Program Freeing
Indians Under WaV

Two Indian tribes in the Great
Lakes e a have been released

according to Washington re-
lease. They include the Saginaw
.Chippewas of Isabella County,
Michigan, and the Stockbridge-
Munsee tribe in Wisconsin. Each
tribe totals 500 population.
The release from wardship is in
accordance with a tentative pro-
gram presented to t h e Senate
committee on Civil Service in
February, 1947, proposing grad
ual withdrawal of federal control
over Indians.
The Blackfeet Tribe is included
for release in the tentative pro-
gram.
AS explained in the Washington
release, t h e tentative program
calls for early release of about 10
groups, or So. 900 persons, in eight
states.
Included, in addition to the
tribes now released, were the
klamath Indians of Oregon, the
Osages of Oklahoma, the Memo
minees of Wisconsin and Indians
of California.
A second group of 20 ':,jurisdic-
tions"-75, 900 people in IL states

years, after they have been pre-
pared economically a n d socially

Pigs Get Hemophilia

Hemophilia, the disease OF roy.
atty that causes victims to bleed
to death from slight abrasions or
other bodily injury, affects pigs
and dogs as well as human beings.
In dogs and people, it is known to
affect only males. In pigs, how.
ever, both females and males may
be stricken. It is reported only rare
ly in animals, but may be more
prevalent than reports indicate,
due to the inability of owners to
recognize the condition. Hemophilic
animals usually do not live longer
than q few weeks because even
minor injuries cause fatal hemor-
rhages.

Browning High
School Again
Fully Accredited

A communication received last
week by Supt. Douglas Gold of
Browning Schools from the State
High School Supervisor King sets
forth that Browning High School
has been fully accredited by the
State Department of Education
for the year 1949-5O.
This makes the 10Th consecu-
tive year t h t Browning High
School has had full generalization,
although warnings on the matter
of attendance have been received
several times during that period,
according to Supt. Gold.
The State Accrediting officials
have set IS per cent attendance
as the minimum permissible for
a fully accredited hig h school.
When the Browning High School
attendance dropped to 80 and a
fraction per cent last year, local
officials h e | d their breath until
they discovered the reaction of
the accrediting officials.
As long as Browning High
School students persist in main
tanning a very poor attendance
record, the school is in continual
danger of losing its accredited
standing, Supt. Gold points out.
Former Supt. K. w. Bergan, he
said, waged a constant battle on
attendance. The danger is be-
coming more acute and some
drastic steps may be necessary.
Local school authorities are de-
termined that the welfare of all
the students shall be considered.
Accreditation is meaningful to
those who have graduated and
who constantly have need to refer
back to it under that status in
their further educational or bust
ness pursuits, as well as to those
who will graduate in future
years.
1t is anticipated h a t school
authorities this year will heed the
warnings of accrediting agencies
