EXPERT ARRAIGNS
FOREST SERVICE
Field Work Declared Mockery
in Hands of Inexperienced
Young Theorists.
REGULATIONS ARE BURDEN
Timber-Cutting Permits Cost Gov
ernment Several Times Amount
Received From Them In Sev
eral Cases Cited.
WASHINGTON. April 24. A scathing
indictment of the Dresent-day manage
ment of the Forest Service la contained
In a memorandum filed with the bec
retary of Agriculture by Daniel W.
Adams, who. after five years aa ex
pert lumberman In the forestry Bureau,
voluntarily rettres to engage In private
business. Impracticability, bad business
management. Improvidence and an ex
cess of bureaucratic methods are the
reneral charges he makes. Mr. Adams
gives names, cites Instances and refers
to records to substantiate his charges.
Though less sensational than the
charges oftn made by the late Senator
Heyburn. of Idaho, the charges of Mr.
Adams are convincing, because they
are made by a competent man who
spent five years in the service.
Stndrata IMnreaard Expert.
Dealing with the timber question, he
says that the head of the timber divi
sion Is one of the most experienced and
best-informed lumbermen in the coun
try, but his suggestions are largely
disregarded by studonts In the service
and acute disagreements ensue when
ever the Government undertakes to sell
its timber to private lumbermen. He
charges that the "personnel of the For
est Service is composed of so many
theorists and highly-trained young men
who have injected such senseless and
impossible regulations that the sawmill
men purchase timber only when their
privately owned timber Is exhausted."
As these young men conduct the field
work. Mr. Adams alleges. It often costs
the Forest Service three times as much
as the xtumpage is worth to designate
the trees which the-purchaser may cut.
In one instance the Forest Service got
II a thousand for a lot of timber, and
It cost the Government $7 a thousand
to mark the timber, prior to cutting.
There Is a provision of law under
which the Government gives away tim
ber for domestic use to persons living
near the National for!ts. In the Deer
Lodge forest In 1911 Mr. Adams shows
that it cost the Government $ a thou
sand feet to give away timber, because
of the impracticability of forest ranges.
Itrsulatloaa To Technical.
Taking up the question of mining,
as it relates to the Forest Service, the
memorandum says that the mining
regulations "are so technical and diffi
cult to comply with that they practi
cally preclude the possibility of a min
ing prospector's proving up on his
claim once a mineral deposit is located,
t-bould a claim be located within the
timbered area of a National forest,
there are so many restrictions as to the
use of mining timbers that the miner
frequently has to go a great distance
and secure timber that is privately
owned. What la more disastrous, the
Forest Service has the prospector's
mineral vein Inspected by a lot of tech
nically educated, but inexperienced stu
dents instead of practical miners, and
It seems their one ambition is to make
an adverse report under the fallacious
interpretation of conservation."
llr. Adams commends the grazing di
vision of the Forest Service as being
"mors nearly in accord with what it
should bo than any other branch of the
service." Here again, however, forest
rangers unfamiliar with western con
ditions misinterpret regulations, and
again the theoretical college youth
makes It difficult for a permit-bolder
to avail himself of the National forest
range- Ma tells of one instance where
a student ranger proposed to cancel a
crazing permit because the sheep of
the rermtttee's herd kicked stones onfo
the Forest Service trail. Mr. Adams
himself happened to be present, cleared
the trail with the toe of his boot and
saved what promised to be a big row
with a sheepman In Arizona.
Speaking of water power In the for
est reserves. Mr. Adams says:
"The present development of this re
source is handicapped by regulations
which by their nature forbid Its utili
sation. For Instance, while It Is un
doubtedly of the utmost importance
that the tltlo to the riparian rights re
main forever in the Government, yet
to expert capital to undertake Its de
velopment under reaeew which involves
a revocable permit without reciting
therein the contributory causes which
may warrant such revocation, is abso
lutely preposterous. A company which
may undertake financing auch a proj
ect could not have Its bonds underwritten.-
FEDERAL EXAMPLE CITED
CVntlntsd From First Fme-
while we are merely debating laws
similar to thosa now In effect, there
are trained upon us not only the ver
bal batteries of Japan but those of our
own country. The position that we
occupy at this moment is not pleasant
to contemplate. '
"Calmly and dispassionately we are
discussing a law admittedly within our
province to enact. Objection la made
by Japan and forthwith it is demanded
that we cease even discussion and upon
us, if we don't cease calm and dispas
sionate consideration of that which is
desired by a great portion of our people
and which we have the legal and moral
right to do. Is placed the odium of
bringing possible Unsocial disaster and
rv.n worse upon our Nation. What a
situation for a great state and a great
people!"
Democrat trees Cantioa.
Senator Campbell. Democrat, said to
day: "It Is high time some one sounded a
word of caution and sober sense in this
matter. We should approach the sub
ject of antl-allen land ownership with
rvpen minds. We should be fair. Just
and careful, but first of all we should
be above any display of petty politics.
It is a time for statesmanship, and not
a lot of loose talk for mere personal or
party advantage.
"I am not going to criticise the Gov
ernor's statement. In this situation we
should be above criticising the attitude
and opinion of every man.
"One might think from what has been
said that California Is not a part of
the t'nlted States, and that we Callfor
plans are in a state of hostility toward
our Governument at Washington."
Cieiaot Conference Suggested.
The Democrats In both houses have
conceived the idea of calling a confer
ence of the Governors of the States of
Orejon, Washington, Nevada and Ari
zona to meet wlio Secretary Bryan, and
Governor Johnson next week, with a
view of bringing about concerted action
on the alien land question, and reso
lutions will be introduced in both
houses tomorrow directing that invita
tions be telegraphed to the executives
of these states.
There Is little sympathy for this plan
among the majority, who. having as
serted the right of a state to act. now
declure that such a conference would
only serve to cloud the issue. They ex
pect to kill the resolutions when they
come to a vote.
Chinese Protest Received.
Copies of the resolutions passed to
day by the board of directors of the
Panama Pacific Exposition were re
ceived by Governor Johnson and the
presiding officers of both Houses of the
Legislature tonight. Governor John

