Mr.. Ickes was comparatively

stead to direct the entire Depart
ment of the Interior. Up to that
time his name had figured chiefly
in Progressive Republican circles
in Illinois.
In 1912 he was county chairman
of the Bull Moose" campaign

Long before World War II
started, Mr.. Ickes was sharply
critical of Germany's policies. In
a speech in the winter of 1888, the
Interior Secretary attacked dicta-
tors and said that Germany's
treatment Of Jews carried that
nation back to "a period Of his
tory when man was unlettered

policy of conservation and addi-

the United States had no more
natural resources to exploit as
during the period when many o1
these were virtually given away
to private enterprise as means
of developing the country. His
policy resulted in heated criticism
from some quarters.
He was criticized too for using
Federal funds to promote public
hydroelectric power in competi-
ton with private utilities, and to
start slum clearance and low-coSt
housing in competition with pri-
vate contractors.

At a previous appearance before
