S.F. Sundav Examiners Chronicle May 3, 1981 sKrfrtr Section A Page 17 Watt assailed by former boss as behind the times Garasra By Russ Cone Examiner Staff Writer Secretary of Interior James Watt was denounced by his former tjoss yesterday as a traitor to Republican Party a1 disaster to President Reagan's administration and a person "caring more about jelly beans and money" than the nation's natural resources. The stinging, detailed rebuke of Watt came from Nathaniel Pryor Reed, an assistant secretary of Interior under Presidents Nixon and Ford and a staunch Reagan supporter who said he once held high hopes for Watt, who had served iunder him as head of Interior's Bureau 61 Outdoor Recfeation. But after witnessing the first three months of Watt's activity, Reed declared things "are wildly out of sync. "They are attempting to turn the cloc back to the pre-iTeddyl Roosevelt era, when everyone supposed natural Canon Btiiirolia i ur.uir kMriMHSM.

"1 cannot sit idly by and watch this lame-brained, Outmoded philosophy take hold and stain my party's image," Reed said. Reed, a director of Nature Conservancy and the Florida Audubon Society and an environmental adviser to Florida's governor, unloaded his despair on a sympathetic throng of 500 Sierra Club members at an annual dinner meeting at the Empress of China.

"It causes me great pain to criticize the administration as I am about to do," Reed said. "But my quarrel is not with Ronald Reagan. I think he will be a good president and a notable environmentalist. "The problem as I see it is that some of his appointees and particularly James Watt have broken faith with the Republican Party and betrayed their president." Reed said two of Watt's ac tions "have convinced me that he is already a disaster as secretary." One of these, Reed said, uas Watt's speech to the Conference of National Park Conc essionaires March 9 in which Watt described how bored he became during a Colorado River run through the Grand Canyon and promised concessionaires a greater voice in running national parks. Lamented Reed.

Watt's "insensitivjty to the beauty and adventure of the West is appalling. But these are only incidentals" compared with Watt's invitation to concessionaires "to play a tremendously important role" in administration of national parks. Most concessionaires are all right. Reed noted, but "they have no business whatever involving themselves in park administration He cannot legally delegate any part of managuig the national parks to concessionaires." He quipped: "It's as though Secretary Watt can't tell the difference between national parks and industrial parks." Reed cited a Time Magazine quotation from Watt that "my responsibility is to follow the scripture, which calls upon us to occupy the land until Jesus returns." Reed then cited the scriptures of his choice: 'Woe to the ones joining house to house, and those who annex field to field until there is no more room' The sad truth is that the secretary and his developer friends are worshipping a false god." Reed reserved his greatest fury, however, for what he termed Watt's "attempt to trash the Land and Water Conervation Fund." The fund derives from offshore oil and gas leases and contains about $1 billion. It is used to expand parks and national forests, to make matching grants to states and to provide habitats for endangered species.

The fund was scheduled to spend $217 million this year and $335 million next year for federal park land purchases. But Reed said Watt wants to trim $105 million from the W81 allotment and to reduce 1982 expenditures to $45 million and to extprmmate the state and local grants. "In one rash step," Reed said, "the secretary has proposed wiping out the most popular and effective federal revenue-sharing program in the country He said Watt slashed funds for endangered species 36 percent, adding, "For Watt to pose in front of a bald-eagle painting, as he did for Time Magazine, is the ultimate hypocrisy. "Butchering the fund, then, is a senseless act. Since open space is disappearing at a horrendous annual rate, many of the state and local park opportunities will be lost forever.

Since the price of land will surely escalate, no money is being saved. Since many endangered species must be rescued now or never, no time is being bought. Why does Watt support such a loony proposal?" He said Watt appears to lack either the guts or intelligence to stand up to Reagan budget cutters, or "the other possibility is even more alarming. One gets the impression that Watt's excessive zeal may stem from the desire to punish and insult conservationists and the Congress."
