong as ever Comparing the values of public and private range as a basis for establishing grazing lees is impossible but the Interior Department and the Forest Service rarely seem able to grasp that point "Consequently" he said "i predict further tension and disagreement between your interest and thse ol the federal bureaucrats" he said Garn said he continues to favor legislation to "loosen the federal on the state's public lands stranglehold in order to allow responsible development ot mineral and energy resources " He noted that legislation he introduced last February - requiring the federal government to return all public lands to the states "succeeded in arousing the public and sending a signal to federal bureaucrats that enough is enough "My general philosophy is that land management can be best exercised by the government close to the people” he said ‘Through my legislation challenged the present trend that land management can be done best from Washington and I intend to continue the fight in the next Congress " -
