Observations From
Washington
Treat All Alike
BY Congressman Harold Knutson

Treat All Alike
I note from the papers from
back home that Senator Ruotsin-
ola, of Meeker County, has intro
duced bill in the state legislature
to give the farmer cost of produc-
ton and there will doubtless be
those who will say it can't be
done. Well, the National House Of
Congress last week passed the So
called Vinson-Guffey Coal bill,
which will give the coal industry
cost of production. Under it's terms
the operators and the miners,
jointly, will virtually fix the price
of coal. I dare say that there is
just as much difference in produc-
ton costs between the various bit
luminous coal mines as there is diff
ference in production cost of agri-
cultural products in various parts
of the country. It seems that we
are entering upon an era of price
| fixing and if such be the case ag-
riculture must not be overlooked.
One-Sided Neutrality
The other day received a COM

! idents Of Aitkin County taking me
to task because I voted for the
temporary neutrality legislation
which was passed with view to
shutting off all supplies to the
warning factions in Spain. The
communication frankly stated that
the operation of such neutrality
would be disadvantageous to the
Loyalist group. In other words, my
correspondents would take sides
which is in violation of every prin-
cipal of neutrality. They must I'M
J derstand that we cannot remain
neutral and yet aid belligerents. 1t
will be recalled that during the
Civil war our government lodged
! vigorous protests with the govern
ments of Great Britain and France
for giving open and active aid to
the Confederacy. Indeed, our last
note to England virtually served
notice that if the practice were
not discontinued this country was
prepared to adopt extreme meas
ures-in other words, to resort to
arms. My Aitkin correspondents

with the Land Bank division of

vigorously fought by members
from non-irrigation states who
took the position that 1t was con-
trary to the policy of controlled
production, which has been Secre-
tary Wallace's pet hobby since he
became Secretary Of Agriculture
It looks to me like sheer insanity
to pay the American farmer over
one thousand million dollars for
curtailing production and at the
same time spend hundreds of mil
lions of dollars to bring new irri-
gated lands into production. The
two together just simply do not
make sense.

with four victories in five tournament
starts. Two of them, Ralph Green
leaf, former champion, who previously
played out Of Chicago, and Jimmy

third, Onofrio Lauri, Brooklyn veteran,

racing is largely game for those who
make business Of it, for riders who
do nothing but train and ride jumpers,
and about the only fields left open to

own horses in competition that really
means something in relation to the

where fair outside courses are used;

or these, the latter are un-
questionably the most trying
tests Of horseflesh imaginable,

tainiy superb sport.
The most impressive thing about
the entire scene, as 1 saw it this year,
was the unfailing sportsmanship evi-
dent among SO per cent of the owners,
riders, winners and losers. I refer to
such incidents as the philosophic
calm with which George Walker ac-
cepted the death of his valuable Irish
hunter. Duboyne. in the Redland
heavyweight race; the uncomplaining
stoicism OF Crompton Smith after
that superb mare, Mary Barry (on
which he had won two tough races in
fortnighD, was badly cut at the last
fence in the Orange County individual
race, the genial frankness with which
Horace Mof1ett admitted making q
mistake and cutting the course in the
team race he won at Orange, his ad-
mission disqualifying him from scor-
ing double that day.
So many agreeable winners are poor
losers in other branches of equestrian
sport that it was balm to an embit-
tered spirit to see contests in which
the brilliant victors also were graceful
in defeat-and while much of this,
naturally is attributable to the char
acter of the persons involved, I believe
the nature of the sport itself has a
bearing on it. In so far, at least, as
it attracts that sort to its ranks.
BECAUSE the addition of a test for
junior riders under II years has
swelled its program to six events, the
Riding and Hunt Club has set II 80
Saturday afternoon as the starting
hour for the hunter trials. Incl
dentauy, the course at Bradley Farms
has been completed and opened for
schooling, the fences being substan-
TALLY the same as those in the 1886
route
The junior riders will 30 over
almost the same barriers as
their elders, except that they
will not be required to jump the
two largest fences in the adult
course.
Just before the finish Of the course
this year the riders will have to pull
up in sort of chute and pop the
last fence, giving the judges an op-
portunity to observe horses handi-
ness, as well as its ability to gallop
on across country and jump fences
at hunting pace.
