Better Future
For Indians
Off Reservation

Washington-D'Arcy McNick-
lie, Oxford educated Flathead In
dian from Montana, says the only
future o r thousands of Indians
is to leave their reservations.
A system like that used after
World war 2 for relocating l25, :
600 Japanese-Americans might
distribute Indians satisfactorily
among the white population, he
says.
But he suggests t h e reserva-
tions themselves must be ke p t
intact. 1.-The n a t o is honor
bound in that regard" says Nc
Nickle, who is assistant commiss-
ioner of Indian affairs.
In an address h e r e this week
before fellow alumni of Montana
State university, McNickle said
there will be a new drive in the
coming congress to axe land
away from the nations 100000
Indians.
"Such legislation, conceived in
good intentions, may completely
wreck this country's policy of re-
speeding Indian ownership and
paying for W h we take" he
said.
The federal government paid
about $500, 900, 900 for the land
it took from the Indians, and
what is left is not a gift but In
dams rig h t, guaranteed by
treaties" he declared.
McNickle urged t h a t Indian
reservations be retained as geo.
graphical and political subdivis-
ions of the states, but that move
ment out of the reservations be
encouraged because none has ade-
uuate resources.

Early Blackfeet
Indian Praised For
Perfect Physique

The Blackfeet Indian of CEN
fury ago was an outstanding
specimen of biologic man, ac-
cording to description given by
Carl Bodmar, celebrated German
portrait artist of the 18th GEN.
fury.
Bodmar. rated by Winol d
Reiss, one of the several out
standing ,raitists of this gen.
GRAFTON, as probably the greatest
artist of his time, described the
Blackfeet Indian as being tall
and erct, athletic, courageous
and with long black flowing
hair"
Bodmar, Reiss said, was a staff
artist of Count Wildt, German
research scientist. who in his
American trip nearly a century
ago spent considerable time at
Fit. Benton in his study of the
anthropology of the American
Indian.
Bodmar's portrait of the then
Blackfeet Chief. Back Fat. was
a gorgeous portrayal, the ulti-
mate of perfection in authentic
color and its accompaniment of
varied artistry, Reiss said.
Reiss, whose portraits of the
Blackfeet Indian were shown by
him in 1888 in Vienna, Budapest,
Berlin, Weimar, Munich. Stock
holm, Paris and London before
enthused art lovers, said that
Europeans have had great adj
miration for the genuine Ameri-
can Indian, appreciate him as a
child of ture. resourceful,
rightfulIy combatative as a neces-
sity for his physical survival.
Reiss. who studied portraiture
at the Royal Art Academy at
Munich when youth, has de-
voted 80 years to painting the
Blackfeet l d a n, making his
first trip to this section in 1919.
Other trips were in 1927, 1928.
1929, 1886. 1886, 1887, l943 and
this year.
Reiss following a five weeks
stay here recently left for Lake
Tahoe, California for a visit with
his brother Hans. He was accom-
panied by Carl Link, celebrated
portraitist and landscapist, who
came with him from New York
City to enjoy h S first western
vacation in several years. Follow
ing their visit at L a k e Tahoe
they will return to New York
City, where they have made their
home for many years.

Glacier County
In Democratic
Fold AT Election

Glacier County's aggregate of
vote S at the general election
tuesday, representing the will of
people of 20 precincts, went over
whelmingly democratic in prac-
tlcall all of the contests.
On the basis of votes cast in
several of the more heated con-
tests, aggregates ranged up to a
high of 1851, which was t h a t
cast for t h e presidential candi-
dates, Truman, democrat, and
Dewey, republican.
Of several un ty contests,
Aronson, seeking reelection as
state senator on the republican
ticket and opposed by McCabe,
democrat, was the only party
victor. He won over his rival by
the narrow margin of 26 votes.
Aronson received l,763 to his
opponents 1,736.
A regrettable circumstance,
which developed from a vote
solicitation letter, whose author
was a Protestant pastor of Cut
Bank, may have h a d consider
able to do with Aronson's slim
majority. However, Aronson's
majority over the same opponent
four years ago when they contest
ed for the same Office. was not a
great deal larger than the one of
Tuesdays election.
With this years election senti-
ment b e i n G of practically the

