ANNUAL SCHOOL ELECTION
TO BE HELD HERE APRIL 3

1t is only at the local level
that the taxpayer has much to
say about what he will pay for
governmental services. The Fed.
cral government takes its share
without first soliciting the point
of view of the man who pays.
State taxes are likewise set with.
out asking the individuals atti.
tudes. Only at the municipal level
does the citizen get his chance
to say yes" or no" to a re.
quest for additional tax money.
Public schools throughout the
land are soundly administered
with weather eye always on
cost. Schools have actually been
unwisely economical in cutting
costs at the expense of sound
instruction. Browning Public
Schools since their inception have
hewed to limited budget. and
in the past few years taxes of
schools have been reduced while
services have increased The new
Browning High School which
ranks with the finest in the state
will undoubtedly require more
funds Two buildings obviously
cost more than one to operate
and maintain For an additional
four mills on the high school dis.
trict our new school can reach
a maximum in educational advan.
tagcS for our students. With the
additional units of taxable land
there is a very real possibility
that the levy required will be
less than four mills. The amour,
requested is small indeed when
compared with the 30 mill extra
lcvicS voted in several districts
in the State of Montana to sup.
port and sustain high schools.
The law reads that qualified
electors are those residing within
the district who are taxpayers
and whose names appear upon
the last completed assessment
rolls of the county"

the Blackfcct Tribe at a series
of important meetings and hear
ings in Washington, y. C., re.
turned home the last of the week.
and brought back a rather Opt
mistic report of their activities
at the nations capital.
\ number of matters of vital
importance to the Indian people
of this reservation were consid.
cred. consisting of congressional
hearings on a number of bills
now pending before the congress
concerning the interests of In.
dian people on all reservations;
a hearing before the Indian Bur.
eau on policies concerning edu.
cational assistance and support
of schools in which Indian PEG.
pie are participants. and the
much-discasscd proposal of I.u.
Glen Cullen and associates who
have been negotiating for sever.
al weeks with the Blackfcct Tri.
bal Council and the Indian Bur.
eau to take over certain inter-
csts on this reservation and the
general development of the re.
sources Of this area.
The Cullen Negotiations
Perhaps of most interest local.
ly is the Cullen negotiations, and
on this situation the delegation
brought back n rather incOnclu.
Sivc report.
Numerous meetings with Gull.
en- and his attorneys. and attor.
neys for the Tribe and advisers
in Washington. were held, but no
definite proposals have as yet
been made by Cullen. and con-
scquently no action on his offer
has or can be taken until the
offer is submitted in definite
form.
As a result Of the Washington
negotiations. the matter of draw
ing up a contract containing just
what Cullen proposes to do.
which might be acceptable to the
members of the Tribe. was left
in the hands Of attorneys for
both Cullen and the Tribe.
II was agreed that this propos.
al. when finally drafted. would
be sent to Tribal Council Off.
cials here for study. and either
acceptance or rejection. If the
offer is approved by the Council.
then il will be submitted to the
members oil the Tribe for final
action. In no ease. Council mem.

in any way binding on the par,
Of the Tribe be taken until there
Is ample time for discussion and
study of tho program by mem.
bcrS of the Tribe. and then il
will have To be submitted to the
members al n special election for
their approval or rejection.
Individual members of the re-.
turning delegation do not appear
too optimistic over the proceed.

whole matter is now up to Gull.
