Wyoming Governor’s letter on forest reserves draws Interior response
Secretary Hitchcock dismisses Governor Chatterton’s protest as political theater. Interior officials say land drawn from entry may be restored rather than enlarged forest reserves. Superintendent Anderson remains a trusted ally of Roosevelt and Pinehart, with no imminent removal. The department reiterates careful, nonpanicked review of land withdrawals and forest reserve proposals.
