GLACIER PARK IN 45th YEAR

The average 1855 American who is inclined TO
be histoy-minded may take note Of the fact that
Glacier National Park on Wednesday of last week
had attained its Ash year Of existence Created in
1910 by the Taft Administration, over the years its
name and fame has spread throughout the nation.
In fact there is no part Of the civilized world where
live people given TO an appreciation OF natures BEAU
ties that is not familiar with the great American play
Iand-GIacier National Park.
It is the fourth largest Of the % national parks,
being exceeded in size only by Yellowstone, Mt.
Mckinley and Everglades Dimensions, however,
are not Of utmost significance. What looms most
about Glacier National Park are the qualities that
cannot be captured by words.
When you attempt TO describe if TO one who has
not yet visited il, you do better Job by decIaring-
and thus being honest about it-that 'yoU haven't
the vocabulary TO do it," How often have you said
to such one: YoU must go there and see for your
self. It's TOO big and vast and magnificent to be
described by letters of the al phabet."
Even photography with its wonderful pictorial
story is not equal TO the task. To be fully appreciated
Glacier National Park must be seen with the eye
Through this there is reaction of the spirit. Man
thus realizes his pUniness in the majesty Of things
he, as mortal, cannot ever hope TO duplicate.

asked what had been done as
yet about the steps. The con-
tractor apologized, somewhat
ashamed, for he had not gone
near the home, in fact he had
forgotten all about it.
At the end of the second week
the man called again, and when
the contractor began to apollo
gize the home owner said, "Nev-
er mind, it is all right. l shall
find someone else who has time
to do the work. You may can
eel the request l made of you"
The contractor was more con-
cerned with the interruption than
with losing the job, for the job
was so small it did not bother
him.
But not long after when he
read about the contract for a
large building for an insurance
company having been awarded to
one of his competitors, he was
much disappointed. He had want
ed this job so badly. AS he read
the story the name of the offic-
er responsible for the awarding

But when the contractor look

Dear Sir:
was interested in your
lengthy report of the Indian In
stitute at the University of Mon
tana. 1t seemed to me that you
would like copy of some notes
l took at the University of Min
nesota on April 1924.
In fact, the purpose of my re-
cent visit to Browning was dis
cussion with Blackfeet Tribal of
ficials on the proposed subject
matter of the Minnesota Con-
ference. You will note that in
addition to the Blackfeet coun-
Gil delegates there were tribal
chairmen from six states. The
major part of the conferences
was given by professors of law,
history, and anthropology as well
as by state law officials and rep
reSentatives of the Aberdeen
Area office of the Bureau of In
dian Affairs. We were privileg-
ed to hear treaties and govern
ment policies discussed by for
mer Commissioner of Indian At
fairs William Zimmerman Jr., by
Alexander Lesser of the Associa-
ton on American Indian Affairs,
Inc. Also, we were honored by
an address from Hon. H. NJ.
Jones, director of Indian affairs
for the Canadian government.
My major impressions from
the conference were rather unex-
pected:
l. Relocation gives US a popu-
lation of people who have lost
their Indian identity. We just
have more brown Americans in
our midst-5,OOO in Minneapolis
alone. Maybe this is all right.
Maybe it is what the Indians
want. Does Montana want to lose
tribal life?
2. The Indian who asks for a
fee patent bites off more than
he realizes from the legal point
of view. He may choke on the
bite in the near future.

dian Reorganization Act are the
strongest in the United States.

nitely. For all other tribes, it

Dear SIR
l understand that the Lions
Club, the Town of Browning and
other groups are sponsoring
cleanup week of yards, streets,
business places and other pre-
misses this week. This is splendid.
But how about the street you
and l live on? referring to E
Street,. The bitches have not
been plowed out and cleaned for
years. Last year, to fill the holes
on the surface, we got a load OF
big rocks. Then came the grader,
that pushed the rocks into the
bitches. Every time it rains, the
street is flooded, and there are
lots of rocks for breaking win
dows, all supplied by the city.
How about a truck and prisoners
picking up the rocks from he
bitches so they could be plowed
out by the ditcher, or whatever
is used, and the street would
look a lot neater. Such vol
ume of traffic goes up and down
I this street that it certainly de-
serves attention. Other streets
are just as bad, know.
When l lived in East Glacier
Park, a prominent Browning cit
izen asked me why l did not come
to Browning more often. l told
him the reason was that | twist
ed my ankle every time | came
here, getting up and down the
streets.
People with trees near their
fence should be required to keep
them trimmed, and not let them
grow out over the sidewalks;
they are dangerous to people u.s.
ing the sidewalks. In Cut Bank
if trees are not trimmed, the city
does the job and charges the cost
up to the property Our town
could be just as neat as Cut Bank
with a little care on the part of
city officials and cooperation on
the part of the citizens of the
town.
Some people have a beautiful
well-kept hedge and trees. love
a pretty front yard, and W could
all have one if we wanted to.
Pride is a great thing for any
one to learn and live up to. We
have some very lovely homes in
Browning and lovely churches.
Just a little care and trimming
up to beautify them, if we would
only try to Guido each other;
what a pretty town we could
have. If people would only teach
their children not to jump or
climb over fences into other peO-
pies yards for shortcuts, that
would be big help. l caught a
little girl jumping my fence, and
lighting right in the middle of a
tulip bed just coming up. |
suppose she did not know it was
a flower bed, but she should not
have been jumping fences. If
we all learn to respect the rights
of othrs it would be a big help.
Yours for a lovelier Browning,
MRS. CHAS. J. NIELSEN.

British Weather
2-Week Strike

LONDON, June II R.--'he
British people, showing the same
stubborn streak that licked Hit.
ler's air blitz. appeared today tc
be holding out successfully
against industrial chaos threat
ened by the two-week national
rail strike.
Reports from all over the coun-
try showed that with hnstle and
homespun ingenuity the factory
and Office wheels have been kept
turning at almost full speed.
Workers and business execu-
tives-hitchhiking, and jam
ming aboard emergency trucks
and trains run by skeleton crews
are getting to the job and home
again, usually on time.
Ports Are Tied Up
More threatening than the rail
strike is the walkout in an in
ter-union squabble of 10000 long
shoremen in six key British ports
now in its Goth day. The pileup
at the docks has slowed the flow
of exports upon which this island
Kingdoms very life depends.
Government, national labor
and industrial leaders warned
a "back-to- work movement" on
the railroads and docks must
start soon If the nation is to
head off critical injury.
Railroad union chiefs and gov
ernment negotiators conferred
urgently for the third straight
day. Despite personal interven-
tion of Labor Minister Walter
Monckton, they failed to find a
formula for ending the strike.
Now there isn't a chance for q
settlement before talks are re-
sumed Monday morning.
Compromise Studied
The $1,000 members Of the
Associated Society Of Locomotive
Engineers and Firemen struck
to enforce demands for higher
pay differentials for skilled rail
workers.
The union tonight studied a
compromise offer on differentials
by the British Transport Com
mission, which runs the state
owned railways.
At the onset Of the strike
which knocked out over 80 per
cent of rail traffic and resulted
in a state of emergency being
proclaimed, Prime Minister Eden
appealed to all Britons for a
massive personal effort to meet
the challenge.
