these destructive insects thrive
in winter as we'll as in warm

their keep by damage not only

Olney suggests, SPRAY with a

WOLF POINT-Repeal of the
law restricting the sale of intox-
icating liquor to Indians has re-
duced the number of intoxicated
Indians appearing in police court
in Wolf Point, according to Judge
Nels Lund.
Four or five of the old stand
bys have not appeared once since
the law was changed" Judge
Lund said, land the overall pic
ture is much better"
While the number of men
drunks has decreased consider
ably, the Judge explained, the
number of Indian women charg-
ed with intoxication in this court
has increased slightly. This, the
Judge theorized, is due to the wo-
men hanging around the bars be-
ing treated mucch more frequent
ly than the men. The men, on
the other hand, drink only what
they are able to pay for.
The Judge said he did not know
if this was the universal result or
not. He said that it could be that
in other towns police courts were
not finding the result the same
as the experience in Wolf Point.
The early experience with the
sale of liquor to the Indians has
been very satisfactory among the
Assiniboines as far as Wolf Point
is concerned.

luc lOllOWlIlS dTtlCle, SlVlHS
the views of Mr.. John Collier, on
the proposed move of the Federal
government to liquidate the ward
status of American Indians, is of
particular interest at this time in
view of the hearings held here
this week by congressional COM
mittee, and other developments.
Mr.. Collier was Commissioner of
Indian Affairs for IL years, from
1888 until 1945, and probably un-
derstands the whole situation bet
ter than any other living person.
Mr.. Golfers views were ex-
pressed in the following letter,
written in July, to the New York
Times:
passage of a Legislative meas
ure destroying the rights of near
ly all United States Indians ap-
pears imminent. This bill would
make scraps of paper" of our
governments treaties and agree
ments with Indian tribes.
Practically no public attention
has been given this bill, mislead-
ingly called the Indian Emanci-
patton Bill' IS. 1886 and H. R.
1885, sponsored by Senator But
tier and Representative D'Ewart).
Many Indian tribes, the Indian
Rights Association and the Asso-
citation on American Indian At
fairs have protested in vain.
Rather than eliminate the In
dian Bureau, in whole or in part,
as so many past emancipation
bills have proposed to do, H. R..
1895 takes the approach of solv-
ing the Indian problem" by elm
mating the Indians. 1t destroys
for all Indians born after enact
ment, upon reaching 81 years of
age, the guarantees of all treaties
and agreements, all health educa-
ton, welfare, conservation and
other Federal services.
In fact, in Sections 2, 8, 6, and 7
it actually declares that they
shall no longer be Indians, re-
CARELESS of the fact that these
people are and will be Indians in
cultlre and attitude. AS to In
dams who wish now to sever
their Indian connections this
measure establishes elaborate
and costly administrative machin-
cry, subject to court review, in
stead of the existing method
whereby an Indian may cease to
be a tribal member by resigning
from the tribe, simply and with
out cost to the Indian or to the
government.
Obscurely but effectively con-
tanned in the measure is also the
intent and effect of disrupting
the self-help organizations of the
Indians. In addition, H. R. 1885
and Senate 1886 prevent those In
dams now living who wish to re-
main as fully participating men,
bers of an Indian tribe or COM
munity from reaping the full ben
efits of such participation. This
is done by the provision of the
bill which gives the Indian who
has resigned from the tribe prop
erty rights and interests in tribal
affairs, Notwithstanding his COM
petite withdrawal from the tribal
organization.
All the above is to be accom-
pliShed in the face of existing
treaty and trusteeship obligations
of the United States to provide
education, health, conservation
and other services to the Indians.
In effect, it thus represents a
threat to the Government-Indian
cooperation since the beginning
of the Hoover presidency, and
reaching farther back, through a

pointed out, and the low standard
of living, with its resultant moral
and social depravity, did not es-
cape the Commissioners atten-
ton.
Information gathered by the
Congressional committe and the
Commissioner of Indian Affairs
on their special fact-finding mis-
sions, should be of great value to
the general body of lawmakers
when they consider the proposed
bills in the next session of Con-
gress, and may perhaps at least
slow down the big rush to launch
into a new and untried policy of

tons to an under-privileged and
abused race with one fell sWoop,
may and should get a cool recep-
ton. More study and an assem-
bling of all the facts from every
possible source is certainly the
part of wisdom, and should be
adopted as the policy of a great
government that prides itself on
its. record of spending billions of
dollars in helping peoples of un-
developed lands around the
world.
81 . j. 4. -
Judging from the proceedings
at the Congressional hearing in
Browning Wednesday afternoon,
it is quite evident no radical
changes in the governmental pol
icies dealing with the Indian stu
alton on this and other reserva-
tons are to be expected in the
foreseeable future. After all the
furore about the new administra-
tons intention of inaugurating a
brand new policy that would re-
solve most of the troubles of the
government and the Indian peo-
pie, the first formal hearing here
this week gave little indication
that any quick change-over Of
policy will be forthcoming. AS in
the past, every new administra-
ton comes up with some wonder
full ideas on the start, but few
if any material changes result.
Now that nationwide attention
has been focused on the urgent
need for better relationships be-
tween the government and the In
dian people, undoubtedly some
improvement will eventually re-
suit, but the process may be slow,
as it probably should be to avoid
further and possibly more griev-
GUS errors

many Indians seem to be taking
advantage of their new right to
buy liquor.
The New Mexico canvassing
board turned on the official
green light as it certified passage
of a state constitution amend
ment to end the ban on sale of
liquor to Indians.
The Board said the amendment
passed 1910 votes to 1875 in a
September IS special election.
Gallup reporters ran spot
checks Tuesday and found most
bars in town practically deserted.
In the Pennington area, by the
vast reservation and near the
checkerboard area of private,
state and federal land on the
edge of the reservation, it was re-
ported only one Indian asked for
service. The owner of the bar
said he did not serve him because
he's not certain that it's legal.
The Indian liquor amendment
probably was the hardest fought
of IL measures before the cleo
ton. Temperance groups took a
strong stand against it. Indian
groups were equally strong in ia
vor of it.

Navajos say they don't expect any
great increase in Indians liquor
