they were new to you or because they
were the customs of what we call CIV
ilization. On the other hand would

pathy which would keep for you all

which distinguish your forbears.
"a final answer, it would seem, to
those who would keep the Indian GUS
toms unchanged, was given by one
of your number tonight in telling of
the Indian medicine man who sang
for days and nights over a sufferer
from tuberculosis, keeping awake and
in agony the man whose great need
was rest and sleep. This is one of the
sacred customs which we must drop
as we advance in civilization. My

refused life insurance. | have out

have been their superstitions. My
children may outgrow some Of mine.
One of my grandfathers was a phys

hand would forbid you ceremonials.

ing of the blanket or long hair or

are better than some of our daughters
shoes. Their blankets were cheaper
than overcoats and for them equally
serviceable. Their hair was their
own. You, will not wear moccasions
nor long hair nor go back to the blan-
ket. The change, however, has been
brought about naturally. Just as a
tadpole becomes frog. His tail drops
off when he no longer needs its. The.
blanket has been dropped as the In

arm and the use of both hands. The
Pima and Papago Indians have cut
their hair without compulSion IS their
changed activities showed long hair
to be in the way. And the men of
other. tribes will follow their example.
Get new interests and activities and
such ceremonials as are In the way OF
progress will disappear as does the
tadpole's tail. The advice of the Com
missioner of Indian Affairs along this
line is sane and kindly Read it, list

bers of your tribes who may need it,

We have tried to keep you modest and

AUDITOR HOLDS HUNTS
VETO OF MEASURE VALID

Following receipt of an opinion
from the attorney general today rel-
ative to the veto by Governor Hunt
of various sections Of the highway bill,
especially relating to the veto of the
25 and rs per cent funds, AZ. E. Stel-
ger, acting state auditor, announced
that the auditors department would
hold that the governors veto was
valid and that there was no IS per
cent fund.
The question came up over the col-
lection by the state auditor of approx
imately $152,000 loaned by the state
several years to eleven counties in the
state to be used for the erection of.
bridges on important highways in
those counties. The bill authorizing
the loan made the provision that the
funds were to be repaid by the coun~
ties through the rs per cent fund, it.
being provided that one sixth of the
money going into the rs per cent fund
each year in the county owing for
bridge loans should revert to the state.
The opinion, which was. written by
A. R. Lynch, assistant attorney gem
eral, stated that if the veto of the
ROV6IuOE WdS NdllO, Clletl III ia pct
cent fund existed and the transfers
of the amounts due for the. year 1928
could not be made, The opinion states.
however, that the attorney generals
office hold and has held in former
opinions that the governor was not
vested with authority by the consti-
tuition to veto the bill in the nnanney
he did.
Mr.. Stelzer declared that the audi
tors department would not make the
transfers this year as the department
would go on the theory that no rs per
cent fund existed.

SUPT. BROWN ELUCIDATES
TO INDIAN GRADUATES

Supt. John B. Brown of the Indian
school at Phoenix, in The Native
American, the school publication, gives
the class of '23 some most excellent
advice along with some pertinent
points as to dances, both white and
Indian. The. general public is not
advised as to the character of some
OF the dances. Supt. Brown intimates
that some of their dances are not any
better than some of the white exhi-
bitions which brought down condem-
nation because of their vulgarity and
seasuou saiesss We are inclined to
think Supt Johns talk was the kind
