RURAL MAIL CARRIERS
MUST HAVE MORE PAY

WASHINGTON.-Rural mail car
riers are resigning at the rate of 80
a day, w. D. Brown, representing the
National Rural Mail Carriers associ-
alton, told the senate postal COM
mittee, adding that the service faced
serious difficulties unless financial
relief was accorded the employees
soon.
He asked a permanent increase of
approximately so per cent over the
present base pay of $1,000 per an
mum, with a minimum base of 1920.
The increased annual expense would
be about $78,00O,000, he said.
The carriers do not earn as much
as farm laborers at the present time,
Mr.. Brown declared.
Edward ]. Brayn, appearing for
the railway postal clerks, told the
committee that the clerks, realizing
the. financial condition of the coun-
try, had decided not to ask much
needed salary increases at this time,
but would request only temporary
continuation Of the bonus now in eff
feet.

AMERICAN INDIAN
FAR FROM EXTINCT
STATISTICS SHOW NATIVE SONS
OF AMERICA HAVE ACTUAL
LY INCREASED

WASHINGTON. - Despite popular
belief that the civilization forced up
on him by the white man means his
ultipate extinction the North Ameri-
can Indian, reviving from a long per-
iod of decadence, has shown such sub
stantial increase in population in re-
cent years that he probably is scarce
ly less numerous today than when Col
umbus discovered America.
Startling as this assertion may be
those who have pictured American
forests in the diScoverers time as
swarming with red men, it is freely
advanced by experts of the govern
.ment's Indian bureau, who maintain
that the Indian necessarily formed an
exceedingly scant population which
probably at no period materially ex-
ceeded the total of 333 ,7O2 Indians re-
ported by the bureau for last year.
"The Indian no longer is to be
thought of as a dying race" declared
DR.. Lawrence w. White, an Indian au-
thority of the bureau. "In support of
that statement it is necessary, in the
first place, to disabuse the public
mind of the tradition handed down by
discoverers and early colonists that
American forests in their day swarm
ed with the dusky figure of the red
man. AS the Indian neglected agri-
culture almost completely, it is high
ly improbable that this country, con-
sidering it's latitude, could have sup
ported more than several hundred
thousand of his race
On the other hand, DR.. White con-
tinued, the Indian in the present day,
q flor. pnrin6c Of ch do fol
ing as a natural reaction to sudden
contact with the civilization of the
white man, is seen to be making sub
stantial gains in population.
While many estimates or guesses
of the Indian population were made
during the past century," said DR..
White, ranging from less than 100,-
900 to 100000, the first reliable census
was made by the Indian bureau in
1870, when the population was placed
at 313,712. So figures, demonstrate
that in the last SO years the Indian
has made substantial net
gain.
Pointing to statistics which show an
excess of births over deaths of 1922 in
1916 and almost as great an excess in
1917, normal years which were not af-
fected by the epidemic of influenza,
DR.. White declared these figures "ful-
ly reflected the generosity of a gov
ern1nent that has increased it's Indian
health appropriation alone from S4O,-
900 in 1911 to $3.50, 900 in 1917 and sub
sequent years. They demonstrate, he
said, that with the schools, hospitals
and other advantages now provided for
him, the Indian, be he tribesman or
freeman, is mot a dying race but
rather a flourishing one.' Had he
been treated as other nations have
treated savage tribes, DR.. White con-
cluded there probably would not be a
'vestige of the race within our re-
public today
