Mfes Of Imported

Mines Bureau Warns
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
The Bureau of Mines, after an
exploration for strategic domestic
mineral deposits, emphasized yester-
day a defense urgency for building
up imported stores of tin, manga
nese and tungsten, against a posi-
bility of sudden stoppage of over
seas supplies.
A report by Director R. R. Savers
to Secretary of the Interior Ickes
said, however, that in an emergency
the Nation might be able to turn
to domestic deposits for mercury and
antimony
Mr.. Savers said the bureau had
surveyed 80 deposits in II States of
various metals and that much of the
ore so far encountered was of low
grade or quality that would require
considerable metallurgical research
to make it usable.
A bureau spokesman emphasized,
however. the exploratory work was
not completed and the broad search
for the essential metals still was
under way.
Work on two tin-bearing areas in
the Black Hills section of South
Dakota and in Catron and Sierra
Counties, New Mexico, had con-
flrmed, the report said, that the
maximum output of tin possible
from domestic deposits would be
an inconsequential factor in sup
plying the essential requirements of
defense and related industry"
Americas largest imports of this
metal are from the Malay States
and the Dutch East Indies.
The exploration for manganese
Is producing some encouraging re-
suits, but the bureau foresaW need
for continued extensive importa-
tions of the ore that this Nation
in time past has obtained from
India, Russia, Brazil and Cuba.
Tungsten has been imported
chiefly from China, via the Burma
road. Mr.. Sayers reported projects
on this metal undertaken in Mono
County. Calf. and Pershing Coun-
ty, New, revealed erratic deposits
of loW-grade ore. Some extensions
of the known ore limits were found,
he said, but deposits were sub-com-
mercial and could not be considered
a substantial reserve.

TODAY, MODERN society

Few, except the "oldsters,"
know of the social glory that
attached itself to the Aspinwalls.

Defense Programs
Effect on Motoring
Public Is Discussed

Interests of the motoring public as
affected by various phases of the ma
tional defense program formed the
major subject of the l94l session of
the western conference of automobile
clubs, held at Seattle, according to the
Montana Automobile association.
In a series of resolutions. the con-
ference voted the stand of organized
motorists of the IL western states re-
garding phases of the defense effort
which directly involve the interests of
the motoring public.
Declaring that defense activities
have created serious problems of traf-
fic congestion in many western areas
the conference called upon congress
to appropriate sufficient funds to build
necessary access roads to military
camps and defense industries, and to
bring to early completion the network
of strategic highways in the west.
Federal and state governments were
urged to develop program of high
way construction and improvement for
the postwar period as means of
maintaining employment.

tribal headquarters and told Of the
breaking Of the Morgan treaty. The
tribe went on the warpath. The next
spring, in force, the Blackfeet made
an attack on the Sun river Indian
agency. There were but two white
men at the agency. Notice of the pres
ence Of the hoStiles was given when
one of these two men was shot from
ambush. The other decided to sell his
life as dearly as possible. The Indians
were of the opinion that the agency
was defended by a strong force and
were inclined to be cautious A burn
ing arrow set fire to the agency build
ing. This fire eXpoded large key of
powder, blowing the top Of the build
ing off. The Indians fled in conster-
nation, the lone defender escaping in
jury, and after the departure of the
Indians. made his way 10 a ranch
and safety on the Dearborn river.
Morgan, in the meantime, fearing
reprisals at the hands of the Black
feet whom he had so heartlessly be-
trayed. thought it best to get out OF
the Sun river country. With his family
he went to Helena and safety. I'm
mediately after the blowing up of the
agency the hoStiles went to Morgan's
place to wreak vengeance on their be-
trayer. They followed his fairly fresh
trail to the Old Mission, and on the
theory that he had taken refuge there,
lay in ambush about the place for
several days A man named Fitzpat-
rick, who ventured out of the mission,
was killed Then the Indians learned
that Morgan had gone on and gave
up the siege They went over to the
Dearborn, where they killed Charles
Carson. Thereafter they killed every
white man they happened to find in
lonely place. These murders con-
tinued until about 1870, when the
Baker massacre broke up the spirit
of the tribe They came to the con-
clusion that the medicine of the white
man was too strong for them and
fought him no more.

