from their own farming and ranchins
efforts.
also know of other families who
have broken down car, poor clothes.
tiny one or two room shack for a
family of from 4 to Il, and who are
always trying to get few dollars on
lease that is already paid up four or
five years in advance. Yet these Indians
started out with the same amount of
land, same allotment, and lease money
as the Indian families who have nice
homes.
No, the answer to the economy of the
Indian is not in how much he receives
but rather in how can he be taught to
manage his business affairs so he will
have the money for the things that are
of most value to him and his family.
I for one would be delighted to see
the Indian on good firm economic
level It would be good, first of all for
the Indian, then good for his neighbors,
his business associates and his country
1t is my belief that the one person
who can best help the Indian is the
Indian himself. I firmly believe that the
next generation will show great
change in the way the Indian people
live. We are turning out many high
school graduates among Indian chill
dren and portion of them are going
into jobs and schools of higher educa-
ton, and their children will in turn do
the same thing. True there are many
who do not seek. higher education and
better jobs but the number is gradually
being cut. The thought and effort they
are putting into this situation of the
Yellowtail dam seems to show that they
are. planning for the future.
An article in local paper stated
that, according to Bureau representa-
lives, about 1000 acres of the proposed
dam belongs to the Grow Tribe, includ-
ing the actual dam site. Another 10000
acres are privately owned and the rest
Of the $4,000 acres is federal and state
owned.
With all this hubbub about the 1000
acres of Indian lands needed for Vel
owtaiI dam what about the 10000 acres
If privately owned land? We don't hear
much about what they will get for their
and Whether it is owned by individual
indians or white people I do not know.
But actually does it make any differ
.nce?-Mrs. John NobIett, Big Horn
county.

Indians Need More
Than Buffalo Range

WHEN read rne leCLer from MIR. Il
j. Parkinson of Cascade County il
seemed to me that he is far off the
beam in some of his statements in re,
gard to the Grow Indian buffalo herd
and the great value of meat derived
each year from it.
have lived on the reservation since
1920 and believe it was in the 1905
that the herd was started. At least that
is when first heard of it. remember
l was living on Soap Greek at the time
about 20 miles from the buffalo pas
ture. When the herd was first brought
in they had trouble keeping them con-
fined and often animals would be seen
on the cattle ranges in the Soap Creek
area and others.
Since reading Mr.. Parkinson's letter
in the Aug. Is issue of Montana Farmer
Stockman have been asking individ-
uals among the people who are getting
the benefits of ''the source of the meat
supply for their entire population of
about $500 people, and meat is their
principal diet" Mr.. Parkinson further
states, ''It will feed the Crows and their
descendants for generations. 1t is the
only thing that stands between them
and dire poverty, starvation and hui
initiating dependence on charity for ex-
istence.''
find these to be the facts as told to
me by the ones who receive the meat
One party told me that they received
from a quarter to half of a buffalo
per family, depending on the number
in the family Another said, ooh, we
get about 10 pounds apiece, / guess,
and it's all bone. We never see any of
the steaks"
I do not want to get into an argument
on who gets what of the buffalo and
neither do want an argument whether
the Indians should be forced to give up
their land by selling it for the site of
YellowtaiI dam I would like to get in
few figures on the dollar value each
member Of the tribe gets from the
buffalo herd.
There are six districts in the Crow
Tribe: Pryor, Black Lodge, Big Horn,
Reno, Lodge Grass and Wyola. Each
fall a roundup Of animals is staged and.
each group gets ''around Is animals"
as one party told me. That would be
$50 animals for $500 people that Mr..
Parkinson states there are in the Crow
Tribe, or one buffalo to 2311s persons.
Mr.. Parkinson stated that if they
were to rent the land as dam site,
each member would receive about $24
per month. ''This would just about buy
the meat they would be deprived of, =
he states At the figures I have quoted
that would be very expensive meat as
it would amount to 1868 per year for
the % pounds of buffalo meat.
The problem here on the reservation
IS not SO much how much money they
receive for any one thing (and I agree
thew should receive a fair and honest
payment as it is how to teach them
to manage and spend their money to
their own best advantage. know OF !
indian families who drive nice car,
have nice clothes, nice homes and all
ways seem to have money for the things
hey need and want, all of this from
heir allotment money, lease money and
