Veterans. Attention.!
It is indicated in recent reports
that large number of veterans of
World War II have allowed their
National Service Life Insurance to
lapse. Since these policies are un-
usually advantageous, at low rates
it would seem to be worth unus-
ual sacrifices to hold onto them.
The time within which applica-
ton for reinstatement may be
made without physical examina-
ton has been extended to August
of this year, I understand that the
payment of only two monthly pre-
miums will reinstate lapsed pol
icy to the current month in which
reinstatement is made, one to COW
er the payment for the month the
insurance lapsed, and the current
for the month in which
reinstatement is made. The SEN
ate Labor Committee has approx
ed several suggested bills for in
creasing allowances of veterans,
both those working and those in
school. ID

crease, however, is in the use of
oil burning units for home heat

The Russians Wouldn't
Get It

We talk of those Russians being
difficult to understand. But there
are some things our totalitarian
neighbors would never be able to
understand about us. They just
would not get it. The way we ar
gued and fused over the labor bill
Congress just passed, for example.
Then when the bill became law,
we all settled down to see if we
can abide by it. This is what we
call majority rule, through the elect
ed Representatives of the people.
In our kind of set-up, people are
given credit for being able to think
for themselves. Facts are easy to
get hold of. Viewpoints may be
freely expressed. We make up
our minds, and our representatives
at the seat Of government try to
carry out our wishes. Things do
not go like this in the totalitarian
countries. Such questions would
never be placed before the people
in the first place. Regardless of
everything else, the will of the die
tator would prevail.
Labor Shows Spirit
Organized labor, in its attitude
toward the Taft-Hartley Bill, has
demonstrated the manner in which
the peoples mandate is accepted
in a lard where laws are deter
mined by the will of the majority,
but where all minorities are respect
ed. The bill was the most con-
troversial Legislation to come up in
years. Much feeling was developed.
Lobbying was everywhere.
Yet, when the labor bill became
law over the Presidents veto, and
when the President had stated that
he'd sincerely enforce it and not
sabotage the law, the top leaders
of labor affirmed there would be no
general protest strikes. Rightly,
they declared they would test it in
the courts, where laws should be
tested. If the legislation is in error,
time will tell. In the true Amer
lean tradition of fairness and JUS
tice, we are awaiting the proving
and testing Of the new law.
The Way 1t Works
l'oW, Wollu ike 10 say tnat the
whole nations economy is the direct
result of this sort of thing. We
may not like the decision of the
majority, but we 60 along and make
1t work. We bank on the majority
being right. We are willing to let
the majority, through our elected
representatives, write the laws.
Economics used to be big word.
Now, nearly everybody understands
it to mean the way we use our re-
sources and consume our wealth.
This includes production, buying,
and selling. 1t includes the activi-
ties Of labor and of management.
Traditionally, in this country, we
have allowed our economy to re-
main free of artificial. barrier

horse by today's a n d a d S
There was horse racing all day
long. In their rodeo was the
best riding ever seen. No sad
die or bride bareback with rope
around the horses jaw. There
were no chutes. Horses were
roped and mounted in a corral
and were ridden until they quit
bucking.
Gambling was continuous in
the camps. Cards, but the fav-
orite game was the old shell
game, under which moccasin is
the little shell.
There was much singing and
dancing at night. 1t had been a
hard winter and this was real
celebration.
The costume parade was as
important as the horse parade to
show possessions and pride Of
wealth. Handsome feathers,
bead and shell and elk tooth dec
Grafton on buckskin. These are
the tallest handsomest Indians
in the United States and they
wear their costumes well.
The climax of the celebration
was the sun dance and the medi-
cine lodge held in the circle of
tepees. Streamers of bri G h t
cloth, medicine rattles of raw
hide, sweet grass, sagebrush, etc.
were attached to the medicine
pole.

The wealth of the Blackfeet

The grass was eaten off for Is

Fourth of July occurred the two
big parades-the horse parade
and the costume parade. In the
horse parade the Indian ri d e r
rode in the lead of his outfit, his
family dressed in their best, and
horses, too, all looking their best.
Women and children acted as
outriders. As they passed the
grandstand in close formation, it
was an eighth Of a mile before
the next band came on.

the left wing of Prices Confed-

Goss, who Dragged that no Ind
ian ever lived that could slip up
on him. He took his team and
the running gear of his wagon
and went out to haul poles. Out
on the prairie where there was
no shelter whatever he looked
around and there sat an Indian
on the back end of the gear.
George Bird Grinnell killed a
grizzly bear and wanted to make
it seem as large as possible. So
some willow withes were cut and
inserted in the stretched hide.
The hide split right down the

etc. Older women and m n
wore blankets habitually. Their
heavy braids and the elk's teeth
trimmings on costumes were very
noticeable.
The big celebration of the year
began about July LIST when all
Indians came in and made their
main camp northeast of the
Agency in a circle. There were
no canvas tepees at this time.
All were cowhide or buffalohide
and were variously ornamented.

Private Employment
In District Increases
By 10000 in Year
Star Staff Photo.

Private industry in the District
acquired 10000 new workers in the
fiscal year 1947---an increase of q
per cent over those in the previous
year-it was revealed yesterday In
the annual report of the Minimum
Wage and Industrial Safety Board.
During the past year the private
employment roster rose to $4,000
persons. Despite the increase, now
ever, the number of accidents in
volving injuries and loss of time
fell from 1880 to 1766 per million
man hours worked, according to
the boards report to the Commits
sioners.
The increase in private workers
here was attributed to general cas-
ing of building material shortages
by Fred C. Thomas, director of in
dustrial safety.
The report said minimum wage
inspectors found 1893 women and
minors employed here were due
more than $21 1000 in wage under
payments. In the 2,699 violations
found, IS per cent of the violators
failed to comply with the record
keeping and posting requirements
of the wages and hours law, the
BOARD pointed out.
Minimum wage violation fines to-
falling $2,390 were assessed in IS of
the IS cases taken to court. Nine
persons were convicted out of the
% who were prosecuted for indus
trial safety violations.
Fatal industrial injuries in 1947
were reduced from the 81 reported
in 1916 to 10.
The board said 5,531 industrial
safety inspections and reinspections
were made, and 2,645 notices to
correct violations were issued.
