A request by the Union Oil

Public Debate

the only issue to be discussed at

Batt|efor Oil Leases Continues

Developments IN the oil situa,
ton during the past week have
been devoid of actual achieve,
ments, but many proposals and
counter.proposals have been sug.
gested, most Of them based on
Tribal council negotiations with
the group of Texas and Oklahoma
capitalists attempting to gain con.
troll of the business affairs of the
Blackfeet tribe.
Following the high prices paid
last week by the Union Oil Com
pany and other major oil com,
panies for leases along the
mountain front. many members
of the tribe and others interested
have expressed grave doubt as to
whether the Indians best in
tercsts will be served by turning
over management of their re-.
sources to the outside capitalists.
The lease sale, which nettcd
rather fabulous sums to few of
the alottees in favored spots, and
which involved the payment of
over a million dollars by the
Union Oil Company, and large
sums by representatives of other
major companies. injected new
angle into the thinking Of many
members of the tribe. The fact
that all land in the area belong.
ing to the tribe as a whole has
been withdrawn from the sale
probably cost the tribe a large
sum of ready cash. and this fact is
being pondered by many who re.
sent the long delay in arriving
at a decision, one way or another,
with the Cullen group. The dis.
cussion goes on, and the end is
not yet in sight.
Specific happenings since the
lease sale include a number of
public meetings. at which the adj
Instability of eventually adopting
the Cullen plan has been the
chief topic of discussion.
