	SANTA FE PACIFIC RAILROAD v. U.S.
		Santa Fe states that the release it executed pursuant to section 321(b) of the 1940 Act did not apply to transactions under the 1897 Act, because the 1897 Act was directed to forest preservation and not to railroad land grants.
		Santa Fe states that the Secretary of the Interior's construction of section 321(b) over the years after 1940, before and after the Court's decision in Krug, confirms that a less sweeping scope of the 1940 Act was well understood by those charged with its administration.
		Santa Fe argues that Krug is distinguished on this ground, in that Krug concerned an application by Santa Fe to exercise lieu selection rights, and did not consider whether Santa Fe had a continuing property interest in the underlying base land pursuant to the patented land exception of the 1940 Act.
