 "The former chief of field service of the general land office, H. H. Schwartz. stated officially Q909) that the timber and stone act
 The Schwartz Statement
 Has resulted in the sale of over 12.- coo, eco acres of valuable timber lands, of which fully 100000 acres were trans ferred to corporate or individual timber land investors by the entrymen. These lands brought to the people, or general government, a gross sum of $30. 900, 900. At the date of sale they were reasonably worth s240, ,0OO000 The profit of over s200- 000 600 went. not to the needy settler en- gagged In subduing the wilderness. but to the wealthy investors. Not over frac- tional part of 1 per cent of the timber purchased from the United States under this act is held. consumed or even cut by the men and women who made the entries.
 There is now left in Continentiail United States about 2,2O0 00O, 900 board feet of privately owned standing timber, of which 1,747,0o0 Gin the Investigation was covered in great detail by the bureat. This area includes the Pacific northwest, the southern pine region and the lake states, and contains 80 per cent of all the private timber in the country In addi- tion there is about 539,00o, ,000000 feet in the national forests and about 5000, GOO, coo feet on other non-private lands. Thus, the total amount of standing timber in Continental United States Is about 2,S0,- GOO, 600 board feet The present annual drain upon the supply of saw timber Is about 50, 900, 100000 feet. At this rate the tiInber now standing, without allowance for growth or decay, would last only ., years.
 "The present commercial value of ths privately owned standing timber in the country now, including the value Of the land. is estimated (though such an esti- mate must be very rough), as at least $6.0 900, GOO. Ultimately the consuming public will have to pay such prices for lumber as will give this timber far greater value"
