Postmaster Worms
Public About
"Spdnish Swindle"

j. M. Astle, postmaster, has
received a communication from
r. j. Paquin, post office inspec-.
tor of Billings, warning the.
public against the Spanish
SWindle'', by which citizens of
the United States have been de-.
frauded through the mails.
The Letter states in part:
9 "Mr. il. Dorf n, Chief Post
Office Inspector is seeking your
cooperation in order that no
patron of your office will be-
come a victim of the Spanish
Swindle". This scheme is a very
old one, but every year some
United States citizens are vic
timized, losing three to four
thousand dollars.
"At present Mexico serves as
the base of operations for the
swindlers. The operators of the
scheme write to persons in the
United States to induce them
through offer of a reward to
come to Mexico with a sum of
money, usually $1,000 to 5000,
to be used in securing release
of certain papsrs which can be
negotiated for a large fortune,
between 100000 to $500, 600.
This money is alleged to be
concealed in the bottom of a
trunk in a custGmhousa in the
United States.
"The writer Of the fraudulent
letters usually represents that
he is a prisoner in Mexico, and
that ne cannot personally claim
the trunk and its contents. He
offers about one-third of the
sum in the trunk to the recip-
lent of the letter. A meeting is
suggested with the person about
to be defrauded at some point
in Mexico, where the victim is
relieved of funds brought with
him, either by fraud or Vio-
lence.
Postmaster Astle asked the
cooperation of the public in
this matter. Anyone receiving
such a letter should notify pos
tai authorities Immediately.

Indian Measure IS
Approved by
Committee

A bill to allow enforcement OF
state criminal laws on Indian
reservations was approved Tues
day by a house subcommittee
in Washington, D. G. This bill,
however, does not apply to anv
Indian tribes having the right
to vote in state and county
elections. ~
The bill, introduced by Rep
resentative Wesley a. DEWart.
of Montana, now goes to the
full public lands committee.
A delegation was sent from
the Crow tribe to appear be-
fore the subcommittee.
Some time was spent Friday
trying to determine official
spokesman for the Crow Indians
as two delegations appeared at
the hearing.
The difference arose when
the two delegations appeared
because Robert YelloWtail, Will
liam Jennings and Mrs. Min
ME r. Williams were chosen by
the Grow tribal council while
Jasper Long, Joe Medicine
| Grow and Donald Deer Nose
were appointed by an execu-
tive committee last year. Both
claimed to be official Spokes-
men for the tribe.
Although differing over their
official status the delegations
were agreed on several bills be-
fore the senate.
Yellowtail stated that while
in Washington he plans to APP
pear before the house appro-
priationS committee to protest
granting any funds for opera
ton of regional offices of the
bureau of Indian affairs.
