said that there will be long lines of persons waiting to corral the wild horse if the national law is changed She said the Bureau of Land Management which has the authority to preserve the mustang has neither the staff or the money to do the job She said the federal agency "cannot carry out the controlled program" And she claims local government officials won't move Every time she goes to the Nevada State Legislature for help the bill is shuttled off to some committee dominated by cattlemen and farmers and the proposal never sees the light of day she said Mrs Johnston claims that ranchers turned their own branded horses on the range to roam free when the price of feed skyrocketed "Wild Horse Annie" became interested in the plight of the mustang in 1950 when she was driving from her ranch into Reno She sighted a truck overloaded with horses with one of the smaller ones being trampled to death She followed the truck to the slaughterhouse and vowed then to start her figlit RENO (UPI) For a quarter of a century "Wild Horse Annie" has fought to protect the free-roaming mustangs in the West but she may face one of her stiffest challenges this year To most ranchers and cattlemen in the 10 Western states the wild horse is a mangy animal who destroys the land for use by cattle But to Mrs Velma Johnston of Reno the mustang is a "representative of freedom" "There are some who are just waiting for the federal law to be amended" said Mrs Johnston in a speech at the University of Nevada here Tuesday "Once again we are engaged in a bitter battle in Congress and the law stands a good chance of being repealed this year" She was referring to legislation to once again allow the rounding up of the horses by airplanes Sen Paul Laxalt Rev is backing a move to ailow helicopters to be used in these roundups There have been complaints that since a 1971 federal law was enacted protecting the mustang that there has been a population explosion Ranchers and others say the wild horses are trampling the range land and eating the forage There is a federal study that says the rangeland in the West is severely overgrazed But it's not the fault of the "wild ones" according to Wild Horse Annie who gained the nickname after she carried her battle to Congress in the mid-1950's Using government figures Mrs Johnston did a study which concluded that wild horses and burros grazed only 29 per cent of the public lands in the West with the rest being taken up by cattle and other domestic animals "It's true our western range lands are in bad shape" she said "But the wild horses are not causing it all" She estimates there are 44000 free roaming horses in the Western states but at the turn of the century there were 2 million In Nevada alone shortly after World War II she says 100- 000 were scared out of their hiding places and led to slaughter for use as pet food The businessman who rounded up the mustang received 612 cents a pound But that figure has risen to 25 COIIE TO THE COOL
