The white man didn't get AM

Actually, Ickes said in a re-
port on Indian dealings, ap-
proximately $500, 000,O has
been paid for the IS per cent
of the public domain lands ac-
quired from the red men by
treaty since 1880.
Some 100000 square miles
of territory were thus obtain
ed by a total of 389 treaties

AS for the famed purchase
of Manhattan Island from the
Indians for $24, Ickes jokingIv
suggested that if the Indians
has invested the money at 6
per cent compounded interest
they now would have enougb
to buy back the island At cnr

PRAGUE, July 14-tR-President
Eduard Benes said today that
Czechoslovakia could begin remov-
ing its unreliable German and Hun
garian residents within a few
weeks if the Big Three approve at
Potsdam.
Nothing less than the transfer of
two to two and one-half million
Germans and about 100000 Hun
garians can assure the nation a
reasonably secure future Benes
said in an exclusive interview.
Czechoslovakia, he added, is de-
termined never again to try I'M
workable compromises with Ger
man minorities as it did in 1899,
when the Germans showed their
allegiance lay across the border
But the whole project OF clean.

Czechoslovak president said.

Three powers.
Russia from the start was sym
pathetic toward the transfer plan
Approval of the western powers
was REGARDED as equally necessary

be well-organized and carried out
with the least possible friction
third, that the whole program be
conducted as humanely as possible.
President Benes said he wanted
no repetition of the wartime refu-
gee spectacle, with suffering thous-
ands cluttering the highways.
1--WE could start within a few
weeks" Benes said, "but of course,

The newspapers estimate was
reported in Japanese domestic

about 1000 U. S. airmen we're

1t arrived at the $50 figure by
adding together 158 Superforts

those unconfirmed; 146 claimed

IN substantial reduction in

THE new year should see
growing amounts of aluminium

development.
Prime examples of this first
classification are airplane land

War By-Produets
are Helpful in
Postwar Housing

MINNEAPOLIS-U.P) - One
of the major factors in postwar
housing, aside from the need for
volume construction, will be the
undermining of homes with new
equipment which industry has
discovered as a by-product Of
war manufacture or had devel-
oped just before Pearl Harbor, c.
B. Sweat, vice-president of the
Minneapolis Honeywell Regula-
tor Company, said today in a
year-end interview.
Estimates OF home contruc-
ton during the first postwar
year range from 100000 to
/ 100000 units, Sweat observed,
with the larger figure reflect
ing while the lower estimate is
based on fear of reconversion
problems, including early ma.
terial shortages.
There can be no doubt, how
ever he added, that no matter
how many new homes are built,
they will be constructed around
the idea. of more comfortable and
more efficient living than we
have known in the past"

Kelly Begins
Second Term
Enjoys EnviobIe
Public Support

LANSING, Jan. 2-(P)-Fav-
ored as few other governors
have been in recent years, Gov
ernor Kelly today entered his
second administration.
He was armed with the un-
questioned leadership of his Re-
publican party in the state, the
support of a friendly" team Of
state elective officials and the
first unbroken four years in
power granted Michigan gov
ernOr in Is years.
Inaugurated Monday in SIM
pie ceremonies for his second
term, the governor had 48 hours
IN which TO make final plans TO
greet the 63rd legislature which
will convene Wednesday.
For weeks he has ordered his
department heads and subordi-
mates 10 withhold discussion of

The shift from one administra-
ton TO the other was plain and
