For Stnte Control.

But under the terms of the platform
adopted in executive session by the
nine western states represented yes
JeTday bureaucratic control is asked 10
give place 10 state control and only a
cooperation from the nations capital.
1t Is desired that the forestry depart
ment and other branches of the interior
department continue 10 exist and carry
on experiments, but that the sovereign
states of the west take charge of their
own forests in the patrOling, leasing
and other features and handle them
directly. They ask that a department
similar TO the experimental work in the
agricultural department be carried on
for the general good but that ali reve-
nues from state lands in the forests
ana from water power be turned into
the state treasures directly. and the
state pay the burden for the patrOling
and protection of the reserves
Senator SmOOt has declared himself
in accord with the plan to have ali
agricultural areas removed from the
forest reserves opened to homestead.
The Utah senator has admitted that in
the many millions OF acres in forest
reserves in western states, there are
dOu btless hundreds of thousands of
acres Of agricultural land, which should
be taken from the reserves. In Idaho
during the last few years more than
GOO, 900 acres of this class of land has
been taken from the reserves and
opened for settlement.

when they hold their session in the
Minnesota city early next month.
Efforts have been made by Senator
Reed SmOOt and others TO get some
idea of the stand of the west relative
TO the important phases OF the conser-
walton movement. But in nearly every
state which has complained of the
bureaucratic control, there has not been
a concerted movement for any changes.
Some have desired the law changed in

OF this conflict. those who have had

Not All Harmony.

Ii was not all harmony among the
governors in the executive session yes
terday They appeared in the office of
Governor Spry promptly at o'clock
and remained in executive session until
after II. when they had finished their
program and adjourned. Governor Hay
was most drastic in his demands that
conservation be turned over 10 the
states completely, and even went 80
far in this line as to state that the
government should turn over all lands
within a state 10 the commonwealth.
The other chief executives. however,
baked at this plan. and IL was finally
decided that the governors would mere
ly ask that the conservation policy be
handled more generally by the states
than the bureau at Washington.

Between now and the St. Paul meet
ing the governors viii collect data for
presentation at the st. Paul meeting.
1t Is charged that many infractiOns
have been made by officials of the for
estry bureau, that $50 men have been
practically running matters TO suit
themselves, that forest supervisors have
been receiving special advantages on
the ranges which have been denied to
others and that rangers have been
most autocratic in their power. Spe-
cific instances will be compiled and
taken before the special congressional
investigating committee under Senator
Nelson, which will be in session in st.
Paul during the days of the cOnserVa-
ton congress. The purpose win be to
tell the congressional committee of the
actual and practical workings of the
bureau as at present.
Attending governor were much sur
prised by the wonderful grasp of the
conservation problem shown by Senator
Smoot during the open discussions dur
ing the two days. The Utah senator
showed deep study of the subject for
years and held at his very finger tips
items from the broadest view Of con-
servatiOn TO the minutest details. Z
was shown time and time again that
he knew more instances in each of the
states than the governors themselves
and quoted instances 70 strengthen his
stand on various lines.
