 In Upstate New York
AID IS RUSHED

 Red Cross Steps In
(By The Associated Press)

ALBANY, July 9, - Exceeding flood waters left upstate New York with thirty-seven dead; eight are still missing and property damage has been estimated at approximately ten million dollars.
 More than two thousand are tenn porarily homeless and scores of Vill- ages and cities are presenting a formidable relief problem to state and federal agencies.
 A dozen towns and cities near the Pennsylvania border, and with in fifty miles radius of Binghampton appeared to be the worst sufferers.
 The story however, is the same throughout the area-ruined homes; wrecked communication lines and utilities, damaged highways; bridg- es washed out and railroad tracks washed away with an unestimated amount of crops and livestock lost.
 Governor Lehman obtained the transfer of twenty-five thousand EZRA workers and one thousand CCC men to the scene. The Red Cross rushed relief workers to the area today after the area had been stricken over the weekend with the worst flood in it's history.

one of the leading income produc- ing resources of the Territory is rotting with the advanced matur- ity that each season brings while the United States is importing a continually growing percentage of it's paper and pulp.
 When the making of paper from wood was first being developed, during the period from 186O-80, spruce of the northern states sup piled the entire demand for paper pulp.

 As Japanese Increase
(By The Associated Press)

MANILA, July g Pointing to a threatened loss of the entire Phil ippines' textile market by American exporters, due to the remarkable gains of the Japanese, Governor General Frank Murphy asked the insular legislature to increase the tariff promptly, as an emergency measure.
 In the past two years, Japanese exploiters have captured more than half of the textile trade with the Islands.
 The Philippines cotton goods im- ports have averaged twentyJthree million dollars annually since 1909. The Governor General cited that the American share was seventy-two percent in 1882; and forty percent last year.
 It was only thirty-eight percent for the first half of this year.

H. R. 2756. a bill introduced by Delegate Dimond to authorize the Tlingit and Haida Indians of Alas ka to bring suit in the court of claims for any claims they may have against the United States has been approved by the president.
 Known as the Indian Claims Con- mission Act, H. R 1887, bill to create an Indian Claims Commission is now before Congress. The pur- pose of the Commission is to invest igate all claims against the United States submitted by any communal group of Indians residing in the Un- tied States or Alaska, to ascertain the merits of the claims and to make a detailed report of it's find ings of facts of each claim to Con- greSS, together with it's recommen- dation for action to be taken. The Commission is to be composed of a Chief Commissioner and four As Sociate Commissioners, two of whom shall be Indians. The Commission CTS can be removed from office only for inefficiency, neglect of duty or in office While the bill does not provide for the settle ment of any Indian claim, it will greatly expedite the handling of all such claims by providing Congress with competent impartial advice on the merits of requests by the various tribes for the passage of jurisdiction al acts and will also speed the work of the Court of Claims by remov- ing much of the burden of fact find ing. As a member of the Commit tee on Indian Affairs Delegate Dim ond has been very active in devel- oping this proposed legislation, which has been favorably reported by the Committee.