Gratis in Glacier County may be
attributed in great part to (which

Hope for Solid Footing.
One cautious opinion in Wash
ington was that wheat and the
other commodities, along with
stocks, might drop farther but soon
find solid footing.
This would tend to cool of the
potentially hottest issue OF the
presidential election campaign
High prices.
Each party has been blaming the
other for the high cost Of living, but
the Republicans seem likely to gain
more than the Democrats If there
is a moderate price rollback.
President Truman would be de-
prived of a key argument-that he
told Congress what it should do to
bring prices down, but Congress
under Republican leadership
wouldn't do it.
And the G. o. p. leadership could
crow that it was right all along in
rejecting price controls-if, that is
prices come down without controls

Campaign Off to Good Start.
Meanwhile, the Government re-

cut spending for scarce foods Is on
to q running start.
The Agriculture Department said
O review of market trends since the
first Of the year shows widespread
resistance by housewives to the high
price of butter and choice meat cuts.
Demand for meat in some areas,
the report said, has turned slug
gish." Consumers are showing more
interest in cow and chuck beef, veal
and lamb, less in steaks and roasts
from top grade steers.
In the dairy markets the demand
for butter fell off more sharply than
usual after the year-end holidays,
the department found. 1t said high
prices were a factor.
Secretary of Agriculture Anderson
said yesterday that self-rationing of
this kind is one way to put the
brakes on imitation Of food prices.
1.-THE high cost of living is so
serious that we cannot afford to do
nothing while waiting for legislation
to deal with the problem" Mr..
Anderson declared.

CHICAGO, Feb. 6.-The most i'm
portant thing to- understand about
the grain market break is that y Is
not a brief sideshow. 1t has been
going on for IN weeks. Only since
Wednesday has the retreat deterio-
rated into rout.
Most grains reached their highs
on January Is. In the case of corn
and oats prices that day were at
record peaks. That was Friday.
The following day a slight slump
developed.
During the next week-the week
ended January 24-the market eased
but there was no spectacular drop.
Wheat fell about Z cents. corn 5
cents and oats cents for the week.
Last week the decline accelerated.
More important, 1t was noted that
every time the market attempted to
rally it ran into increased selling.
Prices then slumped again, setting
series of new lows. Corn and oats
were weakest, corn losing as much
as Is cents for the week in the May
contract.
Hedging in Cash Corn.
| The current week started with a
slight decline on Monday. But the
next day corn again developed in
dependent weakness. dropping 3&
to 6% cents a bushel.
The weakness in corn was dis
turbing. It had been the strongest
grain for the last few months. Now.
commission houses reported some
selling of corn futures was coming
from the country dealers and feed
manufacturers who held cash corn
Why?
It was reasoned these interests
were hedging the cash corn they
held-that is, selling futures in case
there should be any price decline
They had not done that for more
than q year. They had held cash
corn unhedged, certain they need
not worry about q price drop.
The fact these interests were
hedging indicated their customers
were backing away from prices al
which cash corn was being offered
as we'll as prices of various poultry
and livestock feed mixtures using
corn. Here, at long last, was con-
sumner resistance.
On Wednesday grains opened
slightly lower. Within 10 minutes
pronounced weakness developed
Then, around 1915 am, came the
deluge.
A roar arose from corn brokers
Offering to sell. Prices plunged.
Immediately, selling expanded in
wheat and oats. The activity was
feverish.
In about Is minutes, grains had
dropped the limits permitted in a
single session-10 cents in wheat,
cents in corn, cents in oats.
To trained market observers,
those Is minutes were extremely
significant. True, prices had brok-
en- the limits before, and they had
recovered and gone higher, but this
time the situation was different.
Why?
This time, the limit break had
