PHOENIX, Jan. /. fUP)-Rapid
increase of indian population on
Arizona reservations will bring SER
ious pressure upon their adequacy

the Indians if the present rate OF
increase continues for 25 years,
Secretary of the Interior Harold L.
Tckes warned today.
In his annual report of the de-
partment's business for the fiscal
year ending June 80. 1899, Ickes
said that particularly in the Nava-
1o reservation the problem is des-
perate. There is little prospect for
acquiring additional lands for the
Navajo reservation, his report dis
closed.
Department heads, particularly
the office of Indian Affairs, are
finding a new cooperation between
Indian peoples and the jurisdic-
ton of the white man. Under gov
ernment supervision, Indian natural
resources have ceased to disappear
through wasteful over-use; irri-
CATION projects enabled desert areas
to be put into useful production;
and the Indian continued to show
increasing interest in self-govern'
ment, Ickes declared.
Ninety-three tribes now are under
constitutions and bylaws, and s.

Mine Company Scrip
Runs a S65O,000,00
Yearly Business
Town Merchants Accept
II as Gosh and Sell Il
Like Foreign Exchange

~ the Associated Press.
Miners who pay for their cakes
and coffee with money based on a
"coal standard" have built up q
retail business totaling about $780,
100000 annually.
Their money" is the scrip of the
coal fields-printed coupons or
stamped discs of metal that take
the place of currency and coins. =
Each bit Of the coal field money.
whether ir coupon or metal style.
is backed by an individual coal COM
pany-the companys resources are
its coal.
Originally conceived as a means of
extending credit to miners between
pay days, the scrip system has
grown steadily with more and more
attention paid to the operation of
the company stores.
Pay More Than Mines.
Now on the records of the Ma
tional Industrial Stores Association
approximately 1900 such stores are
operating and each is doing an
average annual business of $3.50 900.
At some company stores a profit
sheet turns up at the end of the year
showing better returns than came
from the mine.
The system is simplicity itself. A
miner needing money goes to the
company Office, signs slip author
izing deductions from his wages
when pay day comes and is handed
company money"
Theoretically it is good only in the
company store. But some coal
fields merchants, recognizing their
competition, now have I'VE Cash
Scrip" signs in their windows. They
accept scrip at discount, then
use it in replenishing supplies by
purchasing standard priced articles
at the company stores.
Exchange Rate for Scrip.
As with all money systems, there's
an Exchange rate" for scrip. Buy
ers" cruise through the fields and
purchase the scrip for actual cash
from miners who need funds on trips
away from home. Regular "ex-
change" rates are available. De-
pending on demand-for cash-the
exchange ranges from 10 to 80 cents
on the dollar.
The scrip systeam reaches, too,
into textile and lumber industries,
where company stores sometimes
supply the needs of employees.
Combining their business with
that of the coal company merchants,
the National Industrial Stores Asso-
citation says the annual business OF
its 4.20O members exceeds $1,000,-
100000 Il
Most of the business is in scrip" :"
said Hull Bronson, executive secre-
tary of the association, but we're
going after regular trade, competing
with private merchants, and doing 1t
successfully"
