 On instance of how the Choctaw dialect of men under the command of Lieut.. Col. William J. Morrissey of the 142d infan- try proved of value in lodging the Ger man "listening-in" system was related Dy Dr. Dixon. In October, 1918, preceding the armistice, when the 142d infantry was in front of St. Etienne, on the Champagne front the Germans detected American troop movements by tapping wires. To avoid this Colonel Morrissey organized a signal square of Choctaws to transmit the messages in their original dialect This barbed-wire conversation, Dr. DIxon said was a barrage that non pIussed the Germans
 In working the code. 1t was found that there were no words in the Choctaw tongue for many military technical ex- pressions, and it was necessary to make up a table Of substitutes, such as "one grain corn" for first battalion,' and arrow" for ammunition.
 Dr. Dixon's plan proposes the establisc- mont of permanent regimental or bat talion headquarters on or near important reservations, a system of schools on or near reservations for the purpose of pre- paring Indian youths for a military ca reer and duties or citizenship, and a high school to be known as the Indian West Point, for instructing Indians in the duties of non-commissioned officers. The plan would allow Indian non-commis- stoned officers to enter regular officers schools,
 Other sections of the measure would de- clare all Indians of one-eighth or more blood. who shall have reached the age ot 2f years. or who shall have taken the prescribed oath of regular soldier of the United States, to be full citizens of the United States. Subject to a reading writing test, after 1929 all Indian gradu, ates of the reservation would be declared full citizens on reaching 2l years of age.

Washington, February IA pro- posal to organize one or more full di- visions of Indian troops as a part of the reorganized army and to be known as the North American division or d. visions, is pending in Congress as part of the army reorganization leglsla- tion.
 Many instances of exploits of per sonal heroism on the western front such as won for the Red Men in France the nickname of squirrel hunters beceaus of the deadly accuracy of their rifles in sniping contests with Ger mans. were furnished the committee as evidence of valuable man power which it is contented would be vast ed if the Indians are denied a place In the army scheme.
 Expertness at scouting and patroI- ing, particularly at night and in un known territory; disregard for per sonaI danger under fire, and unfalter- ing loyalty, were among the soldierly qualities the Indian was described as possessing to an unusual degree. Spe- cific cases are cited by pr. Joseph Dixon secretary of the National Am erican Indian Memorial Association. or which Rodman Wanamaker of New York is founder and president Dr. Dixon also read letter from General Pershing giving his "hearty approval to plan to enlist Indian regiments.
 A majority of the more than 17,0o0 Indians who saw military service dur ing the war were members of the sOth division the Texas and Oklahoma national army division, the 36th dlYl- sion, national guardsmen from the same two states, and the 165th infantry or old 69th New York. which received heavy Indian replacements to ffil the gaps produced in it's ranks by fighting on the Marne. But the Redskins serv- ed in many other unirs and in practi- cally all services.
