fire to one and by blocking the street

There was heavy shipment of

vance, which was partly lost later
in the day when the demand was
less active. Few heavy cattle were
offered. Fancy steers and oxen sold
at 1-2@10 1-2c, with good at S@9c:

Stewards Washington Letter
BY CHARLES p. STEWART
NEA Service Writer.

WASHINGTON.-Ju how much, il
anything, the United States owes the
American Indians for taking their con-
tinent away from them never will be
settled, of course, but this much is GER
tain:
The Indians have claims pending for
an unpaid balance of approximately a
billion and a quarter of dollars, prin-
cipal and interest.
It seems a modest sum for all of
North America, between sthe oceans,
east and west, and from zthe Canada
line, in the north, to Mexico and the
Gulf, in a southerIy direction.
WAMPUM AND OIL.
! Something has been paid on account,
to be sure In wampum, in reservations
and oil lands, in education and in civil
izing influences.
Still, since the wampum wasn't worth
Ianything, the reservations and the oil
lands We're the Indians in the first
place and the education and civilizing
influences were forced down their
throats, much against their will, per-
haps their $1,25O,OOO,OO0 demand, isn't t
altogether unreasonable
The United States Department of Jus
tice has been footing up the figures
recently.
Nobody can sue theCUnited States
without the governments own permis-
sion, but Congress has granted it in
these cases, now before the court Of

CREEKS FIRST CLAIMANTS.
The earliest claimants are the Creeks
of Georgia, who accuse no less per-
sonage than Andrew Jackson of de-
priving them of their lands in 1913,
without just compensation. They want
$195, 900.
The Sioux Nation redskins, however,
are the prize litigants. The Sioux are
after $SQOOOO,OO0, which they contend
they were gyped out of following the
Custer massacre.
Sentiment, they represent, was
against them at the time-those We're
the days when no Indian was regarded
as a good Indian but a dead one
Besides, Black Hills gold was such a
temptation to the whites that it is de-
clared to have over-ridden all sense of
justice on the latter's part.

CAMPuS MYsTERY.

He was a Yttla wizened, shriveled
up, emaciated, imbecilic type of hu-
nance, peering out from behind enor-
nous, Undetermined goggles, with a
droop in his shoulders, and wearing
a threadbare and shiny old suit He
had face which bore the evidence
.of haN'ng been stepped upon by an
elephant. Yet despite his homely mush
and terrible shape, he was the most
popular man on the campus. Beautiful
co-eds, with ruby lips and pearl-lille
teeth, flirted with him shamelessly
Football heroes covered before him
and trembled at his every word. The
ritziest fraterHties extended him a
welcome hand.
He was a professor

More Truth Than Poetry
BY JAMES j. MONTAGUE
THE HOOP SNAKE.


The hoop snake did not have to crawl
Or wriggle, writhe or squirm at all.
When he embarked on tours or trips,
He took his tail between his lips
And thus a spokeless wheel became
Whence comes, of course, his curious
name.
BY hunger or by fancy led
Ger hill and dale he lightly sped
A mode of travel far more fleet
And easy than to walk on feet.
Most people would be we'll content
If they could roll where e'er they went
without the jolts and bumps and jars
OF railroad trains and motor cars.
Or the fatigue to which they're put
When they're compelled to go afoot.
But they and all their kin and kith
Are something more than just a myth,
Which ought to comfort them because
That's all the hoop snake ever was.

The situation in Italy caused Alfred
Hampton to remark:
"The way Premier Mussolini shoul-
ders the burdens of the nation is naive,
to say the least. Indeed. he reminds
me of the young man who had just
finished kissing his sweetheart.
II suppose, said the girl, signing.
that you have kissed lots of girls be-
fore.
oh, yes, replied the young man,
but all in preparation for you.

Chinese schoolboy in one of the
foreign missions was asked by his
teacher, an American, to paraphrase the
following two lines in Chapman's
Homer sonnet:
Then felt l like some watcher of the

When new planet swims into his

The lads efforts read: "Under above
stated circumstances poet experienced
novel sensation as if thunderbolts had
swum into one of his family members"