the resolutions.

BRYAN' IS GOIXG nOPEFTTXY
Wilson Sajs Japanese Attitude Is
Proper anil Friendly.
WASniNGTON. April 24. William
Jennings Bryan. Secretary of State,
left Washington at 6:4S o'clock to
night over the Pennsylvania Railroad
for Sacramento, where on Monday he
will begin consultations with Governor
Johnson and members of the Califor
nia Legislature, In an effort to frame
antt-alien land laws that will not be
In conlllct with treaty obligations of
the Vnited States with Japan.
"I go hopefully, yet with a realiza
tion of the responsibility involved."
said the Secretary as he left the White
House after a final conference with
President Wilson.
The President had explained earlier
in tuc day. in his conference with the
newspaper men. that the purpose of
Me. Bryan's visit was to take counsel
with tho California authorities as to
the bst way to avoid international dif
ficulty. The President let It be known that
he cunslderKi the attitude of the Jap
anese government in arguing its case
proper and friendly and that there had
be n no note of antagonism, despite re
ports t- the contrary, the position of
the Toklo government having been one
of respectful urgency that no discrim
ination be made against their peoples.
Inquiries as to Just what Japan
would consider a discrimination
brought forth the intimation from the
President that with the eligibility of
the Japanese to citizenship still a de
bataMe tiuestion, it would be difficult
to define Just what would be construed
as a discrimination. Mr. Bryan him
self declared later that he went with
no spaciac Instructions, but simply with
the general idea that discrimination
aimed directly at the Japanese should
be avoided if possible.
IDAHO ALIEN LAW REPEATED
Way Open After May 1 to Ownership
of Land by 3Iongollans.
BOISE. Idaho, April 24. All laws pro
hibiting the ownership by aliens of
lands in Idaho were repealed at the re
cent session of the Legislature, so Chi
nese and Japanese now can own and
hold ail the land they can purchase in
the atate.
On recommendation of the Governor
all anti-alien legislation was wiped out
because of Its effect in deterring Euro,

