Indian Area Head
Suggests Vote
On YeIIowfaiI Offer

In a letter March 6 to Robert
YelloWtail, chairman of the
Crow Tribal Council, Paul L.
Fickinger area director, Indian
Service office, Billings, express
ed his regret of the action TAX
en- by the council in rejecting
an offer for Yellowtail dam site
and suggested a referendum vote
be taken among the tribe on
the matter of acceptance or re-
lection Of the offer.
The offer, transmitted to the
Tribal Council on February II
by Mr.. Fickinger, on behalf of
the Secretary of Interior, was
one and a half million dollars
for the dam and reservoir site
on the Crow Indian reservation.
The council rejected the offer
by resolution adopted on Feb
ruary %.
Mr.. Fickinger's letter states:
II note that only 10 members
of the Grow Tribal Council were
present at the meeting at which
the resolution was adopted.
This leaves HOO members of
the Grow Tribal Council, who
have a stake in the Tribal
assets, unheard from on the
subject.
do you not feel that this is
of sufficient Importance to the
Crow people that perhaps the
matter should be submitted by
referendum as provided for in
the Crow Constitution, thereby
giving everyone the opportunity
to express himself? Would not
such a procedure also be in
keeping with the tradition as
laid down and practiced by that
great Crow leader, Blackfoot?
"It seems to me that is a
matter that is too important
for a relatively small portion
of the Crow Tribal Council to
decide upon, regardless of
whether the outcome would be
one of accepting the offer OF
rejecting it. I wish you would
give this some further thought"
Many months of painstaking
investigation, survey and re-
search, by the Bureau of Re-
clamation and the Bureau of
Indian affairs, were required
before reaching the conclusions
contained in their respective
reports. I am sorry that the
Crow Tribal Council has taken
the action reflected by its. re-,
solution without any more study
of the offer than it was posi-
BILE to give in the short time
between February II and the
%. :"
Mr.. Fickinger also states in
his letter to YelloWtail that
''the Crow tribe employed Mr..
Barry Dibble, an eminent cleo
trical engineer of this country
to make an independent study
and evaluation and to serve as
technical adviser to the tribe
in theis matter.
ct am informed that Mr..
Dibble submitted his report to
you quite some time ago and
that it apparently is at con-
siderable variance with the Sec
retar's offer. If I have not been
furnished with a copy of Mr..
Dibble's report, consequently I
am unable to evaluate the me-
thods used by him in arriving
at his conclusions.
However, at the same time
I transmitted the S~ecretary's
offer to you, I transmitted a
copy to Mr.. Dibble together
with a copy of our detailed
report so that he might have
an opportunity to review the
report, including the procedures
we used in arriving at the re-
suits, on the assumption that
the Grow people would wish to
secure MI. Dibble's advice after
he had an opportunity to re-
view this cffer."

Why Eds. leave town.

why Eds. leave town.
Th1S reporter was chagrined
to find an error in last weeks
publication which misstated the
date of the coming city election,
but when we found we also had
the wrong month for the school
elections, it was almost too
much.
Just to set the record straight,
municipal elections at Hardin
and Lodge Grass will be held on
Monday, April 2, 1851. School
election in district No. 17-H, and
all other districts of the county
will be held on Saturday, April
7, 1851.
The closing date for filing for
city office is March II.
A mountaineer, on his first
visit to a city of any size, was
fascinated by the asphalt streets.
Scraping his feet on the hard
surface, he remarked to his
boy:
"Well, you can't blame en-
much for building a town here.
The grounds too dern hard to
pillow, anyhow"
Hardin has hard-surfaced
streets, but some of the alleys
aren't so well off. One example
is the alley directly behind the
HT-H.
Along with the normal amount
of business woes this past week,
we have had to spend much
time hopping water from the
floor of the shop building. The
difficulty was due to a combi-
nation of the spring thaw and
the poor condition of the alley,
which is slightly above grade,
thereby preventing proper
drainage of water away from
buildings.
Seth Thompson, street COM
missioner, saved the day for us
by blowing a drain ditch down
to the storm sewer, for which
we are highly appreciative, but
it didn't do much for travel
through the alley.
This particular alley isn't an
isolated case in the city, and
nothing much can be done to
alleviate the situation unless
citizens demand that the alleys
be regarded and oil surfaced.
Surfaced alleys would also
contribute to keeping the streets
cleaner in muddy weather. We
think it would be a good prof.
ect to push.

