Act No. 2874 Section 67

Section 67

SEC. 67. Any tract of public land of the class covered by this title may be sold or leased for the purpose of founding a cemetery, church, college, school, university, or other institution for educational, charitable or philanthropical purposes or scientific research; the area, to be such as may actually and reasonably be necessary to carry out such purpose, but not to exceed ten hectares in any case. The sale or lease shall be made subject to the same conditions as required for the sale and lease of agricultural public land, but the Secretary of Agriculture and Natural Resources may waive the condition requiring cultivation. The Secretary of Agriculture and Natural Resources, if he sees fit, may order the sale to be made without public auction, at a price to be fixed by said Secretary, or the lease to be granted without auction, at a rental to be fixed by him. In either case it shall be a condition that the purchaser or lessee shall use the land for the purpose for which he has applied for it, and for no other purpose, and that the violation of this violation condition shall give rise to the immediate rescission of the sale or lease, as the case may be, and to the forfeiture to the Government of all existing improvements.
