WASHINGTON. July 27. President Taft sent a special message to the Senate yesterday shouldering full re sponsibility for opening for settlement and development 12,800 acres ot the Chugach National Forest Reserve In Alaska an Incident which has 'be come to be known' as the "Controller Bay Affalr," In concluding he brands the now famous "Dick to Dick" post script as a "wicked fabrication" and says that Charles P. Taft whose name appeared In the alleged post script "has no Interest In Alaska, nev er had, and knows nobbing ot the circumstances connected ' with this transaction." Moreover, the Prosldeut adds, his brother does not even reracra. ber that he ever met Richard B. Ryan, representing the Controller Railway ft Navigation Company. As tor eliminating the land in ques tion from the reserve, the President says that there Is no danger ot the Controller Railway & ''Navigation Com pany or any otlier Interests monopo lising the field, and nothing to show that this company la In any way con nected with the Morgan-Guggenheim Interests. Hence, he believes that tn eliminating the land he has acted tor the best interests ot the nation, 1 "I wish to Ibe as specific as possi ble upon this point," says the Presi dent In .his message, "and to say that I alone am responsible for the en largement of the proposed elimination from 320 acres to 12,800 acres, and that I proposed the change and stated my reasons therefor. Tho thing which Ltbe Territory of Alaska needs Is de velopment, and where Hunts and Iran chlses can be properly granted to en courage investment and construct a railroad without conferring exclusive privileges, I believe it to be In accord ance with good policy to grant wiem. Accompanying the President s mes sage ate documents, reports and maps Hearing on the case, as requested from lm by a Senate resolution of June 27th last. "I deem It wise," says the message, "to accompany the sub mission or tnese documents witn a statement In narrative form of the ac tion of the administration with the reasons therefor." Here follows a de scription of Controller Bay and envir ons and a map showing the effect of withdrawing the much mooted 12.HOO acres from tbe reserve. The President then takes up the thread ot his narra tive as concerns the events that pre cipitated the controversy, To the Officers and iMotnbeis ot the Farmers' Union: A week or so ago I emphasised that th next great sphere of development within the Farmers' Union would be In the direction ot strengthening en terprisea, and ot persuading the aver age farmer to use business methods, and to co-operate In distributing and buying, as well as producing and loll ing agencies. ,c ?'',.,.
