the Nee Perez Indians, friendly redmen

whites years ago, has informed State
oficials that q hunting treaty signed
so years ago has been abrogated by new

permit his braves to hunt and kill wild
game that abounds near the Neg Perez
reservation. Present Federal and State
statutes forbid the Indians from hunt
Ing except during the regular season.

rights of the Indians, as wards of the
Government, were not being Violated
