CHIPPEWAS WARN
 WHITE FATHERS
Removal of Agency at Cass Lake, Minn., Almost
 Causes Tribal Outbreak

Cass Lake, Minn., March 30- (UP).-Solemn elders of the Chip pewa tribes, concerned by angry mutterings among the Braves, warn ed the great white fathers in Wash ington today that removal of their tribal agent is necessary for peace on the Cass Lake reservation.
 They asked John Collier, commis- sioner of Indian affairs, to replace Louis Balsam, superintendent of the Consolidated Chippewa Agency, be- cause, they said, he has been un- fair.
 The chiefs summoned nearly 500 tribesmen last night to a pow-Wow in the Indian cooperative building tc protest transfer of their agency headquarters from the Cass Lake reservation with the office so far away.
 The pow-wow presented more peaceful picture than was seen on the reservation yesterday when the Braves streaked their faces with war paint, donned ceremonial regalia danced to the beat of tom-toms and the encouraging cries of their squaws.
 They were calm when they filed into the hall and seated themselves before their chiefs. There was no war paint and no yelling.
 Speaking in their native tongue, the Indians voiced disapproval of Balsam's administration and said he had not been their friend.
 From his place in the council, George Selkirk of the White Earth reservation, said Balsam should have discussed removing the agency at tribal council, as provided by the Howard Wheeler act.
 We do not so much protest the removal" he said, "aS the way i'll which it was done without consult ing us"
 The Indians were notified yester- day of the decision to transfer the office.
 When Balsam began to read the order, a dozen squaWs attacked him. He beat them off and retreated to his office where he was barricaded for several hors while hostile tribes men whooped outside. Finally he got out of the building and left hastily for Duluth.
 Adopting the white mans strategy, 200 Indian sswarmed into his quar- ters and began sit-doWn. They squatted on desks, filing cabinets chairs.
 They left only after receiving per- sonal assurances from Chief Clerk Walter J. Clark that the moving had been abandoned until further mo- tice. Five Braves remained to watch for any change in plans.
 CasS Lake residents, disturbed by the war-like demonstration, recalled that the Chippewas of the Bear Island tribe caused the uprising in 1898 in which Maj. Melville c. Will kinson and six others were killed.
 The only casualty yesterday, how ever, was Hole-inthe-Knee (Mrs. Katherine Clark, who was injured slightly during the melee at Ball. sam's office. She swore out a war rant against Balsam charging as- sault but local authorities said it would not be served flor few days at least"

Note To All Sirens

If some of the modern girls had lived
under the laws of the Euglish parlia-
ment in the 18th century, it would have
been too bad for them. AS for instance,
an act passed in 1910 contained the fol-
lowing:
"a woman of whatever age, rank,
profession or degree, virgins, maids,
or widows, that shall from and after
the passing of this act, impose upon,
entrap into matrimony and of his ma
jesty's male subjects by scents, cos
metics, paints, washes, artificial teeth,
false hair, Spanish wool, iron stays,
high heeled shoes or bolstered hips,
shall incur the penalty of the law now
in force against witchcraft, sorcery
and such like misdemeanors and that
the marriage upon conviction shall
stand null and void"
