Real Fight to Con-
serve Our Forests.

Washington, Jan. Some of the great
battles in the fight for conservation is
just ahead" declared Clifford Pinchot
former government forester. in an adj
dress at the annual meeting here, today,
of the American Forestry Association
He attacked a movement, which, he said,
was on foot to wipe out the old dividing
line between state and national action
in conserving natural resources and to
turn the national forests over to the
states He described the movement as
one "in which men of high principle are
fighting side by side with men. whose
principles live in their pockets and for
that reason ii is doubly TO be feared. E"
These success of these forces, said Mr..
Plnehot, in conclusion, would mean the
defeat of the whole policy of conserva-
ton and the ultimate passage of untold
millions of public property into the hands
of men who do not need any more of it
in order to be perfectly sure of three
square meals day.
Other speakers were Secretary Fisher,
Chief Government Forester Henry
Graves, Prof. H. Fl. Chapman of Yale
University. Chas. l.. Pack, president Ma
tional Conservation Congress, and W. b.
Greedy. L. c. Kneipp r. c. Stuart and
William l.. Hall of the forest service.
The association concluded its convention
with the election of officers.
Officers of the American Forestry
Association elected include the fol-
lowing; Pres, Henry S. Drinker.

KELLOGG REPLIES.
Says Government Suit Against His
Company Has No Ground.

The Journal has published allegations
of the government in a suit brought by
the L, S. attorney general under the
Sherman antitrust law against the
kellogg Toasted Corn Flake Co., of
Battle Greek, Mich. Now the company
asks that its side of the case be made
public. as only the governments state
ment has gone forth.
IAN care to say now" said MIR,
Kellogg. lis that the whole matter is
complete surprise to us. We adopted
OR policy with a very honest desire
not only to conform to the letter of
the law, but to its spirit. and the things
we aimed 70 accomplish by our SELL
ing plan are the very things for which
we understood the sherman and other
conspiracy laws We're designed-rthe
protection of the consumer and small
dealer in the same Aaenalitys OF oppor
tunity enjoyed by trusts and big buy
ere If these things are contrary to
law, we shall be much surprised.
I'VE are surprised to find ourselves
charged with eXacting contracts from
iebbers in the grocery trade. because
we nave no contracts with the trade
whatever and will have no trouble in
proving it.
I'VE have acted under the best legal
advice and supposed we were entirely
within our rights as owners of our
own brand CT goods upon which wide
spread public approval has placed the
stamp of quality.
About three months ago an agent
of the Department of Justice called
on us and investigated our selling plan,

frankly stated thai he believed we
were acting legally. He regarded our

Sidney G. Fisher, writing in the
Public Ledger, throws light on the
workings OF the system IN this wise:
"In one sense it is the most pra2tl'
cal form of government that was ever
concocted. At least, that Is What the
bosses and corruptionIsts have always
thought Of It. For half a century and
more they have found 1t exactly suited
to their purposes. They hide them,
selves behind 1t and among its com
plications. There is no definite and
concentrated responsibility anywhere
in it. You cannot call any. personsor
six perso& to prompt account for any
evil"
It is pretty much the same story
everywhere, The MISREPRESENTATION
erous Councilmen represent the peo'
ple. and the ractis that they represent
the bosses, who are seeking to eX'
plot the people. The bosses are al
ways ION the job" and the people are

can tell who is dealing.
