To Form Group To
Assist at Drownings

At a meeting of the Oakland Fire
department last Wednesday evening,
steps were taken to form a county
wide organization among fire depart
mcnts for some systematic method of
activity for assistance at drownings
or other emergencies.
The discussion was occasioned by
the recent drowning in Deep Creek
Lake, and the lack of organized effort
over long period of time. Oakland
firemen worked diligently for several
days. Other volunteers have assisted
in the work, but there has been no
continuous and systematic search, as
many members of the department
feel there should be.

Men would be needed who car
operate special equipment, such as
cranes, bulldozers, dump trucks and
welding machines, and volunteers in
the labor force that would help clean
away wreckage and open the streets
to traffic. Help would be recruited
from equipment and material dealers
labor unions, engineering schools, and
other groups which have skilled work
men. tools, and material.
The Rescue Service
Rescue work is mainly an engineer
ing job and requires some basic
knowledge of snoring, rigging, and
building construction. Hence, its
personnel will be drawn from the
building trades and similar Occupa-
tons. Unframed rescue workers
often make bad situation worse
by causing additional damage,
creating more casualties, or becom-
ing casualties themselves. -
Rescue teams will have thel, owl,
specially equipped rescue vehicles, and
will be made up of eight men each
Three teams, working S-hour shifts to
provide aroundthe-clock operation,
will be assigned to each rescue We
hicle, and will be known as a rescue
squad. Ability and willingness to
work as team under emergency con-
ditions, and strength and stamina to
perform that work, are requirements
for the good rescue worker.
Skilled drivers are needed Tor the
Transportation Service. In case Of
enemy attack, people and equipment
would have to be moved carefully and
rapidly: the injured to hospitals,

emergency food and medical supplies
to the stricken area. Women can be
very useful in these operations, and
many of them acted as drivers for the
military and Red Cross in the last
war.
The Transportation Service will
teach people to drive in organized
fleets under emergency condition,
and give them instructions in
simple repair and maintenance work
if necessary. Assembly points will
be set up and a mission will
be assigned to every volunteer and
every official vehicle.
Persons skilled in rail, air, or water
transportation are also needed and
should contact their local civil de-
Tense transportation service.
Will Need Volunteers
Your local civil defense head
quarters will need many volunteers
for staff work. No matter what job you
undertake, it will be vital to your Or
ganization. You are just as important
in small job as in big job.
1t is not necessary to have any
technical knowledge. By volunteering
for staff work you may give some
one with technical skill the oppor-
tunity to serve where he is most
needed.
All the civil defense services you
have been reading about are for the
purpose of protecting lives and prop
erty in the United States. Every one
in every community is fitted for some
job in civil defense. Select one or
more for which you are best qualified
and volunteer NOW.

Indians Liberty
At Stake In
Court Decision

Continued from first page)
CURED on government-held Or
privately-owned lands so long as
they were within the external
boundaries of an Indian reserva-
ton.
The federal law provides that
Indians accused of committing
certain felonies, including bur-
glary, shall be subject to federal
penalties if the offenses occur in
Indian country" In part, it is
defined as all land within res
ervation under the jurisdiction of
the United States government"
The question thus involved is
whether all lands" must be un-
der the jurisdiction of the gov
eminent or whether the ''reser-
walton" shall be under federal
jurisdiction.
Doyle argued last Friday that
since the federal government had
assumed jurisdiction over its
wards charged with certai
crimes it was logical to assume
that the counties of Montana in
which Indian reservations are sit
uated should not be put to the
expense of jury trials in sue
cases.
French replied that at least
some federal district attorneys
had taken the position that re-
sponsibility for such trials was
with the state courts. He warned
that if Montana's supreme court
held otherwise there could devel-
OF a situation in which Indians
charged with major crimes might
escape any penalty because of in
ability of the state and refusal of
federal attorneys to prosecute.
French contended that until the
federal courts rule specific ally on
the question it was the duty of
the state to retain its jurisdic-
ton.
In many respects the case is
similar to that of Peter Tatsey,
who won freedom last spring be-
cause the states appellate court
held he was an Indian ward,
charged with grand larceny oc-
curing within the boundaries of
the Blackfeet Reservation and
thus should have been tried in a
federal court.
The primary difference is that
Tatsey's offense occurred on land
still held under federal control.
The high court unanimously
approved Tatsey's appeal TO r
freedom from state jurisdiction,
and following an application for
rehearing, reaffirlned its original
position by a Al margin.