Rules Governing
Welfare Funds
Are Explained

Unless sons and daughters able
10 do SO are required to take care
OF their parents. the appropria-
ton for the public welfare de-
t pxtment will have to be prac-
sicsiiy doubled in Mississippi.
The amount of money available
always determines the regula-
sfn~s &C that the most needy, those
i'm distress who have nowhere else
fo look for help, will get the bene-
Gt of welfare funds. The schedule
ON this matter was worked out
vith the Federal people after a
good deal Of study. taking into
account funds available and other
necessary things.
AT the present time a single son
saving a mother to support whose
needs according to a budget made
son everybody alike are $4,000 a
month will not be expected to
help his mother unless his gross
income is over sos. month. II
ne is receiving over $95.00 a
9,onth he will be expected to
fHnfribute half of the extra
sn,ount to his mother. For in
The Durant news. (Durant, Miss.) 1882-1985, 1951-02-08

stance, if he is getting Sil5.00 q
month which would be $4,000
over $500, he would be expected
to give his mother $1,000 a month
and the welfare department
would give her the other $4,000.
You can see that this single son
would have to be making $l55 90
month before his mother would
be taken entirely off the old age
payroll.
If the son lived outside the
South, he would not be expected
to give any help unless his sal
airy was over $4,000.
As the family of a son or daugh-
ter increases, of course they will
not be counted on to help until
their income is proportionately
larger. 1t is all worked out on
the same basis relatively as is
the case of the single son with one
parent.

weaken the condition of cattle and
it is going to be necessary for

HOLLYWOOD.

Movietown's Run for the
Roses'-the annual Oscar derby
comes down the home stretch
a week from Thursday night and
it's still a wide-open race, par
ticularly among the fillies.
The Academy Awards-the en-
tertainment worlds Kentucky
Derby-will be dealt out amid
glamorous trappings at the Pan
tages Theater on Hollywood boule-
ward. The contestants are the
subjects of as much touting as
any prize crop of three-year old
nags.
Every one in Hollywood has his
own ideas about who will be
crowned the years movie cham
pions. Here is a consensus of the
current trends, as we'll as some
observations of my own:
Female star performance-ah,
here's the toughie. Seldom has
there been a tighter race in this
division, and it's continuing right
down to the wire. It's largely a
three-f1lly struggle between Gloria
Swanson C"Sunset Boulevard"D
Bette Davis CAll About Eve")
and Judy Holiday c'Born Yester-
day'D.
Sentiment for Gloria.
Miss Swanson may very well
nab the honors. AS the aging
film queen, she gave a striking,
If stylized performance. Her
comeback is perhaps the greatest
in film history, and she will snag
the sentimental vote. which is
considerable.
Many of the academy voters
may plunk down for Miss Davis
because of sentiment and because
of her sheer artistry. The two
time Oscar winner came back
brilliantly in her role as another
over-age actress. The great
popularity of "All About Eve"
might well make her the first star
to win three academy awards.

Oscar Races Heated in Stretch
Dopester Picks Miss Swanson, Fefrer and Eve
As Winners, but Comedies He Could Be Wrong

one Is little easier to chart,
provided the race runs to form.
Jose Ferrer's grandiose "Cyrano
de Bergerac" was one Of the big
gest chunks of acting in years.
He should. if you will pardon the
expression. win by a nose.
! That doesn't mean that the
/ field will not press him. Louis
Calhern created charming por-
trait of Oliver Wendell Holmes,
Ijr., in "The Magnificent Yankee. -
But the film itself does not seem
strong enough to bring him home
a winner.
Holden Is Dangerous.
1 William Holden might qualify
as the dark horse. His able,
convincing work as the screen
writer helped hold Sunset Boule-
ward" together but his role lacked
Ferrer's fireworks.
James Stewart ("Harvey') and
Spencer Tracy ("Father Of the
Bride") figure to be outrun. Both
are former derby winners (Tracy
Itriumphed twice., but they have
been seen in soldier stuff.
Selection: Jose Ferrer.
Best picture-This shapes up as
a runaway for "All About Eve. -"
The intellectual appeal of the film
can't be overlooked and it should
be victorious. 1t can mean an
other double win for director
writer Joseph Mankiewicz, who
won two Oscars last year for "A
Letter to Three Wives"
Sunset Boulevard" is the strong
est competition. It was a fascinat-
ing picture of the home town. but
many local viewers found fault
with it's melodrama. Born Yes
terday' is doubtful. since its main
attribute Is a girl named Judy
Holiday.
Two ut-Distanced.
Scratch King Solomon's Mines
and Father of the Bride" Al
though popular favorites, they are
not the kind of stock that usually
wins the big race.
Selection: "All About Eve"
The supporting races usually
are not easy to predict. However,
Josephine Hull. the scatter
Drained sister in Harvey" ap-
pears destined for the reward.
George Sanders, the acid-tongued
cri' of "All About Eve" appears
to bc a prime favorite in the male
support division.
AS with all form charts, this
one could very easily be upset.
So if you lose any lettuce on the
trace, please don't blame the fore
caster. He has been wrong before.
