EIGHT MEDFORD MSTTJ TRIBUNE, MEDFORD. OREGON, TUESDAY, SEPTEMBER 20, 1932. E Vets Organization Taken to Task for Asking Bonus Payment Swayed by Militarists, Is Allegation PORTLAND. Ore., Sept. 20 (AP) In hU cannon, "I ttat Legion a. Menace?" delivered at the Lincoln Methodist church here. Rev. Rosa W. Anderson, pastor, declared that the "Legion may be a menace to the re public because of Ita great political power, took the organization to task for voting for Immediate payment of the bonus, and charged It with being "pretty largely und-r the away of the military temper ox mind." Touching on the last point, he aid: Peace plans Ignored "As one man put It, 'the conven tion either opposed or ignored every great constructive proposal for peace which la before the world today It la with deep regret that I am forced to admit the truth of the statement, "This la important because it la Indicative of the type of mind In control of the Legion, the military mind: the mind which believes that the path to peace Ilea by the way of great armament. "Xt la natural that the Legion men should fall a prey to those who tell Us that wars must come, and that the best prepared nation suffers lease. They men saw the world rely on force once. They want peace, but they rely on armaments to give them that peace. Consider Source "I ask them to consider from whence toe loudest voices are raised In favor of a big array and navy. Those voices come from two sources: From the regular army and navy of ficers and from the manufacturers of warships and war supplies. In other words, those who cry loudest for military preparedness are those who have an economic Interest in doing so. do not question the patrtotslsm of the Legion members nor of regular service officers. I do question the patriotism of the professional patri ots and flag-wavers; and I question the Legion's wisdom In heeding their loud cries."

And, he promises anyone In search of a thrill, rugged and untamed, that hell find It by viewing from the air a southeastern Oregon skyline, brushed with the manes and tails of fleeing horses. Horses which know not lasso, halter or bridle, and which plunge Into a density of mountain sagebrush In mad defiance of ac quaintance with any one of the three, when an airplane motor roars over head. Mr, Hahn arrived In Medford yes terday from Lake view, the eastern Oregon town which neighbors the mountain range, ruled by 30.000 wild steeds, which each year entice from adjoining ranges numerous horses which have grown weary of saddle and plow. To force them from their native or adopted mountain haunts, Mr. Hahn files high above their wind tossed manes and with the roar of airplane motor frightens them Into dlsbandment, domesticity and death, which comes with capture. "They are smarter than coyotes. More fleet of foot than deer or ante lope, and might is right among them, as young stallion replaces one old leader of the band," Mr. Hahn explained. They travel In bands of from five to 35, always with a stallion and leader and an older horse, acting as rear guard, to prevent division of the group. The bands will not mix unlns the leader Is killed or cap tured, then the horses Join another group. They are afraid of the mo tor's roar and start In organized flight over their old trails, until forced to separate, then grow fran-! tlo and scatter to be driven down the mountain, where capture is pos sible. On his last campaign, Mr. Hahn brought In ISO horses from the mountain several thousand feet above the plateau In the Thousand Creek country, lis miles from Lakevlew. The horses, formerly tame, are much harder to capture t&an the natives of the range, Mr. Hahn said yesterday. They have learned the ways of man and the restrictions of farm life. The wild ones, once cap tured, are -easily tamed. Like domes tic horses, their coats are varied In color, but often more vivid and ir regular In markings. A white horse with a black head was once' found In a band and a black one with white mane and tall. All the horses are fat, a little smaller, but tougher than the tamed animals. They are believed to be descendants of the horses left In the southwestern coun try during the early Spanish settle ment, the territory they inhabit run ning well Into Nevada. The valleys and ranges In the vi cinity of their domain are large, so large that only the water holes are fenced, and the horses, sometimes traveling In herds as great as 6000 In number, progress from mountain to mountain, unhampered. The farm work horses turned out on the range at the close of the summer season Join their ranks and when spring comes again refuse to return to toll. For this reason the farmers are anxious to rid the country of the wild horses, which also eat off an Important portion of the range which otherwise would support the domesti cated animals. Most of the wild horses taken from the mountains are shipped to Sen eas ier Bros., Portland, where they are butchered and packed for European shipment, the people of the old countries having a pronounced fond ness for horse meat. During former years they were driven from the mountains by cow boys who, in the process, raced their own horses beyond their endurance, any many times to their death. Adaption of the airplane Is therefore considered the more humane method of caring for the problem. Mr. Hahn, who has been operat ing a school of aviation at Lakevlew, plans to open .a school here next monto snd was In Medford yesterday making plans for the opening. He will make the local airport his head quarters and uses the well known Bird planes. F. W. Bartlett, Med ford 'a Taxider mist and Furrier, has opened shop, 43 So. Central St., Craterlan Bldg.
