PRIATED  STATE LAND MAY BE DISPOSED OF PURSUANT TO PARAGRAPH (B) OF THIS
SUBDIVISION. FOR THE PURPOSES OF THIS SECTION "MUNICIPALITY" SHALL  MEAN
A CITY, TOWN, OR VILLAGE.
  (B)  The commissioner of general services may, from time to time, sell
unappropriated state lands at public auction or by sealed bids  in  such
parcels  as  he  deems  for the best interests of the state. Previous to
every sale, he shall fix the lowest sum at which each lot may  be  sold,
and shall designate at least one newspaper in the county where the lands
to be sold are situated, in which the commissioner shall cause notice of
the time, place and description of sale to be published, at least once a
week for four weeks, successively, before the sale. Such notice need not
be  published  in  any  other paper or papers, and any statute requiring
additional publication of notices or advertisements by state officers or
a department, board, bureau or commission of the state shall  not  apply
to  such  notice. The commissioner may designate a representative of his
office to conduct such sale. All such sales shall be held at the  county
seat  of  the  county  where  the property is situated, unless otherwise
directed by the commissioner.

such broker out of monies available therefor. Uniform rates  of  commis-
sion  shall,  from  time to time, be fixed by the commissioner but shall

paid  for  the procuring of any sale unless (1) written authority of the
broker to make such offer on a  form  acceptable  to  the  commissioner,
signed  by  the  person  for  whom he is acting, shall be filed with the
commissioner before the day of the sale and unless (2) the broker  shall
furnish  to  the commissioner evidence in such form and extent as he may
require establishing that the purchaser was procured as  the  result  of
the  broker's services. In no event shall a broker who is paid a commis-
sion by the commissioner as herein provided accept any other  commission
or  fee from any person or source for brokerage services relating to the
sale of such unappropriated state land.
  S 2. This act shall take effect immediately.
