Commissioner Leupp Prepar-
ing Amendment on Bill
Now Pending.
PRINCIPAL REFERENCE IS
TOWARD INDIAN SCHOOLS
Policy of Indian Bureau Has Been to
Permit White Children to Enter
Indian Schools on Same Basis as
Indian Children Enter White Schools
Wants His Position Affirmed.

Associated Press to The Exeaine Times,
Washington, Dec. 28.-Commis-
sioner Leupp of the Indian Office will
ask congress to legalize the practice
of the department in permitting white
children to enter Indian schools on
the same basis as Indian children are
permitted to enter white schools. 1t
is the policy of the Indian Office to
break up the Indian reservations
wherever possible, and to allot the
lands owned by the Indians and put
the wards Of the government on SELF
supporting footing. To do this ef-
fectively, the old barriers; are being
broken down and Indians in many Sec
tions of the country are attending the
district schools, the Indian bureau
paying into the county or state treas
ury the cost per capita Of Indians edu-
Gated as assessed against each white
child, which amounts to about 81 per
quarter. In many localities of the
west and northwest, Indian schools
are the only schools in widely separ-
ated areas. It has been Commissioner
Leupp's policy to permit white chill
dren to enjoy the privileges of educa-
tion granted Indian children on the
theory that there was no law against
such policy and he is now preparing
an amendment to the Indian appro-
priation bill now pending before the
senate committee on Indian affairs,
affirming the position he has taken.

SERv|AN DISORDERS
King is Confronted With Vari-
GUS Perplexing
Questions.

Belgrade, Servia, Dec. 2S.-The ma
tional assembly has accepted the loan
armament bills, which were sent today
for signature to King Peter.
The debate on these measures was
attended by disorderly scenes on the
part of members of the assembly, aris-
ing from the open expression Of
sentiments against the present Kara
georgevitch dynasty, which gave rise
to reports in German and Austrian
quarters of a movement to dethrone
King Peter. Following the street dis
orders of the last few days, the oc-
currences in the chamber have added
to the seriousness of the present sit
uation.
The king is confronted with many
difficult problems, not least of which
is the renewed activity of the support
ers of the late King Alexander and
Queen Draga, who were murdered the
night of June 10-11, 1908, and the pop
ular i'll feeling aroused by the recent
escapades of George, the crown prince.
One of the deputies opposed the loan
on the ground that the members of
the reigning family would personally
pocket large proportion of it, and the
final debates brought out anti-dynas
tic demonstrations in which a number
of riotous students sustained serious
injuries. Premier Pasics has receiv-
ed number of threatening letters
intimating that the present dynasty
will meet fate similar to that of its
predecessor.
The late King Alexander was a
member of the Obrenovits family. 1t
is asserted that secret, meetings of
the anti dynatisc leaders have been
held here for the purpose of selecting
a European prince as a successor to
King Peter in the event of success
full anti-dynastic movement.
