(4) Land entry records (order form NATF 84).................... 17.75 (5) Bounty land warrant application files (order form NATF Form 17.25 85)........................................................... (6) Pension files more than 75 years old (order form NATF Form 40 85)........................................................... (7) Military service files more than 75 years old (order form 17 NATF Form 86)................................................. - ---------------------------------------------------------------------- These records are maintain for general public access and while it is appropriate that reproduction fees be charged, I find it inappropriate that the public must further (in addition to federal appropriations and taxes) subsidize departmental operations. "We The People" should not be 'taxed twice' to access records intended for the public domain.
