Guilty was experienced in getting the Indians
to register - because their pride had been
hurt by the implication that it was necessary
to draft an Indian. That attitude was summed
up succinctly on Sioux Reservation in the
Northwest when the Indian agent notified
lad in the carpentry school of the registration
date.
Eyes flashing, the young Redman threw
down his hammer with bang.
''Since when," he demanded hotly, has
it been necessary to conscript the Sioux as
fighters?"
Whereupon he and eight of his companions

Recently read that American short-wave
monitors had picked up German broadcast
by the inimitable DR.. Goebbels, dwelling at
length upon the sad fate of the American
Indian. Being part Indian myself, it
struck me that the least 1 could do for
the good doctor is to give him some more
facts for another broadcast.
In view of the injustices described by Herr
Goebbels, am sure he will be interested in

maintenance men. The finest automobile
drivers in the Army are the Florida Semi
noles, who have for years been driving bare
footed through the Everglades, taking in their
stride mud and swamps which would reduce
many seasoned trucker to despair.
The Signal Corps is consistently trying to
get more Indians In the last war they proved
themselves invaluable for telephone and radio
communication. When couple of Indians
deliver messages to each other in their tribal
dialects, no code is necessary.
The place of the Indian in the war effort
is not confined to service at the front. Even
the Puebloes have AFRAID wardens and black
outs. In the barren wastes of northwestern
Arizona. where hydro electric lines might
attract the saboteur, some 500 Navajo horse
men ride constant patrol.

In BELLINCFIAM, WASH, when 30-year-old
Leo John came to Home Guard drill sop
ping wet, a casual question uncovered the
fact that twice week for six months he had
been walking II miles from his home to the
armory to render this voluntary service.
The number of Indians in service
would be much larger were it not for
tho fact that 80 many Of them have been
snapped up by war industries. Over 2,5OO
Indians are now at work in armament pro-
duction. Several airplane plants on the West
Coast have placed standing orders with the
Indian Bureau for as many men and boys as
they can get.
When the Sill ,OOO, 600 Ordnance Depot was

the speed, efficiency and enthusiasm of the

versatility could be found in so-called primi-

ished their contract two months ahead of
schedule at saving to the Government of
$4,000.
Other Indians, unable to fight or do war
work, are making equally impressive financial
contributions. Tribes whose individual men1-
bers don't see 500 in cash in year are chip

In the last war Sergeant York's closest
rival was Private Joseph Oklahombi. Choc-
taw, who, single-handed, stormed a position
containing more than so machine guns and
a number of trench mortars, holding it for
four days under constant barrage of gas and
high explosives, and returning, finally. with
III prisoners through 200 yards of barbed
wire under continuous fire.
To those who know the Indian only through
the Wild West movies, the thought of him in
a tank or behind an antiaircraft gun; in the
pilots seat of fighter plane - or on the
bridge of a cruiser at sea - is strange and un-
