Executive Order 1257
It is hereby ordered that the SE. ¼ of the NW. ¼ and the SW. ¼ of the NE. ¼ of section 18, township 17 S., range 12 west, New Mexico, within the limits of the Gila National Forest as established by proclamations of the President, dated July 21, 1905, and June 18, 1908, be further withdrawn from sale or other disposition, subject to private rights, if any there be, for military purposes to protect the water supply of Fort Bayard: Provided, That this withdrawal for use by the War Department shall not revoke the withdrawal of the land as a part of the Gila National Forest made by said proclamations of July 21, 1905, and June 18, 1908, but both withdrawals shall stand together, the withdrawal for the War Department being the dominant one, and whenever the use of the land as a national forest does not interfere with the protection of the water supply of Fort Bayard, such use shall not be interfered with, but the lands shall not be subject to appropriation under any of the public land laws.
Wm. H. Taft.
