BRIBERY OF THE STATES

President Coolidge, in discussing
the budget, attacked the system of
congress giving federal aid to states,
conditioned upon the state legisla-
ture or the people voting as much
more money for the project.
He pointed out that estimates
were called for more than 100000 :
600 for highways, boats, naval and
harbor improvements, naval bases
and even Notifications, providing the
states raised as much more money.
AS a matter of fact, no more per-
nicious system of dubling up appro-
pfiations and burdening the people
with high taxes and bond issues, has
ever been invented
1t is employed extensively extern
sion work, giving so much to each
state or county if the state or county
will raise as much more.
1t is system that, once inaugural
ed, leaves the states and their sub
divisions helpless against the pres
sure and demands of paternalistic
officialism that wants to spend the
money.
President Coolidge spoke of this
system of federal subsidies while
other authorities use stronger terms
such as bribery and political hi
lacking"
Under one of these laws, the fed
eral government sent the governor
of Maine $4,000 to spend on matern-l
ity care in one city and he promptly
returned the check with letter that
is classic.
Massachusetts refused similar ap-
preparations from the federal gov
eminent showing that for every dol
lar received, it took SIS additional
taxes out of the people.

AS it is apparently necessary

to act as secretary of the meeting.
Three resolutions were put before

to endorse the employment of Mr..

Resolution No. 2 was iu the same
words but endorsing Mr.. Webster
Ballinger as attorney; while reso.
luton No 3 endorsed both Bell

Commissioner of Indian Affairs to
select either one or both of them

per capita payments will average
between $40O and $500 for each
family. The Chippewa tribal
fund now in the United States
Treasury amounts to about 81
500, 900 and further additions to
this fund are expected through the
passage of bills authorizing pay
ment for. lands and timber in the
Minnesota Forest Reserve which
formerly belonged to the Chippe-
was and for which the Indians as
yet have received no compensation.
The amount due the Indians for
the lands and timber in the Forest
Reserve is in the neigh5orhood of
So. 100000, thus should swell the
Chippewa tribal fund to nearly
So, 100000. Besides this the
Chippewas have large amount of
money due them in other claims
against the United States, and
which are to be- settled by the
Court of Claims as soon as the
Chippewas secure a jurisdictional
act, which it is expected they will
be successful in securing at this
session of Congress.
Should Mr.. Wefald be successful
in his effort to have his per capita
payment bill passed before Christ
mas the Chippewas should receive
the payment early in January.