SUBMARINE OF NEW TYPE
Details of Latest German Sea War
rior Made Known.
BERLIN. April 2. (Special.) Some
details are now forthcoming of the
newest type of German submarine. It
Is to be a boat of 800 tons, and the chief
characteristic of Its armament Is a. 7.6
centimeter quick-firing gun. which Is
fitted to rise and sink on much the same
principles as the standard type of coast
battery gun. In these two particulars,
size and qulck-tirlng gun armament, it
Is admitted that the designers have
followed the latest development of sub
marine design in the British fleet.
The German boat carries two of these
guns, one fore, the other aft, and the
total weight of each gun Is given as
680 kilograms or. roughly, two-thirds
of a ton. It can be brought up from
the hull of the vessel, and the flrst'shot
can be fired within 20 seconds. Each
gun requires three men to work it. As
for defense against airships and aero
planes, the angle through which the
gun may be turned a full right angle
allows it to be brought into play di
rectly overhead almost as easily as
against sea craft on the sea level.
Other features of the new boat are
Its armor, and its 900-horsepower Die
sel motor. As usual with Krupp ar
mor, no thickness is specified. It is
known only that the deck, the conning
tower, and all the hull that is visible
during oversea cruising are to be
strongly protected. The Diesel motor Is
capable of giving the vessel a speed of
12 and 17 knots, respectively, for sub
marine and sea-level cruising.
The first vessel of this type Is TJ51.
which has been turned out by the Im
perial yards at Danzig. Five ships of
similar design, but of considerably
lighter tonnage (10 tons instead of 800
tons), are being built by the Krupp
Germanla works at Kiel for the Aus
trian government.

Progressive Leader Declares) Need of
Tariff Commission Is Demon
strated ly Methods Used
With Pending Measnre.
WASHINGTON, April 24. Republi
canism was described as "dead, damned
and lost forever"; Democracy was ac
riiiMl of rushing to "clean its feet on
the Progressive party." and the Pro
gressive party was characterizes as a
'k.. nr. shAAt ffnm the dead Republi
can trunk" in the three-corner tariff
debate In the House today.
Mr. Fordney, of Michigan, Ditteriy as
sailed the sugar schedule and the free
nf liimhAf. inH wool as ruinous
to American industry. Mr. Hlnebaugh
charged that the pending bill was a
"compromise between the power of spe
cial privilege and the power of poli
tical patronage," and he accused tho
Democrats and Republicans of falling
over themselves in an attempt to clean
"their feet on the Progressive party
door mat."
Member Assails Progressives.
Mr Aaweii declared that the Pro
gressives wero only "1 per cent Bull
Moose and tne otner per ceui incm
ly were trying to disrupt the Demo
cratic party by sowing discord among
the new members In the House. Rep
resentative Barkley assailed the tariff
committee proposal of the Progres
sives. He reminded the Republicans
that it was too late for them now to
mourn and declared that their pay
had been "damned and lost forever."
Victor Murdock, of Kansas, Progres
sive floor leader, presented a minority
report on the. tariff bill. He asserted that
If there had been wanting proof of the
necessity of a tariff commission, the
pending Democratic tariff bill alone
would supply it. He charged that as
a result of the methods used in its
