broader field of competition is
brought about by three things
the activity of the Marias Here

fact that the Marias Fair has
qualified for recognition by the
American Breeders Association,
and that the July fair dates fit in

Change Made In School
transportation Contracts
By Last Legislature

Transportation contracts for
the school year 1852 are now
ready. according to Supt. Harry
H. Cloke of Browning pu b i C
schools. They may be signed at
the Office of the school clerk in
the high school building.
The last legislature made one
very important change in the
contracts. he said. The law now
provides that each contract for
individual transportation shall
contain a signed affidavit by the
parent or guardian of the child
as to his place of residence.
For the purpose of this Act
and also for the paying of trans
portation, residence shall pe de-
fined as that place where the ap-
plicant resides with his family
for at least eighty days during
the calendar year when school is
NOT in session.
1t is important that peopl e
eligible to receive transportation
money sign their contracts at the
earliest possible time. Supt. Cloke
stressed.

July 18th Parade
StirS Memories
OF Other Days

W. OSISSI DuyS
Though somewhat of shadow
OF the usual July Fourth parade,
the event this year was eloquent
OF good intentions. At any rate
it summoned happy memories of
other days when circumstances
mado for parades that were more
beautiful and spectacular.
Primarily, the reason for a
more spectacular parade not be-
ing presented was that for the
last several weeks heavy rainfall
discouraged the project-h a d
dampened the ardour of many.
This inspired other ambitions, at
the expense of the parade.
Yet the spectators. who lined
Main Street, were quite happy,
even though they weren't fully
enthraIled.
The Browning Saddle C b.
which sponsored the parad e,
possibly, could have imported a
troupe of Ringing Bros. Circus
elephants to make it more trium-
plant. And it could hav e
pressed into service a few of
those monkeys" standing on
the sidelines criticizing, as a poss-
IDLE, yet doubtful attraction.
Appropriately, the parade was
headed by The Colors, with the
American Legion's official flag
bearer. Reuben Black Boy partici-
pating in Blackfeet Tribal garb.
One Of the most appreciated
participants was the old Black
feet fullblood band. the group be-
ing mounted upon an appropriate
ly decorated truck. 1t was some
thing genuine, something of his
toric value. The performers
played in fidelity to Indian mu-
steamship of long ago.
Aside from two other Blackfeet
! entries, which also dramatized
the old Indian way of life, most
of the parade was of modern vim
tage.
There were scores of horses,
most all of them lively and sleek.
Also, there were several unfor-
givable old "plugs' that appar-
emily ''crawled in under t h e
tent"
They were ridden by cowboys,
cowgirls and little tikes, W h o
were having their big moment"
of their great big day.
One of the riders was Sky Pilot
Smith, a horseman rough a n d
tough-looking-an impelling life
size of the colorful autographed
sheets posted in front of t h e
Park Theatre to advertise some
'two-tisted' poke due at the
talkies.
Two charming little girls
twirled their batons as h e y
marched proudly. Other young
sters rode bicycles.
Browning merchants, utilities
and a restauranteur saw fit to
help along the project as partici-
pants. This was amazing, in
view of the national economic
picture of ghosts and COLLINS.
In such a quandary many an
other merchant in this Land of
the free and home of the brave"
paraded differently.
And once again, as of past July
Fourth celebrations, Kate Thorne
of the Rocky Mountain Inn, en-
tertained with her fine voice and
her ACCORDION as the para d e
passed by in front of Buttreys

Press Publisher
Questions Quest
OF Indian Group

|Of Indian Group
Dan Milestone, Cut B a n k
Pioneer Press publisher, who is
never hesitant in blowing his
top or serving those to whom it
may concern "a piece of his edi-
torial mind" if he feels that cir
cumstances warrant it, in last
weeks issue pictured the quest
of Montana landless Indians as
just another pot of gold" quest
at the foot of the rainbow.
This is his editorial:
OFF and on, over the past sew
eral months, there have b e n
meetings and discussions on the
subject Of the status of the land
less Indians of Montana.
The daily newspapers n a e
briefed these discussions, usually
headed by Gov. Bonner, Mis- S
Mary M. Condor, superintend-
ent of public instruction, Mrs.
B. M. Phillips. senator fro m
Phillips county and some others
connected with the present ad-
ministration,
The basic idea behind h e
movement seems to be request
to the federal government for the
payment of $25, 100000 to vari-
Gus tribes in Montana, condi-
toned on old claims; not pay
ments in additional lands. but
cash payments to the members
of these tribes.
At none of these meetings,
so far as l have been able to as
certain, was there a reason ad-
vanced, based upon historic facts
and data, leaving me to wonder
what was the justification that
supported the move.
Some time ago l had discuss
ion with James Brown. a local
resident, who has made a long
and careful study of Indian his
tory and ethnology and as an
outcome of this discussion he
was asked to write an article for
this newspaper.
In our personal discussion MIR.
Brown said no one would be more
happy than he to see all Montana
Indians realize any just and well
founded claims against the gov
eminent, but after most careful
research and study he doubts
the validity of the claims that are
being advanced, here in Mon
tana and in Washington.
He deplores the activities of
politicians and certain Washing
ton lawyers in pointing to rain
bows of hope, with a pot of gov
eminent gold at each end of the
glitterine arch, and feels that it
is tragic thing to keep dangling
these hopes before gullible men,
bers of the tribes, who are now
making substantial contributions
to foster the movement.
As to the political leaders who
have pranced into the movement
to gather glory and headlines
MIR. Brown seems satisfied that,
in plain language, they do not
know what they are a k n G
about. He said his correspond
ence with one or two of these
leaders convinces him that they
have made little if any b a c k
ground studies of the historic as
poets and as much as admitted
that this was a fact.
Mr.. Brown stands ready to de-
fend his position on the basis of
his long and careful researches.
He says that he has appeared at
one or two meetings and given
an outline of his studies, de-
clared that the spokesman for

HuIeh Work Authorized
In Area Not Held by Arabs
BY the Associated Press

UNITED NATIONS, N. Y, June
.9.-Lt. Gen. -jlliam E. Riley,
chief-of-staff - he United Ma
|tions truce 800 ision organiza-
ton in Palestine, has authorized
Israel to resume work Monday
on the Huleh swamp drainage
project. on lands not belonging
to Arabs. ...
The Huleh area along the
Israeli-Syrian border is the focal
point of series of bloody clashes
between forces of the two coun-
tries. The U. N. Security Council
designated a demilitarized zone
in the trouble territory, ordered
a cease fire, now in effect. and
halted the drainage work.
= Gen. Riley said the chairman
of the Syrian Israeli mixed arm
istice commission had informed
him that an investigation of the
land under dispute disclosed that
certain sections do not belong to
Arabs, and it is on these that the
drainage work will be resumed.
The chairman also is seeking an
agreement whereby Arab land
owners in the district would &C
.cept compensation for their hold
ing or exchange them for other
land in the demilitarized zone.
