upon the approval of the Secretary of Agriculture, the timber to be
selected or exchanged may be taken from the Government lands within
the metes and bounds of the national forests within the State of
Montana, or, (2) to obtain for the United States the complete title

-STATUTE-
(a) The Secretary of the Interior is authorized to accept title
to any non-Federal lands, interests in lands, buildings, or other
property, real or personal, within the authorized boundaries of the
Glacier National Park, as now or after August 8, 1946, established,

exchange for the non-Federal property so to be acquired, the
Secretary of the Interior is authorized to convey to the grantors
of such property, or to their nominees, any federally owned lands,
interests in lands, buildings, or other property, real or personal,
within the authorized boundaries of the Glacier National Park,
located in the State of Montana and administered by the National
Park Service, which are of approximately equal value, as determined
by the Secretary, to the property being acquired. In order to
facilitate the making of such exchanges, the Secretary of the
Interior may enter into agreements for the reservation in
conveyances to the United States, or for the grant in conveyances
from the United States, of such estates for years, life estates, or
other interests as may be consistent, in his judgment, with the
accomplishment of the purposes of this section, but all such
limitations shall be considered in determining the equality of the
interests to be exchanged.
(b) Any property acquired pursuant to this section shall, upon
acceptance of title thereto, become a part of the Glacier National
Park, and shall be subject to all laws applicable to such area. The
Secretary of the Interior is authorized to issue such regulations
as he deems necessary for carrying out the purposes of this
