STARVATION SEEN
FOR INDIAN TRIBES
Removal of Federal ReStric-
tons in Oklahoma Area Held
I Start of Suffering.
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press
OKLAHOMA CITY, April l8.-The
Daily Oklahoman says that many land
owning Indians belonging to the FIVE
Civilized Tribes, from whom Govern
ment restrictions will be removed April
IS. will be left in seml-starvlng conol-
ton.
AS restricted tribesman the Indians
are wards of the Government, which
approves their expenditures and has
general control over their affairs.
The Oklahoman story was printed
lust as Indian Commissioner Charles j.
Rhoads and congressional committee
arrived in the Stale to look into condi-
lions among the various tribes.
The coming open season on Indian
lands will be doubly miserable" the
newspaper says. owing to the fact that
many of the Indian land owners now
are in a semi-starving condition and are
undertaking to sustain life by digging
wild onions and poke in the woods and
fields. An open season on Indian land
grabbing at any time is someth hing to
cause conscientious persons to shud-
der"
When the Red Gross withdraws its
aid, the article continues. as it plans to
do when the current allotment of money

white mans greed. and they will be
tempted to part with newly released
land for whatever the white man offeIS."
The rich Osages recently employed
counsel to fight for retention of oil
rights to so per cent of the 10000
acres in Usage County, threatened in
suits by white men, who claim the min
eral rights passed to them on April 8
through purchase of the land.
Red Cross reports were cited to show
that many Indian landowners were
found in a half-starved condition on
various reservations.
Congress. in failing to extend re-
strictions, was not without warning"
the survey adds. "On February 81. 1928,
the Lewis Merriam Survey Staff of the
Institute of Government Research, sub
mitted to Hubert Work. then Secretary
of the Interior, an 847-page printed re-
port of national Indian survey made
at his request and covering a period Of
1S months"
The report indicated the citizenship
Of Oklahoma for lack of interest and
for court winking at Indian land
frauds"

Only Seven Deaths
On u. S. Railroads
Reported Last Year
Low Number Of Fatalities
Sets New Safety Record
for Carriers.

American railroads had but seven
passenger fatalities during 1880, the
lowest number ever recorded in one
year at the Interstate Commerce Com
mission, according to a report made
public today through the American
Railway Association
This number was three under the pre-
vious low mark of 1927, and 20 under
1929.
The safety record IS ascribed to i'm
provements and better physical condi-
ton of railroad equipment. installation
Of heavier rail, improvements in signal
ling devices and operating methods and
concerted efforts of both cfi1cials and
employees to promote safety in every
way.
Causes Of Fatalities.
OF the seven fatalities, four resulted
from a derailment due to distractions
placed on the track by persons I'M
known: the fifth resulted from the de-
railrent of a train by an automobile
which had stalled on the track; the
sixth from a train being derailed due
to the expansion CT rails caused by the
excessive heat last Summer, and the
seventh resulted from one train backing
into another.
For each fatality the railroads carried
1o1 ST. 900 passengers. This was the
best average ever attained by the rail-
reads of this country.
790 Injured I'm Year.
The number Of passengers injured in
train accidents in 1890 also was a new
low record. 100 having been reported,
as compared with 1,742 in 1929 and
/. 404 in 1928. For every person injured
in 1880, the railroads carried 100000
passengers. which was about twice as
good showing as in the preceding year.
Glass / railroads of the United States
in 1929 spent 1923, 100000 for the i'm
provement of safety and protection of
employees and the general public, and
tentative reports indicate that a slightly
larger sum was spent for that purpose
in 1880, the report says.

two belts to mount in his trophy room. He's proud of it and thinks he's got his moneys worth. On the other hand, if the native or
 resident of Alaska kills a bear he
 can't ship the pelt Outside; hence
 he has no motive to kill. If he is a stockman he can kill out of season if he catches a bear kill ing his sheep or cattle.
 It is unfortunate that these na- tionally writers, who also claim to be sportSmen, are not better

 say that the Kodiak bear which sometimes reaches weight of a l ton and has pelt 12 feet long only occurs on Kodiak Island and that if protection were lifted he might become exterminated to the ever lasting disgrace of this generation. They seem to lose entire sight of the fact that all the Alaska Penin- sula literally sWarms with bears, many of them bigger and better than the Kodiak bear. If they hunted them concertedly the next thousand years, they could not ex- terminate them. If you will recall something that Dr. Riggs wrote in the National Geographic Magazine after he had visited the Valley of Ten Thousand Smokes, you will remember that he saw bear tracks that were something like IA inches wide by 16 inches long or about the size of this magazine spread out"
 The bears live practically all over the timbered section of A. aSka. I have seen what we call a grizzly pulling down a full-grown moose in the White mountains near the Yukon. They kill more good game than the hunters do. To say that they are not killers of cattle and sheep is absurd to us who suffer their depredations ev- cry year. They have taken cattle from the governments own herd on Kodiak. From the H. s. Ab- bert ranch, four miles from the town of Kodiak, where he is rum ming 200 head of cattle and $50 sheep, the annual takings are stag gering. He estimates a loss of $12,- 900 in the past several years. He credits the bear with most of his profits. There are a number of instances where small ranchers have lost their entire herds of a dozen sheep and cattle in one on- slaught of the bears.
 And they say we can't raise cat- tie out here. We wonder if they ever heard of the three head of cattle that were left on Chirikof Island years ago and thrived there alone and unmoleSted all this time until they now number something like 300 head of wild cattle. Some of the bulls on that island weigh ton. During the past winter one of the homestead CTS in the vicinity of Kodiak was called away and left his cattle without feed or attention. They were still in good condition when they welcomed the spring grass.
 The bear is a terrible engine of destruction against salmon. When the run is on he will stand in the
 stream and flip the fish onto the
 bank. He likes to see their silvery
 bodies sailing through the air. He eats few but leaves hundreds to
 rot. Just why the government
 should maintain fish hatcheries
 to increase salmon and protect
 bear which destroy salmon is hard
 to figure out. Why should the AL aska Railroad be inviting settlers
 in when another department of
 government seeks to protect the
 predatory animals that will make
 it more difficult for those settlers? Will you please write the answer?
