tribalization,' 7 alienation Of
Indian lands and nefarious
attempts to deprive the Indian
Of "the right to be an Indian. =
Elsewhere in the world
American policy opposes COLI
lectivization Of agriculture. At
home we recognize the indi-
vidual family as the basic So
cial unit. and protect the right
Of the individual to own and
manage property and engage
in competitive enterprise.
The present administration,
whose Bureau of Indian Affairs
is headed by Glenn L. EN-
mons, is under heavy fire from
the organizations and others
named above for thinking in

believing that they don't mean
. what they say.
Chief Justice Warren. for
example. issued last April as
explicit q pronouncement Of
his refusal to run for the
presidency as any man could.
Here is what he said In q
written statement to the press
just after a Gallup poll
showed him high among Re-
publican favorites:
when ! accepted that posi-
ton (of Chief Justice) it was
with the fixed purpose Of
leaving politics permanently
for service on the court. That
is still my purpose. It Is ire
vocable. I viii not change 1t
under any circumstances or

But the Gallup poll taken
since the Presidents illness
and revealed over the week
end shows that Mr.. Warren
would defeat Mr.. hartman.
Evidently these voters either
do not believe the Chief Justice
meant what he said or else
they didn't read what he said.
How in the face Of such
an explicit refusal could any
body trust the word Of Earl
Warren again If he repudiated
what he said? What would the
Democrats say in q campaign

The Air Force sums up its

The Army reports minor difii-

Of its reserve forces by 1860 and
to change the mission Of many
Of It's units.
The Navy and Marines report
no serious problems In their owr

The Air Force said that one
result Of its money troubles Il
that it will not be able to pay

in December. In weight, 25fo were
900 lbs: $40 were 100000 lbs. and

North Central States reported
25Tc more cattle on feed than a

for slaughter are likely to prevent

To the Editor.

To the Editor:
would like to make correction
concerning an article appearing in
the October IA, issue of the Ottawa
County News.
Harmon David Sorg, made the
first cement block in ottawa Coun-
ty, and not Mr.. Russell Bordeau, as
stated
Mr.. Sorg owned and operated a
builders contracting business, and
also stone and cement works in the
building now occupied by the Hab-
litzel hardware store. located at the
foot of Church Street, on the Port
age River in Oak Harbor.
A number Of houses still stand
in that vicinity built of the Sorg
blocks, and the barn on the H. A.
Sorg place west of Oak Harbor, was
the first cement block building con-
structed by him, in the county.
Mr.. Sorg died in 1910, and after
his death Mr.. Louis Sabier acquired
the building and contracting bust
ness, and Mr.. Bordeau, who had
been an employee Of Mr.. Sorg's,
previous to his death, bought the
cement block and stone works from
the widow, Mary Alice Sorg.