NEW BOOK TELLS
INDIANS STORY
in NATIVE STYLE
VOLUME BY WRITER'S PROJECT
PRESERVES EVIDENCES OF
OLD TRIBAL CUSTOMS

Under a program designed to pre-
serve evidences of the old way Of
life among Montana's Indian tribes.
one of the initial accomplishments
will be publication in November Of
the book, Land of Nakoda: The Story
of the Assinniboine Indians" an
nounced by the Montana WPA writer's
project
According TO Supervisor Michael
Kennedy, the book represents the first
of several to be done on the basis
OF an unique premise-that the In
dian should be allowed to tell, through
word and picture, his own story Of
his people
In the last half-century hundreds
Of books have been written by white
men about the many plains Indian
tribes. Some have been good; some
very bad" Kennedy says AL have
had one failing, the inability to COM
pletely capture the Indians way of
life as they themselves understood it
in the days before their shameful sub
jugation by the white man"
In Land OF Nakoda," the WPA
writer's project employed for almost
two years talented part-blood As
sHiilioOIile, TIlSl bOy. So lIldI no part
of the story would be lost. First Boy
was instructed to sit in with the old
est living members of his tribe, few
of whom spoke English, and to ques-
ton them in detail on the old way
of life. His notes are a verbatim tran
script. not only of what the old ones
told. but in the sequence and original
words of the telling. Aside from in
sistence on accuracy, the addition of

Of selection. white editors and writer's
on the project were instructed to re-
tain the full flavor of the Indians
style, with as little variation from the
original notes as possible.
After the manuscript was written.

services Of Fire Bear, a full-blooded

will contain more than 100 pen and

After the territory of Montana had
been created. Sidney Edgerton, Mon
tana's first governor, was called east.
During his absence, Gen. Thomas
Francis Meagher, territorial secretary,
was acting governor. Blood Indians,
allies of the Blackfeet, caught an ex-
pedition of nine white men and one
negro at the mouth of the Marias
river. They killed them to a man.
There was much excitement in Helena
over this massacre, and Governor
Meagher, always the soldier, decided
to make war on his own account He
organized force of militia to fight
the Blackfeet.
Montana's First Soldier
How many Montanans are there who
have heard of Capt. John Morgan,
the first soldier to engage in actual
war service in defense of the territory
He was one of Governor Meagher,s
militiamen. Morgan marched with his
command to Fort Benton and went
into camp there. In some respects he
was not unlike that other Morgan of
the Spanish main who took what he
fancied in the way of Spanish galleons
and sacked an occasional city, and was
knighted for these misdemeanors. The
Montana Morgan had a taking way,
too. He Communicated right and left
among the citizens of the river me-
tropolis, justifying his action because
of his needs, but always with the
assurance that he was purchasing sup
plies for the territory, which would
pay. He commended that he was there
to defend Fort Benton from the Black
feet and Fort Benton should furnish
sustenance and comfort for himself
and his men.
A WagonlOad of Happiness
Finally, the citizenry of Fort Benton
revolted. Morgan could have neither
food nor whisky unless he paid. The
food was of but little consequence, but
the cutting off of the supply of whisky
from his brave soldiers developed a
serious situation. How could he hold
his men without whisky? The answer
came speedily in numerous assertions.
Finally when the command had melt
ed down to less than 40 men, Morgan
decided upon action. If they could not
have whisky they could fight. So, one
morning his command, with flags

CHIEF OF BUREAU OF ANIMAL IN
DUSTRY TELLS WHY QUAR-
ANTINES ARE VITAL

Germany'S invasion of the channel
Islands. home of the Jersey and Guern-
sey dairy cattle breeds. has infected
them with foot-and-mouth disease. DR..
John r. Mohler. chief of the federal
bureau OF animal industry, told a Joint
meeting of the Michigan Veterinary
Medical association and junior chap
ter OF the American Veterinary Medi-
cal association. RusSia's invasion of
Finland last year brought the disease
to that country, too. Mohler asserted.
He emphasized the importance OF
maintaining effective guarantees to
protect American livestock from for
eign disease. and insure the success
of wartime and peacetime food pro-
grams.
Citing the part that the bureau of
animal industry is playing in the de-
Tense drive. he pointed out that ever
since its establishment in 1884, the
bureau through its research, has been
defending" the nations livestock
against diseases. The federal meat
inspection service of the bureau also
safeguards public health.
DR.. Mohler stated that the swine
sanitation system developed by the
Duiedu 10 IlelpAlS ldIultlS Inject 0eC-
rotary Wickard's call for greater pork
production. More than half the pigs
in the United States" he declared,
ARE now receiving the benefit of this
practical system based on veterinary
research" AS applied wholly or in part,
the system saves thousands of pigs
from roundworms and other parasites
and diseases associated with dirty hog
lots. He likewise cited beneficial de-
velopments in controlling hog cholera
through a rum-marketing agreement
that provides for a large reserve sup
ply and through closer supervision
over the distribution Of veterinary bio
logical products. These developments
provide better safeguards for the pres
ent and future pig crops.
In the program for dairy products,
DR.. Mohler showed how the we'll
advanced campaigns against bovine
tuberculosis and brucellosis Bangs
disease have made dairy cattle breed
ing safer and surer. In addition, eradi-
cation of cattle ticks from most OF
the south has increased the area suit
able for commercial production of
dairy products.
