about. People can start societies
here and call them what they like.
What they do when they get start
ed is another matter, and if there
are any people who think that an
organization following the prac
tees of the Khan in the United
States can thrive in this country,
let them 60 to it. The result Of a
brief attempt would be decidedly
educative to the promoters, and
would advertise to the world the
effective manner i'll which law
enforcement is usually carried out
in this country-by the proper
authorities and not by self-ap
pointed guardians and administra
tors of the law.
The Khan may flourish in some
parts of the United States, and the
Fascist by similar strong-arm
methods in Italy, but the climate
of Canada is not suitable for any
such growth. 1t is only in coun-
tries where there has been serious
weakness in law enforcement or a
serious loss of confidence in the
civil government, that private or
CARNATIONS are able to take the
law into their own hands, No such
general conditions exist in Canada.
Law enforcement may not he per-
feet, but the population as whole
has had great respect for law and,
generally speaking, our laws have
been we'll enforced.
There is no excuse for the Khan
in this country and if it should
start any high.handed work the
outcome could be awaited with
perfect confidence. The authori
ties would deal with it before it
had got beyond the first stage
And if it refrained from lawless
ness and violence, and confined
itself to fostering religious and
racial antipathies, public opinion
would deal with it just as effective
ly and as summarily.

the lake had been patented to the
State of Minnesota under the
Swamp Land Donation Act, and
that the small amount of land re.
naming unpatented adjoining the
lake had been applied for by the
|, State as swamp land. There is
now pending in the Supreme Court
of the United States suit brought
in the name of the United States
against the State of Minnesota to
recover back every acre of this
land previously patented to the
State and for the cancellation of
all pending applications for other
lands. If the United States pre-.
walls in that suit all of the lands
around Rice Lake will be recover
ed back and will be the property
of the Indians. All that can now
be done is TO preserve the present
condition of the lake pending the
termination of that litigation.
Accordingly Commissioner Burke
has taken the matter up with the
Department of Justice with the
view of having a suit filed to
enjoin the officials of Clearwater
County from constructing any
bitches, or operating any existing
bitches, that will drain, or tend to
drain, Wild Rice Lake. The indi
cations are that within a few
months the rights of the Indians
will be fully protected by order of
the court.
This only illustrates what can be
accomplished when there is active
corporation on the part of the
Department with the Indians.

dition many of their young people
served in defense of our country.

ticate to be issued, signed by him
self, expressing the appreciation
and thanks of the Nation for such
splendid patriotism. And l have
been instructed by the Commits
sioner of Indian Affairs to give

ter Of the delivery of this certifi.
cate.
For the purpose of carrying

Day, at which time, at the most
suitable time of the day, l will
present the certificate to which
reference is made to the White
Earth Indians. !
The people of White Earth and
the surrounding country are re-
specially requested to arrange a
suitable program for this occasion
and they are invited to come to
this meeting and assist in carrying
out the program. And Indian
ex.service men are especially re,
quested to attend and take part in
the exercises.
Very respectfully,
