TAFT ANSWERS PINCHOT QUERY
 ON COAL LANDS
Especial from United Press.)

Especial from United Press.)
 Washington, Nov. 15-An interesting the Ballinger case, today, when Gif- ford Pinchot gave out the White House answer to his letter, urging the President to supervise, personally, ac- tion on the Cunningham claims on Alaska coal lands. The letter was written by Secretary Norton, on be- half of President Taft, and says:
 "On the 1st of June, last, the Secre- tary of the Interior invited the atten- tion of the President to the Cunning ham coal claims, consisting of B coal entries in the Juneau land district, of Alaska, of approximately 160 acres each and suggested that, in view of the public interest realting to the dis position of these claims, the Presi- dent direct that no final action be taken by the General Land Office look ling to theissuance of patents therin without first advising the President of theaction contemplated. Under date of June 6. 1910. the President issued the direction recommended, and on June 8, 1910, this order was commun- cated to the commissioner of the Gen. eral Land Office, and that official is- sued orders to his subordinates in &C., cordance with this direction. The President further directs me to say that. if you desire to submit a brief on the Questlon oI lssuihg these pd- tents. you may do so and forward the same to this office. He fs not advis- ed when the evidence will be submit ted to him, but he thinks it would be we'll if your briefs were presented be- for the first of December"
 In order to carry out the administra- ton plan to refer the case to the courts, it would be necessary to have bill passed by both branches of Con- gross. Ballinger proposes to attach the proposition to public lands bill, concerning which there is considerable difference of opinion among the states men, and doubt is expressed in Con- gressional circles whether the mea- sure can be passed in the forthcom- ing short session.
