The Budget transmitted to Con-
gress containing the estimates of
appropriations for the Chippewa
Indian service in Minnesota during
the fiscal year commencing July L.,
1926, contains the following re-
quests for appropriations from the
trust funds of the Chippewa In
dians:
On page 500 is the following

rem. Under the laws of Minnesota
the public schools of the State are
open to Indian children the same
as to white children. No tuition is
charged any white child. The OBJ.
jecs of this appropriation is to as
sist those public schools attended
largely by Indian children and
which have not sufficient funds to
maintain them. 1t was never the
intention oftthe Indians that their
money should be used in paying
tuition for Indian children attend
ing public schools in Minnesota
generally. A limitation should be
placed upon the use of this money
so as to:restrict its use to schools

The Tomahawk observes that
year these same appropriations
totaled $3.50, $3.50. The appropria'
tions aked forethe next year are
So, $50 more than those made last
year. The statement of expendi
lures of the appropriations made
last year show that S71,98O have
been paid or will be paid before
the end of the present fiscal year
for salaries and wages of govern
ment employees. The appropria-
tion last year expressly limited the
expenses for the agencies to $47,-
100. 1t would thus appear that
about $4,000 of the appropria,
tions made for other purposes
were used in the payment of salar
les and wages of agency employees
in violation of positive law. The
statement furnished by the Indian
Bureau shows that $3O,000 will be
expended this year in the purchase
of provisions used in the hospitals
and schools. This would appear
to be unreasonable and that the
money was wasted. Although
$4,000 was appropriated last year
for the construction of additional
school houses, it doss not appear
that a dollar of this money has
been so expended, and the indica-
tions are that this appropriation
has been diverted and used for
other purposes. -" p

This item is plain waste of the
trust fund and should be stricken
from the bill. Under existing law
the department can use the entire
proceeds received from the sale OF
lumber from the Red Lake Reser-
vation. In recent years the Indian
Bureau has cut and sawed into
lumber several hundred million
feet of timber. If it has not re-
ceived a sufficient profit from this
timber to enable it to make neces-
sary improvements in and about
its logging operations and mill it
should not be permitted to take
money out of the trust fund and
squander it. The Tomahswk pro
tests against this extravaganza and
trusts that the Chippewa people
will see to it that this item is
eliminated from the bill.

The Tomahawk is not Informed
as to the necessity for this appro'

comment. Additional roads and

One thing i'm college athletics that
is unfortunate is the evident lack of
8, disposition on the part of many
colleges 10 take a beating. OF course,
every college, when it goes into com
petition, desires an even chance to
win. and ought to have it, but in
Z great many cases there are con
tinued attempts to schedule compe-
titions in which the opposing team
may be figured as not having an
even chance.
That tendency gradually Is being
done away with. and more and more
colleges are realizing that probably
one of the best functions of educa
tion is TO teach a boy to take a
knockdown and jump up and go at
it again. Courage is a necessary part
of the equipment of every successf ul
man, and, strange as it may seem,
one of the best ways to develop it is
to show that il does not hurt so
much to lose or to take a whipping.
Lack of courage is nothing more
than a fear of failure, fear of de-
feat, fear of taking a little punish
ment, and it is part of the problem
of education to eliminate that type
of fear.
