HARD FIGHT FOR BALLINGER

Richard Achilles Ballinger. secretary of the In
terror. has prepared to put up the greatest fight
of his career. When clifford Pinchot threw down
the gauntlet and forced President Taft to GUST him
as forester he did not make things easier for Mr..
Balnger. With Pinchot In office Ballinger felt
that he could do less harm than If he WIS free to
express his opinions openly as he is now out OF
the governments employ.
Consequently Mr. Ballinger recognized at once
that his fight with Pinchot became all the harder
when Pinchot wrote the letter to Senator Dolliver
that brought about his discharge. Pinchot is now
placed in the position of prosecuting witness
against Ballinger. and when he goes on the stand
before the congressional investigating committee
he will not be merely a government witness.