preparation, the few men who drafted
It "are not warranted in feeling cer
tainty as to its" effects and most of
those who have Indorsed it In cau
cuses as a party measure cannot have
other than a superficial knowledge of
its provisions."
Basis of Prosperity Imperiled.
Murdock declared the Democratic
party has proposed a tariff which will
be Injurious to many industries and
may be destructive to some.
"Under the guise of reducing the cost
of living," he said, "it may destroy the
very basis of our industrial prosperity.
Proposing and promising to cheapen
the food and clothing of the working
man, it may take from him the very
means by which he may earn his live
lihood. Proclaiming in one statement
that it Is cheapening the articles used
by the farmer. In tho next statement it
opens the American market to foreign
agricultural and dairy products.
"The Progressive party's position on
the tariff is distinct. It does not be
lieve In the Democratic position which
proposes to remove all protection ex
cept that incidental to revenue. It
does not believe in the Republican
proposition which proposes to keep the
duties prohibitive. It believes in a
protective tariff which shall equallre
the conditions of competition between
the United States and foreign countries,
both for the farmer and manufacturer
and which shall maintain for labor an
adequate standard of living."
PANIER ESTATE PROBED
SOLK 1 tKIK. WOULD KN'OW WHY
SHE RECEIVED OXIY $1600.
Probate Judge Cleeton Launches In
vestigation to Learn Causes for
Apparent Discrepancies.
Following receipt of a letter yester
day from Anna H. Stockman, of 58
Brokdale avenue, Newark, N. J., de
manding to know why she, the sole
heir of the estate of her brother. Otto
Panler, received only 81600 when Judg
ment in favor of his estate for more
than $4300 was recovered. Probate
Judge Cleeton has launched an investi
gation. He has Issued citations for B.
D. Btrauhl, administrator of the estate;
H. H. Rlddell, attorney for the admin
istrator, and W. C. Benbow, who re
ceived a power of attorney from Mrs.
Stockman to act in her stead in this
city.
The facts as disclosed by the pro
bate records at the Courthouse are
that Panler was drowned by the over
turning of the barge Monarch, Decem
ber 28, 1904. With the exception of
personal property of the value of 8100
or so his estate consisted entirely of a
claim for damages against the O. R. &
N. Company and the Oregon Round
Lumber Company. The administrator
entered into a contract with Attorney
Rlddell authorizing him to bring suit,
the attorney to receive 50 per cent ol
what he recovered, and the contract
was approved by L. R. Webster, then
Probate Judge. November 30, 1908, a
judgment of $4538.40 was paid the ad
ministrator. Almost two years later, December 15,
1910, Mr. Benbow was appointed at tor
new in fact for the sister, she not hav
ing received- any of the money. He
petitioned Judge Cleeton and a citation
was Issued, ordering the administrator
to pay Into court half the judgment.
Instead of this being done, Mr. Ben
bow filed some time late:- a 'receipt
from Mrs. Stockman in which she ack
nowledged receipt of $1693.70 from W.
C. Benbow as payment In full.
Judge Cleeton wants to know why
his order to turn the money into court
was not obeyed and what became of
the difference between $1693.70 and
half of the Judgment, & difference of
nearly $600.

