ONE WAY PlNCHOTIsM
 BUILT UP MONOPOLY

Following are some of the spe- cific charges made against Pin chotism by Congressman Hum- phrey of Washington, in his at tack on that brand of conserva- tion in the House on June znd:
 One-third of area of reserves has no forests.
 Millions of acres of Su-called forests are sheep ranges and oth- er millions are deserts.
 Forest service creates forest reserves over these deserts and gives the Santa Fe railroad 935,- 900 acres of lieu land scrip.
 This scrip was then used t" grab good lands, and the Santa Fe secures 75O,000 acres of the best lands in the public domain for it's worthless deserts.
 Under this arrangement 53,000 acres of the best timbered lands in the state of Washington pass ed to the Santa Fe road.
 Northern Pacific exchanges mountain tops for l50,000 acres of Washington timber lands and sells these same lands to the .Weyerhaeusers.
 Same railroad exchanges it's worthless Montana lands for 240,000 acres of scrip and takes more good timber land from the public domain.
 Annual crop of timber estimat- ed by the service is 6,000,OO0,000 feet.
 . Annual cut, as told by chief forester's report, is only 7 per cent of the crop.
 In figures, million dollars worth of timber was sold and fourteen million dollars worth routed on the ground.
 Timber crop has been wasted, while the price of lumber to the consumer has steadily advanced.
 The American Forestry Asso- citation is the parent organization of the federal forest service. Ev- cry lumber king in the country holds membership in the Amer jean Forestry Association.
 Forest service is piling up mill lions of deficit, while it's resour- ces, the timber products, sare wasted.
 At present rate of cutting 1t will take 5000 years to remove present timber on reserves in this state, allowing nothing for new growth.
 State of Washington alone has lost s6O, 100000 in eight years present conservation practices.
