Said outstanding one-year leases will expire on various dates and upon their expiration, the lands embraced therein will become subject to new leases without prejudice, however, to the rights of the present lessees to file timely renewal applications.
Any and all persons desiring to lease any part thereof for grazing purposes under the authority of said Sec. 15 of the Taylor Grazing Act, as amended, or those having adverse or conflicting claims to such lands should file proper grazing lease applications or notice of their claims in the appropriate United States District Land Office or in the General Land Office for lands in States in which there are no District Land Offices.

Said one year leases will in no way be disturbed as a result of this action, nor will the preference rights of the holders of such leases be jeopardized thereby.
Notice is also hereby given that all lands not on the date hereof subject to lease under this section of the act, by reason of their appropriation or reservation, but which become subject to lease at a later date, are hereby offered
fo r lease as of the date they become subject to such appro priation and anyone desiring to assert a preference right to lease isolated or disconnected tracts of seven hundred and sixty acres or less of such lands will be allowed 90 days from the date they become subject to lease within which to file proper lease application.
