United States Excels in Tolerance.

Something has been said of the in
tolerance of other countries. Mr.. Taft
went on. Tolerance does not exist in
other countries as in our own, but We
must know that tolerance in this coun
try will have its beneficent effects all
over the world.
The attitude of the American people
on that subject cannot but bring about
a better condition. 1 don't need to
preach patience to your race. l don't
need to preach persistence to you. L
don't believe in progress overnight
Turning to the topic of progress to-
ward world peace, the President said:
Il had dream that we were going
to take long step toward universal
peace, but after negotiating treaty
with England and treaty with France
I awOke." He explained that through
treaties between this country and Euro
pean nations and interlocking treaties to
follow he had hoped great arbitral
court could be established.
That was my dream he said. I'VE
negotiated the first two treaties with
England and France and then l woke
up. It's bound to come. however, be-
cause progress in this direction cannot
be defeated l hope on in spite of
this nightmare that the Senate gave

TIMBER MONOPOLY
IS FEARED BY CONANT
Commissioner of Corporations
Urges an Increase of Our
National Forests.

The concentration into the hands of a
few powerful interests of an enormous
percentage of the timber lands of the
United States has created a problem so
grave for the nation. in the judgment of
Luther COnant, jr., commissioner Of cor
porations. that he has recommended to
President Taft that the existing national
forests not only be retained by the fed
eral government. but Increased as far as
practicable.
This note of warning was sounded by
the commissioner in forwarding to the
President the full text of part 1 of the
bureau of corporations investigation of
the lumber industry made by direction of
Congress. A summary of this report,
showing the extent of concentrated con-
troll of timber lands. was sent to the
President and published nearly two years
ago.
To increase government ownership Of
forest lands. the commissioner urged that
the forests of Alaska DE included in re-
serve. as we'll as all timbered lands re-
covered in forfeiture suits. He advises
further searching inquiry into land grants
of the past. with the view of instituting
additional forfeiture suits if the facts
justify the procedure. =. E.
Mr.. COnant warns that attempts are
still being made to secure the transfer
of public timber lands to private owners
under the same pleas of settlement which
In the past often proved wholly specious
and insincere."
Railways Large Holders.
After enormous sales, the Commissioner
points out that the Southern Pacific, the
Northern Pacific and the Atchison, To-
peka and Santa Fe own together b 800
COO acres of timbered and nom timbered
lands, an area large as England
Conservation a Pretext by Some.
Despite the great increase i'm stumpage
values in recent years, Commissioner Co.
nant foresees a growing rise in prices be-
cause of the diminished humber supply and
increasing population. Mr.. Conant takes
sharp issue with suggestions. amounting
he says, to almost propaganda at the
present time. that the price Of stumpage
should equal the cost of growing trees
The idea he adds, seems incredible when
ii is considered that standing timber is
the free gift of nature. requiring from
scores to hundreds of years for its
growth. The proposal brought forth in
the name of conservation and seized upon
by some lumbermen. he confines. lis a
proposal deliberately to hasten the evil
which conservation ought to moderate
the evil Of excessive prices"
