we'll for us to rejoice too freely In the
slices the special interests have given
as from the great loaf OF the prop.
erty of all the people,
"The people Of the United States
have been the complacent victims of
a system of plunder often perpetrated
by men who would have been surpris.
ed beyond measure to be accused OF
wrongdoing, and many of whom in
their private lives were model citizens
But they have suffered from a curious
moral peryersion by which 1t becomes
praiseworthy 20 do for corporation
things which they would refuse with
the loftiest scorn to do for themselves.
Fortunately for us all that deluslon is
passing rapidly away.
1T is the honorable distinction OF
the Forest Service that It has been
more constantly more violently. and
more bitterly attacked by the repres-
entatiyes of the special interests in
recent years than any other govern
ment bureau. These attacks have In
creased In violence and bitterness just
In proportion as the service has of.
fered effective opposition to preda.
tory wealth. The more successful we
have been in preventing land grabbing
and the absorption of water power by
the special interests. the more ingen-
ious, the more devious and the more
dangerous these attacks nave become,
"A fayorite one is to assert that the
forest service, in it's zeal for the pub
lie welfare, has played ducks and
brakes with the acts Of congress.
"The fact Is, on the contrary, that
the service has had warrant OF law for
everything II has done. Not once since
II was created has any charge OF H.
legality, despite the most searching
investigation and the bitterest al.
tack, ever led too reversal or reproof
by either house Of congress or by any
congressional committee.
Another and unusually plausible,
form Of attack, is to demand that all
land not now bearing trees shall be
thrown out of the national forests.
"Still another attack, nearly sue.
oessful two years ago, was an attempt
to prevent the Forest Service from
telling the people, through the press,
that it Is accomplishing for them, and
how much this nation needs the
forest
Since the Forest Service called pub
lie attention to the rapid absorption
OF the water power sites and the
threatening growth Of a great water
power monopoly. the attacks upon Il
have increased with marked rapidlty.
! anticipate that they will continue to
do SO. Still greater opposition is
promised in the near future. There
is but one protection-an awakened
public opinion That Is why | give

Conservation Declared BY
Pinchot to Be Moral Issue

New York. Dec. 27.-speeial inter
ests have made repeated attacks on
the United States Forest Service and
these attacks have increased in vio-

THE American people have evi.

natural resources must be oonserv-
ed That is good, but II settles only
half the question. For whose benefit
shall they be conserved-for the bene-

will be so dlficult to straddle, as the
great question between special inter
est and equal opportunity; between
the privileges of the few and the
rights Of the many. between govern
ment by men for human welfare and
government by money for profit, be-
tween the men who stand for the
Roosevelt policies and the men who
stand against them This is the es-
sence Of the conservation problem to-
day.
"The conservation issue is moral
issue. When a few men get posses
sion OF one of the necessaries OF life,
either through ownership of natural
resource or through unfair business
methods, and use that control to ex-
tort undue profits, as in the recent
cases of the Sugar Trust and the beef
packers, they injure the average man
without good reason, and they are
guilty of a moral wrong.
Il believe In one form of govern
ment and believe in the Golden Rule
But we must face the truth that mon
opoly of the sources of production
makes It impossible for vast numbers
Of men and women to earn fair liv-
ing. Right here the conservation
question touches the daily life of the
great body Of our people, who pay the
cost OF special privilege And the
price is heavy. That price may be the
chance to save the boys from the sa-
looms and the corner gang, and the
girls from worse. and to make good
citizens Of them instead Of bad, for
an appalling proportion of the trag.
edies Of life spring directly from the
