"DOuble-Check" Double Crosses
 "Numbers'' Plot

WASHINGTON, PA)-Newspa- per habit of double-checking sources of information thwarted what U. s. treasury officials sus- pect was an attempt to make a killing in the numbers" game by rigging published figures on the departments cash balance.
 Each day, the treasury issues a statement of it's financial condi- ton. The statement, besides it's value to persons interested in gov ernment finance, is eagerly await ed by numbers" players because in many such games, the payoff hinges on figures shown in the cash balance.
 A few minutes after the state ment was issued recently, man called news services, identified himself as a treasury. department public relations official and said there was a misprint in the days figures.
 The neWspapermen doub e checked, found no employee in the division by the name given and learned there had been no mis- print.

Cold Weather Test To Be Staged In Alaska

WINNIPEG, (P) - The biggest cold weather test involving Cana dian and United States troops and equipment yet to be staged in the Churchill area will take place next winter. pr. Paul A. Siple of the United States war department said here last night.
 Described by American army officers accompanying him as the foremost Arctic expert in the United States, pr. Siple added in an interview that the experiments probably would take in more than 300 American troops and a cor respondingly higher number of Canadian service personnel.
 Dr. Siple and army associates paused here overnight on their way to Churchill for a brief in- spection of facilities there. From Churchill they will proceed to Fairbanks, where winterization tests are also planned.

 Chicago Over Negro Tenant

CHICAGO, (P)-A crowd esti- mated by police at almost 5000 dispersed early Saturday from the vicinity of a new south side hous- ing project after 84 persons were arrested and charged with disor- derly conduct in protesting the ad- mission there of Negro tenants.
 At the height of the disturbance last night, stones were thrown through windows of the buildings and street cars in nearby streets. Street lights were broken and one policeman was struck by a brick thrown from the crowd but he was not injured.
 At one time Friday night, 1000 policemen were at the scene.
 The housing project was opened to tenancy Tuesday.
 Forty families of white veterans were admitted to tenancies in the project along with seven Negro families.

Dutch Press
 Indonesians In North And West

BATAVIA, Jav. CP)-The Indo- ncSian Republican army said Dutch forces put new pressure to- day on the northern and western approaches to central Java which the IndonesianS hold.
 Dutch army headquarters said the Republicans broke into the Madoera Island capital of Fame kasan Sunday and were driven off during sharp street fighting. The island war officially was stopped earlier this month Con paper at least by a cease-fire order urged by the United Nations security council.
 The Republicans said the Dutch attacked Poering, on the south Java coast 62 miles west of Jag jakarta, the Indonesian cap ital. The communique reported To- cal Dutch attacks against six north central front villages be- tween Salatiga and Ambarawa about 37 miles north of Jogjakar- ta.
 The Indonesian Republic yes terday announced that it had ac- cepted Hast chance" offer of the United States good offices in set ting the h-Indonesian con- flict, but emphasized that this ac- ton did not supersede an obliga- tion to comply with any U. N. security council decisions in h. donesia.

HEARING ON RESERVA- TION FOR SHUNGNAK NATIVE TRIBE
Continued From Page One

N>SiikAAibSd T VIII oSS OAiC to the proposition as it was un- American and against the Terri torial laws as we'll as the mining laws of the U. s. Government.
 Garnet Martin, representative of the Fish and Wildlife Service stated that his department as a whole was opposed to the deal. He stated that the proposition is un- just and unfair to the white set tiers and miners who pay the taxes, etc. Either the natives are wards of the government or are equal to the whites. They cannot be both
 Upon question MT. Edelstein stated that the natives may have the reservation by majority vote of native residents of the Shun- gnak district with the approval of the Secretory of the Interior.
 MT. Flakne further explained that the natives, or rather the In- terior department, may lease the mining property if they desire to a company or companies.
 A native woman from Koyok, the only native present, gave wit ness that the petition asking for the reservation was circulated by the ANS teacher in that area, a MT. Marvin Warblow, who told the natives, she stated, that they would get many good things and easy living on the reservation She also was opposed to the res ervation.
 Jack Dowd, representing the American Legion, and who was commissioner at Kotzebue for many years, repeated many of the arguments already mentioned and added that it looked like the Shungnak natives could fish and hunt at Kotzebue, Kivalina, etc, where he desired, but his land would be kept just for Sungnak. This could only cause hard feel ings by its injustice. It is his be- lief that equal rights should work both ways, and it looks like the white man is now in the back seat and needs more help than the na- tive.
 The meeting was adjourned with the information that further pro- tests could be submitted in writ ing to the Secretary of Interior at Washington, D. C., before Oct. l.

Opponents of new school build
ings in the district need a new
stock of arguments.
Their chief point that building
costs will be lower later on is an
impractical dream and won't give
children schooling opportunity.
Some folks still forget that the
county never did get back to those
good old days of 1913 when $25
a week supported family, which
by the way didn't have an auto
mobile, radio or electric refriger-
ator. This country paying for the
cost of two wars and preventing
of third has about as much
chance Of returning to 1889 price
levels as it has to float back to
those in-a-dream days Of 1913.
A lot Of money is involved In
the 1854 each for four-room
schools at Coram, Martin City and
Bolton, and the $91,73O for the
high school addition. But the Hun
cry Horse dam will be half COM
pleted before there is a substan-
tial decrease in building costs in
this district. Carpenters now get

and it is more apt to go up than

Another point is that temporary
wooden additions and structures
should be erected instead of sub
stantial buildings. This point of
view has merit, except that even
taxpayer shacks cost money. and
under today's price levels cheap
materials are more overpriced
than 'the good stuff"
It is up to the people of this
district to provide school build
ings for most Of the tripled school
enrollments this area will have.
The prime contractor will likely
build school; the government
will probably not.
