WashtngtoD Charges of a eri
cas nature against Gilford Plnchot,
Chief of tha Forestry Bureau, were
made Monday in the House by
Smith of California and Mondell of
Wyoming, during consideration of
th agricultural appropriation bill.
Smith accused him of entering Into a
secret understanding with the city
of Los Angeles, with a Tlew to se
curing to the city raluable water
rights in the Owens Hirer Valley, as
against the interests of private par
ties baring prior claims. Mod doll
denounced him for, as be charged,
Illegally paying the exponses of for
est officials in attending convention
' In the west. In which the gorurnment
had no part, and also for spending
gorernment money to boost his
bureau In the newspapers. Mr. Pln
chot was defended by Pollard of Ne
braska and Scott of Kansas.
Smith of California denounced the
Forestry Service for attempting ti
acquire the Owens Valley In Cali
fornia. While the debate wns Klnn on,
Pollard of NYbriiska went to the
telephone and had a talk with Mr.
Plnchot. When he enmo back Into
the chamber he declared that Mr.
Plnchot had said that the entire
California delegation, "Including Mr.
Smith," had gone to the department
"and requested and almost demanded
that this reserve be created for the
purpose of furnishing a water sup
ply to Los Anneles," and that the
city was entirely dependent on thin
supply. "Now," ho chared, "Mr.
Smith comes here and tries to show
that the diirtment Is trying to cre
ate a monopoly." The policy of the
department, Tnllnrd d'ctnred, was to
prevent monopolies rather than to
crente them.
Smith denied that Mr. Pinchot'a
statement w;i$ true, so did hta
colleague, Knhn, Knowland, Nood
