—Conservation — RIVER FORESTS COULD INCLUDE BRIDLE PATHS State Horseback Riders Now Hard Put for Recreation Space. BY WILLIAM F. COLLIN'S Times Special Writer I wonder if any of you have thought that conservation may answer some major problem you have in mind. There are more than 300,000 men and women in Indiana who spend money to enjoy hunting and fishing. There are thousands of others who do not have to buy a license to enjoy the outdoors. I have in mind the tennis player, the horseback rider, the golfers. The members of thp Audubon Society do not pay a fee to study birds; the hikers and the canoeists and the motorboat enthusiasts all enjoy their sport in the open without a thought as to the conservation department or its objectives. I want you to stop just-a moment and visualize for yourselves what could be accomplished in Indiana if aH, of the outdoors persons in this state banded together to put over their pet ideas relative to increasing their enjoyment and you can be just as selfish about it as you please. No matter how selfish the project is, somewhere in it there is a meridian line upon which you can stand with some other group and by working together accomplish your heart's desire. Ask Room for Riding As I write these words, I have in mind the fine group of men and women in this state who love the saddle horse. It was my privilege recently to be present at a meeting of the committee of the Indiana Saddle Horse Association. It had a problem and a big one. Yearly the demand for riding horses has increased in the United States until at this time there are more than a half million people who own and ride horses. Their problem. not only in Indiana, but in every other state is to find the ground over which to ride. With the advent of intensive agriculture, the open range of our ancestors has been fenced. It is no longer possible to ride cross country except in a very limited way. The territory for bridle paths is quite limited and growing more restricted each year. To keep the sport moving, anew outlet for activity is needed. Now. don't believe that the only persons who ride horseback belong in the higher financial brackets. Stenographers and clerks comprise about half of the horseback recreationists in this country. A c k at the Brown county state park stables who rents saddle horses there. Suggestion to Farmers And remember this, you farmers; there are only two ultimate consumers in the world, man and horse. Each eats the end product of the soil. Your cows, pigs, chickens at?d what not only make farm products more palatable, only man and horse eventually consume and pay you for consuming your products, so don't snoot a horseman. Well, the horsemen of Indiana have their problem. Where can we ride? We discussed the road sides. Dangerous! Yes to a high degree. Old inter urban rights of way? Good as far as they extend, but most of them have reverted to the titleholder of the contiguous land. How about the river banks? The idea had never been considered. You may remember this column discussed the river forest theory last year. The fishermen are for it; the boatmen want it; the conservationist believes in it, the vacationist needs it; the bird lover demands it for wild life protection and the taxpayers must have it to save bridges and lowland roads. Now the horsemen of the state are in the picture. Scenic Routes Possible With a continuous line of river forests in Indiana owned by the state and under the control of the conservation department to be administered in the same manner as the parks and the state forests, the horse lovers will have a right of way for miles along the state's most scenic routes. With the advent of every new saddle horse in the state, every farmer will prosper. It takes oats and hay to feed a horse. When the horse disappeared from the American stable, we began having a surplus of oats and hay and everything has been more or less haywire on the farms since. We hope the next forest acquired by Indiana will be a river forest. By no other means can we visualize more birds being killed with fewer stones. In no other way could we satisfy at once the demands of more classifications among the nature lovers than by adopting any other project. CARO PARTY SCHEDULED Women's Benefit Association to Sponsor Event Wednesday. Women's Benefit Association will hold a luncheon Wednesday at 2:30 East Ohio street. A card party will follow at 2:30. Members of the committee In charge are Mrs. Josephine Coibion. Mrs. Lulu Singer. Mrs. Alice Potlinger. Mrs. Mildred Parsons and Mrs. Hannah Hiatt.

CHAPTER XII The Creation of New Devils and New Symbols IN spite of the tremendous increase in material things resulting from the stimulus to the human spirit growing out of the Protestant revolt, no truly fruitful effort had beoti made to bring the kingdom of heaven to earth in terms of social justice. Into the vacuum, created by this failure, stepped those who claim that service to a particular nation, class or system is sufficient to command the highest spiritual aspirations of man. I am inclined to agree with Tawney and Weber that capitalism is a rather natural outgrowth of Protestantism; and I would go farther in saying that socialism, communism and fascism are in turn rather natural developments from capitalism. Spiritually, they are all much alike. Capitalism has commanded, and even today, commands a material type of religious fervor which is as unreasonable, dogmatic and theoretical as any long-established theology.

The faith of business men in lugged individualism, in profits unlimited and in the divine right of big business to call on government for help in case of need, while at the same time* government was to stay out of business under all other conditions, represented views so firmly held as to be beyond mere logic and in the realm of the transcendental. At one time, it was a part of the business man's creed to believe in the ten-hour day. More recently some of them with equal fervor have come to believe in the thirtyhour week. A Pennsylvania congressman, who has on his factory pay roll several hundred men. told me recently almost with an air of religious conviction that the way to stop unemployment was to put such a tax on all forms of improved machinery that wfc would all be forced to go back to more primitive ways of doing things. a a a HIS solution for the farm problem was to put such a tax on tractors and other improved agricultural machinery that farmers would be forced to depend almost exclusively on animal and hand labor. With all the fervor of our Protestant forefathers, he preached the doctrine of the simple life with regular, long, hard hours of work with simple tools. He wanted to turn back the hands of time, to encourage frugality and thrift and to bring about the accumulation of capital without encouraging the investment of that capital in the improved methods which he felt had been our nemesis. This man’s attitude, which doubtless represents that of millions, has in it some real truth but, of course, it is as theoretical and visionary in many respects as the view of the most unworldly professor or minister of the gospel. Many business men in the depths of their religious fervor have created new devils and new symbols. They hurl the word “chiseler” with terrible jagged force at any one who disagrees wilh them. Any one who points out that unduly high profits serve to unbalance productive power and consumptive power and that, therefore, the government so far as it influences profits through codes and agreements, of necessity has a real interest in the way in which profits may react on the stability of the industry under consideration as well as* the national welfare—is likely to be called a Red with the greatest intensity of conviction. as though the devil himself were being spoken of. a a a I HAVE listened to business men talk about the red devils in my own department and I know their intensity and understand the extent to which their analysis departs from the reasonable into the field of an emotional obscurantism, semi-religious in nature. There are certain things which business men hold sacred which center around the profit motive and which they look on as axiomatic and not to be questioned under pain of financial death, and in the old days, under pain of political death and social ostracism. I could say many complementary things about the "religion” of the business man, about their natural goodness of heart, the long hours and intensity with which they labor, the fortitude of the smaller business men under impossibly trying conditions and the generosity of many of the larger business men when they have made great profits. Under a machine civilization producing goods for transportation over wide areas of land and operating under a monetary system based largely on the debtcredit mechanism, the unrestricted profit motive brings on an anarchy terrible to behold. Business men themselves are now more or less recognizing this and are striving desperately to perfect

certain curbs which will enable them to go back again to the good old times. All of this is not surprising when we remember what a short distance we are from the pioneer frontiersman whose economic philqpophy was all too often, "While you are gettin’, git a plenty.” I wonder if the masterful intellect of Calvin would be more proud or sorry if he could come back to earth today and look over the history of the last three hundred years and see the way in which the great spiritual power of his doctrine had been used to give a hardy pioneer race the strength with which to exploit such vast natural resources in so brief a time, to see the way in which the business men, bred of this race, had nerved themselves for iron-willed competition with size of profits measuring the degree of success.
