Pinchot. of the National Conserya ton
Association, and former head of the
government forest service, In state
rnent issued to-day held that the loss
of property and life in the recent and
present forest fires was unnecessary
The disastrous results. he said, were
traceable to the unpreparedness to deal
with the fire situation. He scored
members of Congress who have op-
posed appropriations for the proper
eauipment of forest rangers, and In
that connection named Senator Hey
burn, of Idaho, whose home town. Wal
lace. Idaho, suffered serious loss: Sen
ator Carter, Of Montana, and Repre-
sentative Mondell, of Wyoming.
THE lesson from these forest fires
is perfectly clear" said Mr.. Pinchot.
when a city suffers from a great hre
1t does not retrench in its fire depart
ment. but strengthens it. That is what
the nation must do on the national for
ests.
"The men in Congress like Hepburn.
Carter and Mcndell. who have made
light of the efforts of the forest SER
vice to prepare itself to prevent just
such calamity as this. have in effect
been lighting on the side Of the fires
against the general welfare. II even
a small fraction of the loss from the
present fires had been expended in ad-
ditional patrol and preventive equip
ment some or perhaps nearly all Of
the loss could have been avoided"
