PINCHOT-BALLlNG ROW
Is MADE DOUBLY INTENSE
BY Associated Press.


Washington, Jan. 6.-The Ballinger-
Pinchot controversy was today made
doubly intense by the reading in the
senate OF a letter addressed to Sena-
tor Dolliver by Pinchot, in which the
course adopted by l.. r. CLAWS, with
the assistance of Price and Shaw, OF
the bureau of forestry, was warmly
approved. In this communication the
chief of the forestry bureau not only
Npheld the criticism of Secretary
Ballinger, but suggested that the
president himself had been mistaken
in the facts when he removed CLAWS.
Pinchot's letter called for a severe
rebuke from Senator Hale for having
ignored the recent order by the presi-
den directing no subordinate officer
to give information concerning the af-
fairs of the government, except to s,l-
perior officers. Hale suggested the
letter tended to prejudice public opin-
ion.
Senator Jones's resolution for an in
vestigation of the interior department
and forestry service was referred to
the committee on public lands.
The house postponed action on a
similar resolution introduced by
HUMPHREY.
In Pinchot's letter he referred to
CLAWS as the most vigorous defend
er of the peoples interests"

closed last night.
Fearing the machine would not
