1t was pitiful. he said. to see the habit
people had formed of being moved by
emotions rather than bv straight think

a goal which they do not understand,
nor the way by which they reach it. He
considered it a most difficult thing for
people to be induced to think clearly,
and until they do democracy is not safe.
The hypnotic power of the orator over

wages this Department pays. We are
bound by law in this and even the
Governor cannot make il different
1t is law and cannot be changed
until the converting of another Legis-
lature. No one realizes these low
wages any better than as Forest
Commissioner and they should he
changed but we cannot do anything
until the converting of another Legis-
lature as l stated. During the last
Legislature this matter was discuss
ed both by the Committee on For
estry and various members of the
Legislature. The War had Just clos
ed at that time and everyone was
looking for things to come down but
instead of that they have been going
up. But we will work together and
you will have to rely on the Com
missioner and the Department toSuse
you just the best we can and try and
make up in small deeds in part at
least for the low wages. For in
stance your time used to begin when
you were on the ground and some
times it took many days to get there
but now your time begins the min
ute you leave home and you get YOUR
pay from then. I don't know as it
was necessary to mention the wage
condition to you and l hope you will
take it in the same kindly spirit as ]
have given it to YOU
I'm closing l want to say again that
appreciate more than | can tell YOU
the good work you have done in the
past and I anticipate that the work
will be even better in the future for
we are coming to know each other
better and have better cooperation