PilURDER PLOT BARED
Bunco Steerers Say Detective
Hired Assassins.
CONFIRMATION IS FOUND
Prisoner - at San Quentin Makes
Charges at Same Time Second
Prisoner In Connty Jail Is
Tolling Same Story.
SAN FRANCISCO. April 4Investi
trators conducting: the Inquiry based
upon charges made by members of a
gang of bunco steerers now under ar
rest, that eight members of the San
Francisco Police Department, suspend
ed today by Chief of Police White,
were In collusion with them in their
operations, are directing their atten
tion chiefly to the sensational state
ment made by one of the convicted
men that an accused detective had
hired four assassins to murder blm.
The charge was made by Michael
Gallo, now serving a terra In San
Quentln penitentiary for larceny. He
made detailed reference to the- Inci
dent, saying that the officer had or
dered him killed when he declined to
increase the detectives' amount in the
division of the profits from a bunco
deal.
At about the time that Gallo was
telling this story, confirmation of It
was being received in a voluntary
statement made by Maurice DeMartlnl,
another member of the gang In the
County Jail, now awaiting sentence.
Both men say that after Mrs. Rosa
Pelllnl was fleeced out of $5060 by
Gallo. a division of the money was
made with the officer. Subsequently
the detective demanded more money
and when it was not forthcoming he
placed four men with knives In a dark
alley to kill Gallo.
The statement has been made by
DeMartlnl that two bunco men were
responsible for the death of Bert
Blanchard. a deputy game warden, who
was killed In the meadow near Rich
mond. Contra Costa County, seven
months ago. The two men were out
hunting and were met by Blanchard,
who charged thme with violating the
game laws and placed them under ar
rest. Believing that this was a ruse
and that Blanchard was arresting them
for larceny committed In San Francisco
DeMartlnl says, they shot him to death.
The police are Investigating the story.
BEST HELP IN ENGLAND
London Field Suggests Scotland Also
to American Investigators.
LONDON. April 26. (Special.) In
connection with the visit of the United
States Agricultural Commission to Eu
rope, the Field discusses the question
aa to the oountries in which the Ameri
can Investigators are likely to get most
asslstanco towards the solution of the
problems they are attacking. It has
been suggested that the best Ideas
would be found In Ireland. Denmark,
Holland and Belgium.
It Is well worth notice that. In the
opinion of this high agricultural au
thority, the most valuable help is like
ly to be obtained, "not In Ireland or on
the Continent, but In Norfolk, Lincoln
shire, the Lothians and on the shores of
the Moray Firth and other districts
south and north of the Tweed, where
the mixed husbandry that extracts
from the land a big return without Im
pairing Its fertility Is practiced with
unequaled Intelligence and success."
This only confirms the conclusions
come to by the author of that exhaus
tive series of articles In The Times en
titled "A Pilgrimage of British Farm
ing." After closely examining the work
of British agriculturists In England
and Scotland. In the course of protract
ed motor tours, this careful investi
gator, who is known to have been A. D.
Hall, late Director of Rothamated. and
now a Development Commissioner,
wrote that "the greater part of the
land of the. country is held by men oc
cupying single farms of from 150 to 300
acres," and that "if we examine the
methods of a good example of this class,
engaged in growing corn, raising stock
or milk. It would be very hard for the
most enlightened and sclentinc expert
to show him how to Improve his busi
ness." The effect of any possible im
provements that might be suggested,
the writer goes on to say", would be
"something in the order of 5 or 10 per
cent, and the whole of them would not
alter the character of the Industry."
America and the colonies have "noth
ing to teach us," and as for Holland,
Belgium and Denmark, their lesson is
"not the transplantation of this or that
industry, but that intelligence will find
openings for profit In various direc
tions." When all the possibilities in
these "various directions" are consid
ered, however, "they are and must re
main, the fringes of the great industry,
?hlcb fundamentally is concerned with
corn and meat."
And it will not be forgotten that the
president of the Surveyors' Institution,
Kdward Strutt, one of the largest farm
ers, and land agents in the country,
lately admitted in his presidential ad
dress that "the time has now arrived
when those interested In agriculture
should cease, saying that It Is an in
dustry In which success Is almost Im
possible without the greatest parsi
mony In all expenditure, for happily
there is little doubt that during the last
five or six years those who have used
skill and energy in the management of
their farms, tilling their land with
judgment, and taking advantage of the
latest scientific knowledge, have reaped
a reward for their Industry." And he
went on to show, by the citation of fig
ures, how profitable grain growing had
been with him. more profitable than
stock or anything else.
Since he spoke, the Duke of Marl
borough has announced his intention
of breaking up Blenheim Park to
tillage.
CAPITAL LEAVING GERMANY
Continuous Diplomatic Uneasiness
Cause, Says Kelchsbank.
BERLIN. April 26. (Special.) The
six months of continuous diplomatic
uneasiness, according to the Relchsbank
report, have resulted In the withdrawal
of $100,000,000. which either has been
Invested abroad or replaced in the
"woolen stocking." Since it Is feared
that the promised tax on property will
tend In some degree In the same di
rection, many believe it to be wise to
provide the most convincing possible
guarantee that Germany shall be safe
both from the economical and military
points of view.
Generally speaking, beyond the So
cialists, any serious opposition to the
increase of forces is nonexistent. The
Socialists are organizing vast demon

Generally speaking, however, the

their passage through the Reichstag
The Conservatives and the Roman

of delegating to each state the collec

condition that It is paid up at the rate
of 30 cents an Inhabitant, at first
thought to be a clever move, is now
discovered to have failed In its imme
diate object of disarming critics, while,
on the other hand, it Is considered a
highly dangerous policy for the con
stitution, since the position of the em
pire in regard to the individual states
would be gravely modified.
