actively supported this surrender of

Mr.. +. +. Williams,
Editor Cecil Wing, Elkton Nd.
My Dear Mr.. Williams
The Conservation of natural re-
sources has become one Of the largest
issues of our time. In the campaign
of 1912, it formed one Of the chief
planks in the Democratic platform,
and was often endorsed in Mr.. Will
sons speeches. His inaugural ad-
dress committed him fully to support
it.
For these reasons it is important to
know what the Wilson Administration
has done. As one man deeply interest
ed in Conservation and familiar with
the record, | am writing to lay it
briefly before you.
When he took office, Mr.. Wilson
ceased to say much on Conservation,
preferring to let the members of his
Cabinet speak for him. After his in
auguration, the friends of Conserva-
ton, regardless of partisanship. Of
tered him their help in putting the
Conservation policies through. The
opportunity invited action. The tight

had created Il living body of public
opinion which lacked only official
leadership to save what resources still
remained in public hands. 1t seemed
at first that President Wilson would
lead.
At the outset the work of the Will
son Administration in Conservation
was good, Congress passed. and Mr..
Wilson signed, the Alaska Railroad

nent control of coal lands in Alaska.

Their enactment. SO he does for his
