WASHINGTON, D. C, May 3.--Tho
protests which havo boon received In
considerable number by tho U. S. De
partment of Agriculture against
, eliminating from tho nntlounl for
ests nou-tlmberod lands chiefly vnl
nble for grazing nro regarded by
Secretary Wlloon as Indicating that
ninny communities fall to realize the
limitations within which the depart
ment must net In carrying out faith
fully tho Intent of tho existing laws.
Most of tho protests set forth tho In
Jury which It Is feared may result
from unregulated grating on tho land
to bo eliminated. Since, howover,
the laud which It Is proposed to
eliminate nro neither forested now
nor regnrded as suitable for tho fu
ture growing of trees, tho government
hns no authority to hold them ns
parts of the Natlonnl Forests aftof
their actual charactor has boon de
termined. Tho policy to bo pursued with re
gard to such lands was rocontly
agreed upon by tho secretary of ag
riculture nnd the sccrotnry of tho in
terior Jointly nnd laid before the
president, who gave It his approval.
This policy Is not an innovation but
It Is tho samo policy which hns always
been nppllcd by tho forest sorvlco In
deckling whoro tho national forest
boundaries should bn drawn. The
reason why lands formerly included
in national forests aro now boing
eliminated is to bo found not In n
change of policy, but in tho fact that
tho actual conditions wore ascer
tained last year, for tho first time,
through careful boundary examina
tions. .
Tho evils feared by thoso who aro
now making protest against the ex
clusion of tho lands In question nro
usually of two kinds. In ninny
places residents find thomsolvcs
llkoly to suffer from an Invasion of
tho range of outsiders. If tho graz
ing Is uncontrolled, translont stock
may not only eat up tho forago but
also deploto tho range through ovor-
grazing, to tho loss and ovon to the
eventual ruin of tho locul stock
ownoi-H, Although Secretary Wilson
recognUoH thin to bo tho case, ho has
pointed out to UtoHo wlio mnlto this
argument that government control of,
lands valuable only for grazing was
not contemplated by tho Inws author
Izlng tho creation of national forests,
except "ha far us In necessary to nocuro
practical ndtnliilHtrnttvo houndarlos.
Another ground of protests ngalnnt
tho eliminations Is that administra
tion by tho department of agriculture
has already resulted In great Im
provement to tho water flow, or that
unregulated grazing will result In
polluted stromas or serious damage
to water sheds. In noma rases tho
tncrenso In water supply which has
followed tho national furest adminis
tration tit put ns high as 25 per cent.
To thoso who make this point Secre
tary Wilson Is replying that overy
effort has been made to tmfogtinrd
water supplies; that tho eliminations
proposed are only nlong bordoiB of
the forests, and tho protection of
water flow Is recognized bh a leg
itimate reason for retaining brush
laud even though It Is not likely ever
to grow timber of comorclal value.
It Is not dented that In come cases
tho elimination of puro grazing lands
tuny .possibly result In a certain
amount of stream pollution, but tho
department of agriculture holds It
lias no authority to try to prevent
this through national forest adminis
tration of such lauds. In main It Is
believed that tho Interests of water-.
users havo been well cared for In
making tho eliminations,
