Today the Cabinet Will Decide
The Fate of Chief Forester
Letter Arouses Ire of the
Executive.
EPISTLE OF PINCHOT
is READ IN SENATE
Following Which There Was a
Hurried Call for Cabinet
Meeting and the Session
Was a Heated One.

Washington. D. c., Jan. 7.-Gifford
Pinchot's fate as an officer of the
government is trembling in the bal
ance.
The ACCESSIBILITY of his removal from
office as chief forester of the United
States was considered seriously at a
White House conference late yesterday
afternoon. Further consideration will
be given the matter today.
1t need surprise no one should the
president, following the cabinet meet
ing. announce his determination to sep
arate Pinchot from the government
service. If this extreme measure be
not taken it will be merely because
the president does not care further to
inflame public sentiment and wishes
instead to give the chief forester every
opportunity to prove or lose his case
before the joint investigating COM
mittee of congress. At the least a
sharp letter of reprimand will be sent
to Pinchot.
Pinehot's Letter Starts Trouble.
The forestry situation is in the dyna-
Iulc STATE now. 1Q1S COnO1IlOQ Is the
direct result of the reading in the SEN
ate yesterday by Senator Dolliver of
Iowa. of a letter from Mr. Pinchot. In
this letter Pinchot:
I. theoretically criticised president
for removing L. r. CLAWS from public
land service for his conduct in respect
to Cunningham land claims.
>. Declared CLAWS the most vigor
Gus defender of the peoples interests
3. Admitted that with his approval
one of his subordinates aided CLAWS in
preparing his charges against Secreta-
~ Ballinger.
4. Admitted that two Of his subor-
dinates. without his knowledge. direct
ed public attention to a national dan
ger.
). Admitted that these subordinates
transg-essed propriety. but considered
a reprfmand which he administered.
sufficient punishment.
6. Disclaimed any intention or de-
sire to shirl1 any responsibility for
what the men had done and commend
The Richmond palladium and sun-telegram. [volume] (Richmond, Ind.) 1907-1939, 1910-01-07

ed them for their conduct and declar-
ed them to be of peculiar value to the
government.
=. Impugned the intentions of high
officials of the interior department by
declaring that the Cunningham coal
lands were about to be awarded to
fraudulent claimants until CLAWS and
the forestry division officials took a
hand in the fight and prevented this
disposition of them.
President Calls His Cabinet.
Following of the reading the Pin.
chot letter and the debate which oc.
surred thereon in the senate. the pres
ident obtained an accurate statement
of what had transpired. He then tel
ephOned for Secretary Of State Knox
Secretary of the Treasury MacVeaugh
Attorney General Wickersham. and
Secretary of Agriculture Wilson to
come at once to the White House. Up
on their arrival the president explain.
ed what had occurred
Unquestionably this conference was
one Of the most heated of the admins
tration. President Taft expressed his
surprise that Mr.. Pinchot should have
written such a letter. He had over.
looked consistently actions Of the chief
forester, which. in his opinion justified
his removal long ago. he said. The
points to which exception especially
+ were taken were the following:
!. In sending his letter to Senator
Dolliver. Pinchot violated an order
prohibiting subordinate from making
any communications to congress or to
senator except through the head OF
his department.
>. Pinchot further violated a recent
instruction issued by the president for.
bidding him or any other officer of the
forestry service or the interior depart
ment from discussing the forestry con
troversy pending the congressional in
vestigation.
3. That Pinchot transgreSsed Off
cial propriety by inferentially CRITICS
ing the president of the United States.
4. That the impression given by the
Pinchot letter is that the president
wrongfully removed CLAWS.
>. That Pinchot evidently timed his
letter so as to take the edge off OF the
disclosures in defense of BallingeI
made by the attorney general. whose
reports to the president were trans
mitted to the senate yesterday.
Summary Dismissal Was Near.
There is no doubt that the DISPOSE
ton existed at the White House con
| ference summarily to dismiss Pinchot
1t was decided. however, to sleep or
the matter and bring it up for discus
sion at the cabinet meeting today. In
the conference yesterday afternoon
Secretary Ballinger had no part. and
indeed. knew nothing Of it. In the
, consideration which will be given tc

EXPECT GOVERNOR STUBS

The committee on arrangements for
the banquet of the Young Mems
Christian Association, met yesterday
afternoon and determined to hold the

II, in the gymnasium of the associa-
ton building.
The dependence of the committee on
Gov. w. Ross Stubs of Kansas &C
cepting its invitation to be present and
deliver the principal address of the
occasion was the cause for the date
not being set earlier. Although the
committee has no assurance that Gov

of the opinion that he will be, as he ex-
poets to 60 to Washington, D. c., on
January 10, and he has promised that

Ballinger will not he expected to par
ticipate. 1t manifestly would be i'm
proper for him to give advice or for
the president to ask for it.
1t was made clear that the president
deeply regrets that Mr.. Pinchot has
taken a course of such gravity as TO
necessitate the consideration OF the
question of his removal. The presi-
dent was urged last summer to request
Mr.. Pinchot to resign. He declined
to follow the suggestion and later ex.
pressed the hope that the chief forester
and the secretary of the interior would
work in harmony.

Fender ORDINANCE
PETITION STARTED.
Father of Girl Killed by Car
Gets Signatures to Request
for Legislation

BERKELEY, May 19.--J. o. Davis.
local attorney, whose daughter was
killed two years ago by a Telegraph
avenue car, secured 1000 initiative pc
titions this morning and began to
gather signatures to initiate legisla-
ton in regard to fender ordinance.
The council recently passed to print
new fender law, similar to the one
adopted by Oakland, but Davis and
number of others declare that the law
is too broad. and does not force the
traction company to protect pedestrians
from being thrown under the wheels of
the cars
The ordinance which Davis would
have the people of Berkeley vote on
will require that the cars be not only
equipped with tenders but adequate
wheel guards.
Davis claims that the council has
held out for two types of tenders on
account of the little expense to the
traction companies, and he proposes
through the initiative clause In the
Berkeley charter to ask the people of
Berkeley to vote on the project.
c. A. Sherman, we'll known inn
provement club worker, is backing
Davis.

INSTRUCTOR Will
lecture ABROAD
Fritz Whittier of California Uni
versity Starts for Tour
of Europe

BERKELEY, May 19.-Fritz WHITTIER,
instructor in German at the University
Of California, who left this city yester-
day for a six months tour of Europe,
has been requested to lecture at the
Universities of London. Paris, Freiburg
(Baden) and Munich, his subject to be
Art and Life in California"
WHITTIER proposes to study the lit
erary relations of Germany and Amer
lea and during his tour he will visit
with the heads of several of the most
noted literary and educational institu-
lions of the world. He will remain IN
Berlin some time as the guest of Ger
many's foremost university, where he
viii carry on research work pertaining
to social movement in art and litera
ture.
At the close of his trip WHITTIER will
visit with relatives and old school
friends at Freiburg, where he was born
and educated, having been graduated
from the University Of Freiburg with
high credentials. BY many WHITTIER is
considered one of the most efficient
students of art and literature, his work
and comment on both subjects having
evoked favorable criticism from the
most noted men of the day. He will
no doubt return to Berkeley more than
ever fitted to supply the classes over
which he presides with interesting data
and equipped with advanced methods in
art and literary instruction.
