Washington Letter,
BY Edward Heating,
CoHgressman-at-Large
From Colorado.

The conservation Shoe is begin
ming to pisch the Eastern foot,
So long as Mr.. Pinchot and his
supporters confined their activi-
ties to locking up the lands of
the West, they received the earn
est and all. but-unanimous sup
port CT the people of the East
and South. But when they at
tempted to extend Federal con-
troll to the. gteat Manageable
streams of the region East of the
Mississippi and began planning
to make the waterpower devel-
opad from those streams as a
source of revenue for the Nation
al government. they quickly dis
covered that they could no longer
count onlrlany Of their cid time
friends.
What was sauce for the Vest
ern Goose was by no means
sauce for the Eastern Gander.
This change in sentiment man.
ifested itself in striking fas' ion
in the National Conservation Con-
gress recently held in this city.
Unfortunately none of the Color
ado papers gave an adequate re-
port Of the proceedings, and III
most cases altogether overlooked
the features which were of great
est significance to Colo-adoans.
The National Conservation Con-
gress was organized and has al
ways been controlled by M. Pin
chot and his friends. The Con-
gress of 1912, appointed a COM
mittee on the water power prob
lem with instructions to report
to the Congress of 1913, in Wash
ington. This is what the polite
ians would call a and-picked'
committee. Every member was
supposed to be a dyed-in-t the. wool
disciple Of Pinchotism, and the
report was looked forward to as
the final word in the matter of
conservation Of water power.
PINCHOT MEN DIVIDED.
When the Congress convened
it was discovered that the water
power committee was split wide
open. The majority favored
State control and even went so
far as to insist that water pow
er trust, properly regulated
might be a very good thing. Mr
Pinchot and the other minority
members vigorously dissented, ad
vocating Federal control and de.
nouhcing everything suggestive
Of monopoly.
This war of conservationists
was highly entertaining to the
hand full of Western delegates,
and we grinned contentedly for
we knew that conservation which
for years had been a sectional is
sue, had at last become a nation
al problem.
While MIR. Pinchot triumphed
in the convention his victory was
barren one. He can no longer
rely on the support Of the South
and East, and because of this di-
vision the West is placed in a po-
sition where it may hold the bal
ance of power. If the theories
of conservation are to be transla-
ted into Legislative action, and
thus made fixed national policy
the West must be consulted and
its opinions must be respected.
THE WESTERN IDEA"
Right here let me say that l
believe the people of the West,
