IS POPCORN UNAMERIcAN!

Popcorn and peanuts have been
under fire in the United States for
some time. The latest attack is in
the Pacific Northwest, where GER
tain Oregonians have been trying
to legislate them out of movie
houses, as others have done else
where. The crunch and crackle of
protest can be heard right across
the continent.
At a committee hearing on the
bill one state senator distributed
free popcorn to the so spectators,
who made so much noise eating
it that the hearing was all b u t
disrupted. The bill itself was at
tackled as un-American. Feeling
ran high as popcorn ran low.
We are not advocates of pop
communicating, peanut-shelling,
cellophane-crackling, and kindred
disturbances perpetrated under
cover of darkness in crowded
cinemas. We do n o t hold to the
dogmatic laissez-faire position
which says that you can't legis-
late quietness. We are not much
moved by appeals to old Ameri-
can traditions of noisy eating in
public places.
But rather than run the risk of
b e n & accused of un-Ameriean
snobbery we ire willing to run
the risk of being exposed to SUBJ
American slobbery. After all,
anyone can stay away from the
movies who doesn't like the
noisies. Christian Science Mon

Tribal Loan Bill
Continued from first page)

CONTINUED nom flrSt page)
Our people have demonstrated
their ability to make a success Of
the livestock business. In 1918,
we had about 80, 900 head of In
dian owned cattle on our Reserva-
ton. L &C k of credit, combined
with changing Indian Bureau pol
icies. shifting personnel, and
growing complications Of land
status, have prevented our people
from making the best economic
use of our resources. By 1885,
our Indian owned cattle were re-
duced to less than 1000.
Since then, with access to a Re-
volving Credit Fund, we have
built up our cattle total to ap-
proximately $1,000 head. We
need an expanded credit pro-
gram to make full use of our re-
sources. These resources are
probably potentially adequate to
provide our people with a decent
American living standard, which
we do not now have.
In order to make effective use
of these resources we must have
adequate sources Of credit for
livestock expansion. for other
forms of agricultural production,
for the consolidation of economic
land units and for the intensive
development of other reservation
resources. We also need ade-
quate credit for a program of
home-building..s
These things we have been do
ing on a limited scale for the past
decade. We have done enough
to prove our ability to carry such
a program to success. We have
repaid all our tribal debts, with
out any default or delay. Our
income from oil royalties, graz
ing permits, leases and o t h e r
sources. is adequate to give the
United States ample security for
reimbursement of the loan we
now ask.

Gossipers Insult
Rev. Smith And

Slanderous rumors have been
circulated around town that are
insulting to Reverend Smith and
myself.
This rumors has had such f ar
reaching effect as to reach open

are few long tongue malicious
mis-informed persons in town
who have been spreading the cock
and bull story that the Women's
Exchange a n d Reverend Smith
are in cahoots together, that Rev.
erend Smith is receiving clothing
donated for charitable and bazaar
use and selling s u c h raimant to
t h e Women's Exchange. Such
gossip is a damnable lie.
The Women's Exchange re-
ceives clothing from associates
outside Browning and it is neither

merchandise by any under hand
method. If any such gossip mon
gers have the courage, they will
make a public accusation, giving
their names. In which event it
will be my pleasure to listen to
their public apology.
