Postwar Plans For
Blackfeet Industry
Proposed By Brown

proposed BY Br0Wn
The following contribution by
James Brown contains proposals
meriting t h consideration o f
people of the Blackfeet Reserva-
tlCn:
Throughout the United States
they are employing their best
beads in the formulation of post.
war plans so that when our fight
ing forces return they will see
what they have been fighting for.
We, too, have duty to per-
form. We cannot expect t h e
government to provide for each
individual. We belong to al army
on the home front and it is up to
US to DO our part in appreciation
of the sacrifices they are making
on the fighting front in order to
make this better world.
Now, when our fighting forces
return and find that nothing has
been done b Y the home front
they are not going to think so
much of US.
There's no use in trying t o
dodge the issue, We know that
we are confronted with two
hundred billion dollar debt and
more added every day that is 60
ing to take more than so years 70
pay y --.-----,,--,.--a.. .as-,.-5z.
There is only one way that
that debt can be paid, and that
is through production-and more
production.
In order to produce we must
have working capital. And that
important part | am trying to
convey.
We have made a great mistake
in voting to let our repayment
cattle be taken away from US at
time when they could be used
as a part of the postwar planning.
Not only for our returning SOL
diers, but as we'll for those at
home.
They have the land and know
t h e cattle business. There is
nothing else they can do.
Then why let the repayment
cattle be taken away when that
is the very foundation o f our
leading industry.
| think we had better leave
this in t h hands of our big
fathers, the councilmen, to recon-
slider.
There is another thing to be
considered: The repayment plan
is workable plan and safe in.
vestment. There can be no bet
ter for this country.
Then our farming districts that
have been used in the raising of
sheep should be converted into
an out and out project, evacuat-
Jog the sheep grower to a more
favorable district, more suitable
to that purpose. Through the
farming and repayment cattle we
would have something to offer
the boys upon their return.
Now, what about our girls!
They also are doing their part,
but seem to be left entirely out
of the picture.
Several years ago the late Rob-
j. Hamilton and l worked on a
plan of putting wooden mill in
operation at Glacier Park Station
where it would be convenient to
water power, electrification and
transportation. All conveniences
were in our favor, even conform
ing with our sheep-raising indus.

Salvage Heads See
1943 Goals Reached

With paper salvage collections
mounting and scrap metal continu-
ing to come in faster, District Sal
wage Committee officials yesterday
said prospects were good for achiev-
ing goals set for the last six months
of 1913.
Rain yesterday delayed paper COL
lections in the Southeast and Horace
Walker, executive secretary Of the
Salvage Committee said no report
on the amount contributed by resi-
dents in that section would be
available before tomorrow. One
Saturday each month is devoted to
gathering paper salvaged for the
war effort.
Scrap iron and steel fell off in
September for the second successive
month, but paper scared to a new
high of 8,553,750 pounds. The pre-
vious best figure was recorded in
July when 2,249,294 pounds were
salvaged. The city now has 1894
GIT pounds towards filling 60,OOO,-
900 pounds quota.
Scrap metal collections last month
totaled 1929 52 pounds, for a grand
total OF 1882 ,592 in the last three
months. The quota is $4,000 900
pounds. The September figures
marked a decrease of almost 600 900
pounds under August, which was
almost similar volume below July

Alexandrians 10 Discuss
Postwar Education Needs

A public meeting sponsored by the
Alexandria Education Association
will be held at 8 pm. Tuesday in the
auditorium of the George Washing
ton High School to discuss wartime
and postwar education programs.
Among the subjects to be discussed
is the modification of the Virginia
retirement law, and the proposed
increase in State appropriation for
teachers salaries which will come
before the State Legislature during
the 1914 session.
Miss Ethel Spillman, president of
Virginia Education Association, will
discuss policies and objectives pro-
posed by the association.
Francis s. Chase, executive sec
rotary of the association, will talk on

cation" He will attempt to show

East Silver Spring, will carry on
its collections until it has accumu-
lated truckload or approximately
5000 pounds, at which time the
paper will be picked up by the
dealer handling the school program.
Other nearby Montgomery County
schools where were in the program
last year can come into the new
program on the same basis but
shortage of gasoline makes it i'm
possible to include them in the
weekly pickup schedules.
Another windfall for one of the
schools came last week when a
resident near the Park View School
reported he had at least a ton of
paper in his home which he was
willing to give to the school If
the students would pick it up. This
information was passed on to the
school and the paper will be in
cluded in Park Views collection
next week.
