SENATE PASSES
PENSION BILLS;
NO ALTERATION
Old Age and Mothers Pen
sion Bills Excluding In
dians Passed Today.

The Senate today passed the two
House bills covering the old age
pension and mothers pension sys-
TENS introduced there to meet the
demand of Indians to be included in
the provisions of both laws. Efforts
to amend the measures in the Sen
ate were not successful.
AS originally introduced by Paul
it was proposed to remove the re-
strictions which limited the pen
sions to white residents of the Ter
ritory. After he had threatened to
tie up all pensions by attacking
their validity, the House adopted an
amendment, drawn by Jensen,
which was intended to exclude In
dians and at the same time make
the pension laws reasonably safe
from legal attacks.
The wording of the amendment in
both cases was virtually the same.
AS included in the old pension
measure. it reads: "This act shall
not inure to the benefit of any In
dian or Eskimo resident of the Ter
ritory who is provided for by the
Department of the Interior out of
the funds of the Treasury of the
United States OIL to any ward of the
Government of the United States
