Taft fights Controller Bay order over Alaska harbor plan
President Taft issues a message to Congress detailing the Alaska Controller Bay dispute. He explains the order to shrink the Chugach National Forest by 12 800 acres to allow land for a proposed Controller Bay railway terminal, and he defends this against claims of a monopoly while denying any link to a Dick to Dick letter involving Charles Taft. He cites naval and forestry reviews and notes that the harbor area remains under congressional control with safeguards against private monopolies.
