13 THE OREGON SUNDAY JOURNAL, PORTLAND, SUNDAY MORNING,. NOVEMBER 28, 1920. BACK RIDING E BEST SPORT. SAYS CALIFORNIA RIDER San Luis Obispo Sportsman Would Make It National Recreation; .Youth, Aged Urged to Saddle. WANT A HORSE IN EVERY HOME scou "Horseback, riding should be made the national sport and there should be ft eaddle horse for every home," declares Hamilton "Horse" Bassett from San Luis Obispo, Cal., an of ficer -of the Horse Association of America, and one of the most en thusiastic horsemen in the country. Kaasett attended the Pacific Interna tional Livestock show in Portland. "A child with a pony for a compan ion,", he added, "la early taught self control and poise. No one can govern an animal until he can first govern him-Hf-lf and the child soon , learns that loss of "temper and an " ugly disposition are quickly, reflected by the animal. "If there was a pony in every home there would be fewer erotic children, Iphs work for the druggists and fewer " physical rejects. Organize riding clubs for the youngsters instead of letting them ride around to undesirable places . with - undesirable companions, burning up the 'old man's' gas. SO STICKS TVEEUKD . "Put s i'cm on a horse,1 he declared, "and there will be' no need of lip stieks to smear paint over the lips, no heed of rotigo .pots to plaster up the cheeks. They wilt learn that a plucked eyebrow is. a poor protection from the dust land that cigarettes and clean living do! not go hand in'.hnd, that satin slifipers with two-inch heels are all right for the ballroom, but poor things for street wear." ''.. Bassett not only talks riding, but be "himself rides, as does his family. He and Mrs. Bassett rode horseback from New York city to San Francisco to at tend the Panama-Pacific exposition,; and at their homo at San IjuIs Obispo, horse back riding is their principal form of recreation, f .1UKF.S LIFE, LIVABLE f '-'Horseback ridipg Is the finest exer cise, the greatest sport there is, never monotonous,; never sordid, but sending the red blood pounding through the ar teries, clearing the mind of its brain fag and making life worth living." , Basset spoke the -highest words of praise for the stock 'show and said he would urge California breeders to ship a greater number of representative ani mals to Portland next year. Rock Released by Explosion Changes Course of Stream ' . Walla Walla. Wash., Nov. 27. Sev eral hundred tons of volcanic rock, tumbled into the Umatilla river by a blast of T. N. T. during road building work on the Wenaha National forest, has changed the course of that stream i ' SO. ........ 3 Mr. and Mrs. Hamilton Bassett of San Luis Obispo, Cal., who have been attending the Pacific Northwest Livestock show, indulging in their favorlte sport on their California ranch. The Bassetts are among the most enthusiastic equestrians in the "country. at a point on the road from Pendleton to Bingham Springs, according to Su pervisor John C. Kuhns. The blast con tained SJ00 pounds of T. N. T., and a rancher living half a mile away reported that it jarred the putty loose from the window panes in his dwelling. The road being built by, the forest service is along the Umatilla river from Bingham - Springs, and considerable blasting has been necessary. The two worst bluffs along the proposed route ar8 eliminated and Supervisor Kuhns states that if the weather remains good between 200 and 306 yards of it will be completed this fall. Congressional Aid In Carrying Wheat Farmers Is Sought Moscow, Idaho,, Nov.- 27. Burton L. French, congressman for the First Idaho district, is en route with Mrs, (French and Miss Jackson, his secretary, for Washington to attend.; the short session of congress. - He said he expects congress to remain in session until Marchr4, when the ad ministration changes, and anticipates a special session will be called soon after Harding1 becomes president. Upon his arrival in Washington, French expects to take up, as early as possible, the proposal to get federal reserve bank assistance to carry wheat and permit re newal of Wheat notes at the federal bank for a longer period than 90 days. Dis cussing tfSe problems confronting the farmer, he said : "Some method must be devised of changing Conditions, so that speculators cannot control the price of farm prod ucts. Unless this is done, there will be a serious shrinkage in production. The plan suggested would mean $15,000,000 to $20,000,000 to the three Northwestern statesIdaho, Oregon and Washington alone, in a single season. The matter is of such vital importance that it should and probably will receive prompt attention by congress and some rem edy discovered and applied." 8 BUTTE SUGAR MEN ARE INDICTED FOR PROFITEERING Government Charges Utah-Idaho Sugar Company Made Exces- sive Profits on Its Sales. T IVEH T POWER FOR PEACE, ASSERTS KNAPP Boys Are Brothers in Work, Says British Captain Who Is Here Studying Logging Methods. "In the Boy Scout movement we have the most wonderful opportu nity, if we will but take It, to pro mote the peace of the world. The fourth Scout law says a Scout is a brother to every other Scout and a true interpretation of this law will help foster, the spirit of the League of . Nations," said Captain G. E. C. Knapp of Swindon, England, who with 15 other representatives of the Indian office of the British govern ment, is in this country to study Jogging methods, and who spent part ofNlast 'week In Portland. Captain l6iapp has been in the Scout movement ever since he was 14 years old and he is a most ardent advocate of its program as a big factor in the development of a high type of citizen ship. Knapp was in an engineering school, "jwhen England entered the war, and in September, 1918. he was de tailed fr the ' North Russian expedi tion. He was detained in Archangel on ac count of illness, and on getting out of the hospital, as he walked up the street of the city one day, he encoun tered three little Russian scouts wear ing the scout badges. He gave them the scout sign, and when they spied his button they grabbed him by the arm and literally carried him off to their headquarters. . "It was a tiny hovel in a back alley. There was : almost no furniture, the boys had only parts of uniforms and they were in rags, but on the wall was a picture ' of,- Baden-Powell, the founder of the Scout movement," said Captain Knapp. . "The scouts had ljjst meir scoutmaster ana Dom ot ms as sistants in the war, and for more "than a year they had been trying to 'carry on' as best they could. I could speak no Russian, and they could, speak no English, but we finally found someone who spoke French, so we got along very well. "On one of my ' visits to the bead quarters. I was met by half a dozen' girls who declared that they 'wanted to be Boy Scouts. I sought out one of the American' women working in the Y. M. C. A. and she organized them into a group of .Girl Scouts."
