ALASKA INDIANS SECURE

WASHINGTON, D. C. -(CNS)-
Through an REA loan of $1,3O3,00O,
the Metlakatla Indian community on
Annette Island reservation at Purple
Lake, Alaska, will build a 2,000-kilo-
watt hydroelectric plant and IS miles
of distribution line
The power will serve about 230 In
dian consumers as we'll as facilities of
the Civil Aeronautics Administrative
near the reservation.
The Metlakatla Community Coop
eratively owns and operates a fish
cannery and sawmill. The cannery,
REA says, used to be leased until
the Indians realized it was wiser to
retain it for themselves. They hired a
manager and proceeded to can the
fish which they catch in the 5000
feet of water beyond the shoreline,
permanently guaranteed to them as
fishing grounds by Congress in 1916.
Their cooperative fishing efforts
gave them an average \income of
$4,000 in 1947, a poor year. Now it
is somewhat higher.

REA POWER HELPS REVIVE
OYSTER INDUSTRY

WASHINGTON, D. C.-(CNS)-
When the Rural Identification Adj
ministration lent money to enable
1900 residents of two isolated islands
in Chesapeake Bay to get electric
power, it started off a chain reaction
of cooperation, the Washington Post
here reports.
In the last four years, coop electric
power has been brought by REA loans
to Tangier and Smith Islands in the
bay. Since then, the islanders have
formed a cooperative to restore the
traditional oyster industry on the is
lands. They now plan oyster process
ing houses, and a crab-processing
plant.

Haiti, Guadalupe, Martinique
Curacao, Trinidad, the Dutch West
Indies, Antigua, the Virgin Islands
and Puerto Rico itself. Accom-
panying them will be exhibits OF
island art and handicraft.
From Haiti will come singers,
dancers and drummers, who will
portray the sensuous voodoo cere-
monies which still are the religion
in the hills Of the Negro repub-
lie. The talent will be offered by
two groups. Haiti Chant and the
National Folklore Group. The
dances they perform will repre-
sent the worship of the gods the
slaves brought with them from
Africa.
It's Folklore Now.
Once Outlawed as a sign Of the
lingering voodoo religion, the
dancing and drumming have only
recently been recognized as. the
earthly folklore of the country.
Less serious but just as color
full will be the Brute Force Steel
Band from Antigua. This aggre-
cation uses instruments made
exclusively from oil drums, empty
cans and choice pieces of junk
yard metal. The music expelled
from such an array of equipment
includes such unsuspected pieces
as Annie Laurie" and BELLS of
st. Mary's." The band also plays
in church. This curious reper-
toire. not to mention its presence
in church. derives from its leader,
a Scottish clergyman who is in
clined toward black suits and q
pince-nez.
The Brute Force Steel Band
will be accompanied and en-
couraged by Antigua's Clown
Dancers, who dress in, masks and
carry huge bull whips. The
clowns, too. have come under the
British spell, and nowadays, fol-
lowing the interception of the
local administrator, they do such
incongruous dances as the Petro-
nella and Eightsome Reel.
