chased livestock which the In
dian owner has not yet paid for
Federal consent, but this is not
a discriminatory rule.
A long period of racial dis
elimination has thus been
brought to an end. The success
full conclusion of this campaign
for equal rights should lead In
dians throughout the country to
ask two questions:
What did we do to bring about
this victory, and what can we do
to safeguard this victory?
In weighing the first question
it will be well to remember that
the two twin bills that President
Eisenhower signed on August Is,
1858, were introduced by Con-
grcssmen Patten, Of Arizona, and
Congressman D'Ewart, of Mon
tana, at the request of the inter-
tribal councils of both these
states. Senate sponsorship for
bills was provided in the 82nd
and Bird Congress by Senators
Murray and Ecton, of Montana,
and Goldwater and Hayden, of
Arizona. Both bills now signed
originally drafted in this office,
at the request of Clarence Wes-
low chairman of tho tr;.<,,, T.,
tcr-tribal Council, and the late
Thomtas Main, Chairman of the
Montana lnter-Policy board. The
bills were both opposed by Com
missioner Dillon S. Myer and the
Interior Department when first
introduced in 1852 Nothwith-
standing this Indian Bureau op-
position, a number of indcpend-
ent-minded Indian tribal councils
continued to urge the enactment
of these bills. Among these in
dependent TRIBAL councils, lead
ershlp was taken by San Carlos
Apache. Blackfcct. Hualapai, La
guna. and Oglala Sioux. The AS
sociation of Indian Affairs and
various other civic and religious
groups organized in the CO-ordi-
mating committc on Indian At
fairs and helped to secure a sym
pathetic hearing for these repeal
bills. Many congressman were
surprised to learn that the var
ious religious and civic groups in
tcrcsted in Indian Affairs either
definitely favored the repeal bills
or at least offered no objection

New Indian Laws
Exclaimed in Detail

Discriminatory Laws Repealed
An extremely interesting and
Informative communication, clar-
flying the provisions of recent
Federal enactments designed to
end century-old discriminatory
rgulations in the governments
program of dealing with Indians,
both as individuals and their rep
resentatives throug various trib-
al organizations, was received
here this week by the Blackfeet
Tribal Coucil.
The communication was from
Felix S. Cohen, general counsel
for the Indian organizations, at
Washington, D. C. The letter
was in part as follows:
"On August Is, 1858, the long
Indian campaign to repeal dis
criminatory Federal statu S
came to end in victory. Two bills
which became laws on that day.
with President Eisenhower's sig
nature, repeal the various acts of
Congress which have made it it,
legal until now to sell liquor to
Indians off the reservation and
for Indians to buy or sell ammu-
milton, livestock and various 9TH
er things that non-Indians are
free to buy or sell as they please,
and to allow the tribes to control
the use, sale and purchase of H.
quor on the reservations.
Hereafter, Indians off the res
crvation will be treated like any
other persons, so far as Federal
law is concerned. Within the
reservations, the tribes may now
abolish the Federal liquor laws
if they adopt ordinances which
are certified by the Secretary of
the Interior and published in the
Federal Register. Until the
tribes pass ordinances on liquor
the Federal law will continue to
apply within the reservations. If
the tribes wish to do SO, they can
retain present Federal restric-
tons, or they can retain certain
restrictions, such as those dealing
with wine and beer, or they can
set up a license system under
which sales of liquor would be
allowed only at such times and
places and in such quantities as
would be consistent with good or.
der, and those who abused the
privilege to them and made pub
lie nuisances of themselves might
be denied the privilege of pur-
chasing liquor. 1t is important
for the tribes to realize that an
act within a reservation which is
illegal under present Federal In
dian liquor laws remains illegal
under those laws and subject to
prosecution unless both the state
law and tribal ordinance permit
such act.
With respect to other commod-
tiles than liquor, any tribe that
maintains its own law and order
code will be able to adopt its own
ordinances with respect to the
purchase Or sale of ammunition
or lndian-owned live stock, if it
wishes to do so. Apart from such
ordinancese adopted by the In
dian tribes themselves, Indians
VIII be able to buy and sell any
personal property as freely as
hon-lndians may do. No Federal
prohibition whatever remains on
the sale or purchase of hunting
articles. cooking utinsils, clothing
and ammunition. Federally pur-

Speakers Question
School Boards S Work

A suggestion that the District
Board of Education has not been
functioning at its greatest effec-
tiveness was made last night on
a broadcast over Station WWDC.
Speakers on this topic were
Mrs. Leon Yochelson, chairman
of the Education Committee of
the District League of Women
Voters, and Mrs. Wilson Har-
wood. another member of that
committee.
They pointed out this may be
so because the school board has
been involved in administrative
detail. which should be left to
the superintendent of schools.
The question of appointing
school board members through
the judges of the U. S. District
Court for the District of Colum-
bia came into the discussion,
The situation was contrasted
with other communities in which
school board members are elected
by the public either directly or
indirectly.
Another speaker was j. c.
Turner of the AFL and a mem
ber of the Citizens Advisory
Council.
He pointed out that home rule
for the District has received the
strong support of the AFL.
Mrs. George Malloy of the
League of Women Voters was

Generals Blame Lack
Of fAmmunition on
Defense Secretaries
By John A. Giles

Army generals today blamed
ammunition shortages on direc-
tives Of former Secretaries OF
Defense.
They said a directive from
Secretary of Defense George c.
Marshall on September q,
l95O-four months after the
start of the war-stated that the
military chiefs should assume
that combat operations in Ko-
rea will be concluded by June.
1851"
Senator Byrd, Democrat, OF
Virginia, declared angrily that
the policy virtually amounted to
a showdown order.
Influenced All Budgets, He Says.
The Senator's reaction came
after 1t. Gen. George H. Decker,
Army controller, told a Senate
Armed Services subcommittee
that each budget since the war
began had been prepared on
the basis that the war would be
over by the following June 30.
He added that Secretary Of De-
fense Wilson has now removed
the restriction.
Senator Byrd insisted such
directives amounted, in effect, to
policy determining the con-
duct of the war and Gen. Decker
said it played a major part in
the ammunition shortage.
There was no excuse whatSo-
ever to say that the war would
end on a certain date after the
Chinese Communists came in,"
Senator Byrd declared.
Gen. Decker said similar
budget instructions came from
Robert A: Lovett while he was
Secretary of Defense.
Gen. Decker said he did not
know how "far back" the re-
sponSibility for such directives
went, but that it possibly went
to former President Truman.
Byrd Implies Directive.
IF you say the war will end
on a certain date it is more or
less q directive not to proceed
with procurement. and procure
ment is vital to fighting a war"
said Senator Byrd. isn't that
true?"
1T certainly is" Gen. Decker
replied.
