P|NCHOT HERE TO
STUMP THE STATE
Former Chief Forester Refuses to
Talk for Publication
About BaIIinger
Associated Press1

OAKLAND, July 1S.-Gifford Pin
chot who arrived here tonight for tne
purpose of making speeches for TWO
weeks in behalf of Hiram Johnson
the Lincoln Roosevelt league candldate
for governor, refused to discuss the
report that Secretary Balllnger mac
been exonerated by the congressional
committee which has been investigat-
ing the Ballinger-Pinch controversy
II never speak for publication re-
garding Mr.. Ballinger," said Pinchot
decidedly.
Pinchot also refused to discuss Col.
Roosevelt's stand on insurgency and
other topics of intense interest at the
present time.
"Pll let Mr.. Roosevelt talk for him
self" he said But when 1t came to
the question Of conservation, that was
another thing, and Pinchot expressed
himself freely. Charging that the
Pickett bill under the provision or
which President Taft on July with
drew S,495,731 acres of public land
contained joker. he spoke at length:
1.-THE Pickett bill withdraws all this
land from entry, but leaves 1t open at
all times to exploration, discovery and
occupation under the mining laws of
the United States, so far as the same
apply to minerals other than coal, oil,
gas and phosphates," he said.
"There is nothing to prevent the
large corporations from entering this
land. ostensibly for mining purposes,
after they have shown that they have
found small quantities of gold or other
metal.
"This withdrawn land should not
have been open to mineral location
at all, or q provision should have been
made in the law for preserving the
power sites for the government"
Pinchot said this "joker' was point
ed out by himself and his friends be-
fore the law was passed.
Pinchot is the guest of DR.. George
C. Pardee, former governor of Cali
fornia. He opens his campaign for
Johnson in a speech at San Francisco
tomorrow night.

SAN DIEGO. July 1S.-What is
claimed by the police to be the attempt
of an amateur to blow the safe in the
city passenger office of the San Diego

was discovered when the office was
opened this morning.
Two holes had been drilled into the
safe door, the combination knob
knocked off and giant powder instead
of dynamite or nitro glycerine used.
The safe had been turned around so
that the robber could work undetected
from the street. An electric drill was
used. The explosion failed to open the
