Health Authorities
On Alert Against
Possible Epidemic

That an epidemic of influenza
or other virus ailments may be
thwarted in Browning, the health
status of children and adults is
being kept under surveillance by
local health authorities.
There was considerable absen-
teeism in Browning public schools
last week because of colds. This
week, however. the attendance is
up, according to Supt. Harry H.
Cleke.
At least one out of every three
adults one contacts this week is
either i'll or has lately recovered
from illness.
As a heath measure for the
time being. visitors are not per.
mitted at the local hospital,
a notice to that effect avine
been posted at the entrance few
days ago.
Versatile weather conditions
during the last three weeks, to
gether with the individuals sus'
ceptibility to infection at this
time of the year when his resist
ance is down, may be attributed
as the greater part of the cause.

Chamber Group
Attends Meeting
AT Cardston

Both Browning and Cardston,
Alta. road enthusiasts pledged
themselves in behalf of an inter-
national highway at dinner ev-
ent given by the Cardston Cham
Der of Commerce at Cardston
last Friday noon.
The local group, representing
the Browning Chamber of Com
merce, included Bob Schubert,
Chamber president; Randy Man
uel, George Pambrun, Alton Lee,
John LoeWen. Don MacRae, C.
Murl Beck and Col. J. E. Hilton.
Accompanying them were Hi
Woodward, west-end county COM
missioner, and Angus Monroe.
The line of discussion conceded
with that of similar past meetings
in recent years. a previous one
being sponsored by the Brown
ing Lions Club at the Yegen Ho-
tel Coffee Shop five years ago.
Mutual benefits. it was pointed
out at last Fridays meeting,
stood to be gained by both Brown
ing and the west end and the
Province of Alberta-not to men,
ton the far-reaching benefits
that would accrue to Montana as
a whole because of lucrative
tourist travel in the long and de-
veloping future.
Basis for this greater outlook
is that tn ere is comparative
probability of the stretch through
Glacier County being taken over
by Montana as segment of its
primary highway sytem.
The road through the reserva-
ton for years has been known
as the Lewis road. having been
somewhat developed by t he
Indian Bureau. 1t extends from
Browning to a point within three
mile of the Canadian border. At
the border 1t would Join with a
road extending to Cardston,
which was built on the belief of
Canadians that encouragement
would be given for adequate de-
velopment of the reservation por-
ton.
Several vital matters that came
up at the meeting pertaining to
the project are off the record for
the present.
A Browning Chamber delega-
ton is to meet with the county
commissioners, probably at the
April session, to discuss a pro-
posal of co n t y participation
based upon precedent stemming
from an early-day Indian treaty.

Constitutional
Amendments
Being Studied

Members of the Bla ckf e
tribe at the present time are CIV
ing consideration and study to
proposed amendments to the Tri-
bal constitution, which were re-
Gently drafted by the Tribal con-
stitutional convention committee
and distributed in mimeograph
form throughout the various dis
tricts of the reservation.
Plan of the Tribal Council is to
+ submit the proposals to the Sec
rotary of the Interior at an early
date so that his designation of
a date for an amendment election
may be all the sooner. However,
approval of such an election must
be the first step.
With the regular biennial cleo
ton being held June II. changes
in the Tribal constitution. if there
are to be any, should be in effect
during the period for filing of
councilmanic candidates..
Among the dominant proposals
is the one providing for a reduc-
tion in the number of Tribal coun-
cilmen. If a change was made,
there would be nine instead of
the present 13-three represent
ing Browning district, two Heart
Butte district. two Seville dis
trict and two Old Agency district.
This reduction, it is explained, is
for the purpose of economy. A
candidate, it is also pro v d d,
unless he or she had resided in
the district to be represented for
six months Immediately preced-
ing his or date of filing.
Quite significant is the propos-
al that the terms of members be
for four years instead Of the
present two years. The terms
would be ''staggered' that
some would be hold-overs. This
change, it is explained. would
seek to always have on the coun-
Gil some "old heads" to safely
pilot the Blackfeet's ship of
state"-in calm or storm, in sun
shine or shadow.
The "stagger" system would
be initiated this way: Candi-
dates at the Tribal election in /
June who received the highest
number of votes -four e them
would get the first four-year
terms. At the 1854 e ect ion
the short-term would cease, !
with successors thereafter be-
Ing elected Tor four years.
Future elections, as now pro-
vided, would be held every two
years on the third Tuesday in
June.
The controversial policy of coun-
cilmen being extended loans from
Class "B" funds (money derived
from oil royalties or so-called
Indians own money! comes
in for the guillotine.
No member of the council,
or their spouse. reads a proposal. I
shall be eligible to receive any
loan from the money having
been appropriated by the council
from Class "B" funds during his
term Of Office, but this shall not
prevent the extension or other
modification of a loan which may
have been granted to a council
man before his election to office. !!

Eradication
b. ]. w. Stafford, D. z. M.

enough is being done to eradicate
brucellosis from our herds. During
1851, according to the figures, IT,
TAB head of cattle were tested re-
vealing "a percent reactors. Ten
years ago 1880 cattle were tested
revealing 3.5 percent reactors. This
would show that the incidence of
the disease is being reduced. Last
year it was reported that 70,827
calves were officially vaccinated
against brucellosis.
If everyone in the state would
vaccinate his replacement heifer
calves for about five years, brucello-
sis would be nearly nonexistent and
could be very easily eradicated. 1t
is estimated that about 100000 calves
should be vaccinated every year.
Another very important means of
combating brucellosis is to be sure
of the additions to your herd. It has
been proven that 90 percent of the
spread of this disease is through adj
ditions of infected animals to clean
herds. If every stockman would
absolutely insist that the cattle
added to his herd were not only
tested free at the time, but origi-
mated from brucelIosis-free herds, it
would soon become fact that there
just wouldn't be room for the di-
sease.
Eradication Up to StocIxmen
The disease will be controlled and
eradicated just as soon and as fast
as all the stockmen want it eradi-
Gated.
The vast majority of the herds
and of the cattle are free from
brucellosis. It just seems inconceiv-
able to me that 2 or 8 percent in
lection should endanger the rest of
the cattle. Why should a very small
percent of infected ranches (where
nothing is done to control the
diseased be a constant threat to the
vast majority of ranches?
In the April / issue of Montana
Farmer Stockman an article en-
titled 'Undulant Fever stresses the
public health aspects of brucellosis.
Because the source of the human in
lection is in our domestic livestock,
public health officials are demand
ing the elimination of brucellosis
from domestic livestock. Time limits
in which to free herds from brucello-
sis are being placed on dairy herds
that sell milk for pasteurization
Embargoes are becoming increasing
ly stringent on cattle from infected
herds. Many national organizations
have banded together to spearhead
national livestock brucellosis con-
troll and eradication programs.
Guard Your Herd
To the vast majority of you who
have brucellosis-free herds do this:
Cd Guard them well to prevent ar
introduction into the herd; ~ Make
sure that all herd additions are
tested brucellosis-free at the time
and come from entire brucellosis-
free herds; go Vaccinate all replace.
ment heifer calves.
To the few who have infected
herds it might be well to remind
you that you will become increas.
