Perry Wargo Chapter 90, Disabled
American Veterans.
Members of the American Leg
ion Auxiliary made the presenta-
ton of the wreath at the honor
roll dais.
Lest We Forget"
Commander Sperber in brief re-
marks, reminded that Americans
must not, cannot forget the liv-
ing dead-the thousands of veter-
ans who will spend much if no.
all their lives in hospitals. He
added, II am not in accord with
the idea of setting aside one day
each year to remember our war-
stricken buddies-we should make
every day a fitting memorial day
by seeking to help those men in
every way we can through the var.
ious organizations which are de
dicated to their welfare"
In the parade this year were
two Spanish American War veter.
ans, Capt. Tom Heating and Fred
H. Dewitt. There were also mum
ber of Gold Star Mothers in at
tendance at the ceremonies.
Music was supplied by the Port
Clinton High School Band. Many

Indian Problems
Are Discussed
In Washington


A wide range of subjects was
discussed by IL Indian consult
ants and Department of Inter
ior officials as a tWo-day con-
ference held in Washington
last week.
The session was the second
called by Secretary of Interior
Oscar L. Chapman this summer
in which valuable information
was received from the consult
ants on problems directly af-
fecting the Indian population
and their relations with the
Department of Interior.
Principal discussions centered
around problems associated with
Indian lands and reservations,
where regulations, treaties and
laws have complicated the land
problem for many years. The
rights of land tenancy, the
problems of land heirship, the
right to purchase tribal land,
and the possibility of the tribe
becoming a land corporation,
were some of the subjects dis
cusSed. Possible reduction of
Indian service supervision of
tribal land and funds was eX-
plored.
Resource development and the
economic welfare of individuals
and the tribe were directly as
ISOLATED with the land prob
lens. In some areas, population
growth has strained the eco
nomic productivity of the re-
source base. Land and water,
and in some instances forests,
minerals and oil, are the In
dams principal resources.
On over-populated reServa-
tionS, off-reServation employ
ment offers a partial solution,
according to the conSultantS.
It was stressed that such en-
ployment requires vocational
training, the proper placement
of the worker and continuing
efforts to fit him into the COM
munity in which he will work.
ConSultants believed that job
diSSatiSfactionS in some cases
came, not from the job, but
from the new environment, the
lack of normal home life,
friends, and religious and social
connections.
Health, education, law and
order, roads, agricultural ex-
tension and Indian credit were
discussed as they contribute to
the future development and
economy of the tribes. In some
instances the responsibility for
these community services have
been assumed by the states in
varying degrees for Indians.
The possibility of establishing
small industries in reservation
areas was discussed as holding
economic hope for over-popu-
lated land areas.
Among the conSultants at the
Washington meeting was Jasper
Long of st. Xavier, represent
ing the Crow Indian tribe.
