president Sends Special Message
to Congress on- Subject. .
REFERS TO tfiOFFICE ROW
President Taft .Would Utile Bonds to
' Deepen Mississippi Valley "
Waterway. 4 '
Washington, D. C-President Taft
sent.to congress another special mes-
i-JSage, tnis time utftiimg wuu iue coa
servation of the nation's -resources.
He urges the continuation of tho
Uoosevelt policies,- and pays tribute
to bis. predecessor, for. his part; in
- starting the movement. I " " t , -
Basing his recommendations espe
cially on those contained in the re
port of Secretary of the, Interior Bai-
linger ana declaring tne present laws
inauequate, Mr. Taft aslts prompt
measures to save tne nation a re
sources. He recommends a bond is
sue of $30,000 OUO for the reclamation
of arid lands, the bonds to run 14
years or more and the proceeds to
be applied to the completion of th
1 projects already taken up and helr
extension. Rentals from water sites
, would, he believes, aid in clearing tho
-. ebt. - , .. . , . ...
To Safeguard s Water Powers. ,
Her-also urges a careful survey of
the river improvement work,- partic
ularly regarding the Mississippi, lu
the' hope that it may be pushed still
further eventually. The deepening ot
. the Obio and the Missouri, now under
way, should be pushed,' he holds.
The - message., also urges laws to
safeguard the nation's water power.
.. Although the message Is of especial
significance .ip regard to the long dis
pute between f .Clifford Pinchot, " late
chief forester, and Secretary Ballin
ger, the president mentions that con
troversy but briefly, declaring that
the results of the congressional In
quiry into 'the case are not needed
to determine the value-of the, new
legislation he urges. - i , ...- y
Improvement of the Mfssltatppl.
One of the , principal recommenda
tions of the message is the careful
consideration of the ' improvement oi
the Mississippi and .the pusnlng oi
the" work if it 13 found justitiable.
2 Referring to the present situation
of the public lands President ' Tati
makes this startling statement:. '
"The truth is that title to millions
of acres of public lands was traudu
lently obtained and that the right to
recover a"largerpart of sucn lands" for
the government long since ceased Ly
reason of statutes of limitations.
, . Later on, returning to tne illegal
holding ot land3 rightfully tne na
tion's . and referring specifically, a
tuough without mention of names, to
the lands Involved in . the Ballmr-
" Pinchot dispute the Cunningham
Alaska coal land -claims he. says :
. The Cunningham Coal Lands'.
""Tho investigations into violations
of the public land laws . and the
prosecution, as has been the with
-drawal of coal lands for classification
and valuation and the temporary
withholding, of power sites."
The present statutes, except those
that relate v to purely agricultural
lands" or those containing precious
metals, -are, says tne president, "not
adapted to carry out the. modern view
of the best disposition of public lands
to private r ownership.' S: "J:
Turning to the new laws he be
lieves necessary, he declares that it
- is the duty of congressi to validate,
the withdrawals which have been
made by the secretary of the interior
and the' president and to; authorize
the secretary - temporarily to witn
draw lands pending submission to
congress of recommendations as io
legislation to meet conditions or
emergencies '"as ,jthey arise. ,
Should Classify Lands.
"One of the most pressing needs oi
public land reiorm," he says, "is that
lands, should be classified according
; to their principal value or use."
'- It was on this point that the Bal
linger-Pinchot row hung, as the for
meiu jbhief forester ' maintained that
the government's conduct in the lit
.' igation over the Cunningham claims
was ;intendedL to thwart the 'United
States from securing the full value
of the : Alaskan coal claims, ' which the
' claimants wished to secure at a nom
; inal value not ' based on tneir coa
' value strictly, . ' v
The means for accomplishing this
end,; holds 4he president, jia,, throtign
the "interior- department'' - and 'its
branch, the geological 'survey.
"Much; of the confusion,, fraud and
contention wnicn nas : exasiea in in
past has arisen from lack cf an bffi
cial and determinative ciassin cation,
asserts the . message. , ;,": :

under . penalty of f orf ejture - u
The extent of the value of phos
phate is hardly realized," says the
message, declaring that this staple for
fertilizers will undoubtedly be sought 1
by monopolists. -This is of, timely tn-1
terest in,: connection with the protest
of the United States to Germany re
garding the ' tatter's proposed"-law reg-s
uiating the production of phosphates. '
, Balking Water Trust. -
The -prevention of a water trust is
possible, says the message, by set
ting the term' of control of T water
sites by private capital at ua 'years
and.e providing ini-the leases. by the
government against a 'monopoly. The
president j would have renewal privi
leges given, but' declares - that whila
the government retains control com
petition must be retained and prices
iiept reasonable. ; v
"The Importance of the mainte
nance of our forests cannot be exag
gerated,' Mr. Taft holds, pointing out
that the national reserves comprise
190,000,X)00 acres. . He urges scientific
care, to Increase the production ' of
lumber," .without reducing the supply
on the. ground. . r"
Bonds to deepen Ohio and Mississippi
The president recommends the con
tinuation of the Ohio river deepening,
which is expected to cost Jtf3,00u,
000. The president sUtes that the
work can be done in ten years, and
says; that If necessary he will later
recommend bonds' to carry on tne pro-
ect. He also . demands the continued
improvement of the Mississippi, from
SL Paul tq St Louis, a six foot depth,
and of the Missouri from Kansas City
to St.,. Louis to six feet, and . from
St. Louis to Cairo-to -eight feet.1
The depth, may be Increased if re
sults warrant it, he says. In the rivers

ommends provision for continuing, the
contracts for .improvements". '
