New Tribal Council
Building Proposed;
Now In Log House
Improvement Could Be
Cooperative With Agency
Participating; Last Winters
Fire In Old Quarters Urges
More Durable Structure

The building. which formerly
housed the Extension Service and
the B!ackfeet Tribal Business
Council, is being RACED this week,
damage done to it by fire early
this year not Justifying repair
ing for continuance of use.
The Tribal Councils quarters
are in the log building so yards
directly east of the old site.
The Tribal Councils ambition
ia for a structure that could well
dignity it's future career az well
as that of other set-ups serving
the welfare of Blackfeet Tribal
members.
The improvement, which could
be constructed and occupied on
an even Stephen basis with
the Blackfeet Indian Agency, has
been proposed in recent past
years. Its reality is one of the
substantial dreams of most of
those concerned with admins
traClVe WORK.
The improvement, some pro-
pose, would be a capital invest
meat of upwards of $50, 900. its
durability to face the many years
ahead when Blackfeet Tribal
members of succeeding genera
tiens will be concerned with meri-
torious endeavor.
The need of building that
would be fireDroof or at least con-
tain vault that could withstand
the ravages of a fire was urged
forcibly when the former
quarters of the Tribal Council
were damaged in last winters
blaze.
Under different circumstances
many valuable records and other
material of vital Importance
could have been damaged or out
right destroyed, it is pointed out.
Had flames completely swal-
lowed the building as to give the
safe a supreme fire test con-
tents. as in many a fire, may
have been destroyed or damaged
beyond le3ibitity. in which case
the Tribal Council might have
had to start from scratch

heroic sacrifice shall not be in yain.'

more than the national resolve retake the Phi ppnes
