INDIANS FEAR
HUNGER PERIL
.Stories of HardshipS in Minne-s
sofa Revealed,
BY GEORGE BRITT
NEA Service Writer

WHITE EARTH, Mimi, April 3d.
You may hear a new photograph
luxuriously wailing, Where Is My
Wandering Boy Tonight?" in the same
one-room Indian shack which month
ago was on the ragged edge of
starvation.
Famine during the cold weather
here stalked through the huts of the
Chippewas, the Ojibways of Hiawatha
legend.
The Great White Father at Wash
ington relieved the acute need with an
appropriation of 500 to each
Chippewa.
The payment did a world Of good.
There was some squandering upon
hnery and gymcracks. upon cheap
automobiles and f1rewater, but cloth
ing and groceries were also bought.
According to leaders of the General
Council Of Chippewas of Minnesota.
the capable, educated Indian is bound
from asserting his rights and handling
his share Of the money and there is no
spur of practical necessity to convert
the backward Indian from dependence,
jmprovidence and slothfulness.
Next winter, they predict, will bring
its own similar stories of restitution.
There was little work this last win
ter Family after family, living nor.
mally under conditions which white<
people would consider shocking, shake
their heads to the visitor and say,
We had a hard time pulling through"
One responsible observer came back
with the story Of destitute old people
sending out young man with a shot
gun every morning. If he could kill
a crow, they had food.
