LA TOILETTE
 SCORES TAFT'S
 LAND POLICY
(Special from United Press !

Madison, Wis, Aug. FFollowing President Taft's message to Congress in explanation of his Alaskan policy, Senator LaFollette, in the current is- sue of LaFollette's Weekly, character ized Taft's present conservation poli- cy as ''the same old Ballinger policy repudiated by the public"
 "Ballinger is now gone, crowned with Presidential laurels," says Sen ator LaFollette, "but Ballingerism remains. This is the gleaning from Taft's statement on Controller Bay lands.
 .'The manner in which Taft let Ryan get foothold. on this strategic trates the Taft method. The act it. self is important as showing how very insecure are our valuable na- tural possessions under the Taft poli- cy.''
 LaFolIette declares Roosevelt kept the terminal lines from individuals by placing them in the Chugach forest reserve but Taft, "at the request of Ryan, took them out of the reserve for the very purpose of letting them go to private individuals and corpor- ations.'
 Taft and Ryan, he declares. aver Ryan was not acting for the Morgan Guggenheim syndicate. But the President is not so utterly positive about this as he is about the 'fcti- tious' character of the Dick to Dick letters. In the very recent history, 1t is not to be wondered at that the President did not refuse Ryan's re- quest until he had been given proof positive.
 Ryan knew all about this order of Tafts before 1t was issued and hence, of course. before the public knew it. Ryan's surveys were made before the order was signed.
 ''Taft admits the essential facts upon which the conservationists base their criticism. He let the land go, that is the important thing. What induced him to let it go in this unus- ual manner and to these particular capitalists, may be disclosed during the investigation now under way.
 'Tafts explanation does not ex- plain, his defense does not defend. It merely throws his policy into more striking contrast to the Roosevelt policy"
