ARRINGToN'S POSITION FILLED

Here is where we have lost ground that might
take years to recover However let's look back just
count experience and press onward It's the fu
ture that counts.
Naturally we talking about the appointment last
week by Gov Leroy Collins of Atty Anthony Horseman
a graduate from the University of Miami to replace
Henry Arlington on the staff of the state attorney.
Since this opening was made for Negro assistant
and so much stress placed the need for Negro
on the staff and believe the need justified during
the short period that Arlington served then why the
change?
Could not our governor find another Negro to fill
this position? the fly in the milk white secretaries
debating to Negro appoint another Negro give him
Negro secretary Now don't think we are asking for
segregation but in this particular case wouldn't mind
having half loaf, instead of none at all.
Did we get square deal in this matter?
The third and final hearing of the Metropolitan Miami
Charter Board was held at the Dade County Auditorium
Thursday evening
The Board gave the following reasons for recon-
mending the county manager form of government for
Miami:
The public service administration of Chicago which
surveyed Dade County government, recommended this
type.
Experiments on a national scale have proven the
countymanager type of government to be more efficient
Authority is clearly divided under this system
the manager handling the administration and the
mission handling policy making
There is more freedom from political obligations.

District Heads Study
Electrical Code Here

The Commissioners today were
considering a decision on what
size electrical installation job
may properly be done here with
out calling in a professional
engineer.
Virtually all witnesses testify
ing at public hearing yesterday
opposed a Building Code Advisory
Committee recommendation that
plans and comutations be signed
by a registered professional en-
gineer If an installation exceeds
$50 kilo-volt- amperes in power
or 500 volts in electrical potential.
Electrical contractors and en-
gineers differ considerably on
where the cutoff point should
be.
The present electrical code
does not provide a clear-cut dis
tinction between the responsible
lities of licensed master electri-
cans and registered electrical en-
gineers in the design and plan
ming Of electrical installations.
Cabell Gwathmey, director of
the city Department of Licenses
and Inspections, said the depart
ment adopted an administrative
guide line in 1851 requiring all
electrical plans for work in
volving a service or feeder of 200
amperes or greater capacity to
be signed by registered profess
sional engineer.
Lesser capacity installations
could be planned and installed
by a master electrician without
the services of a professional
engineer.
He said the license department
feels a clear-cut division point
should be adopted to facilitate
the reviewing of plans and
issuing of permits for electrical
work, and that the advisory COM
mlttee recommendation repre-
sented fair compromise"
Arthur j. Phelan, attorney for
the District Society of Profess
sional Engineers, Inc. argued.
however, that the proposed $50
KVA is not a safe or proper
dividing line between the areas
in which engineering and
mechanical skills can best serve
the public. He said a better
limit would be 200 amperes per
terminal.
He declared that, almost with
out exception. private homes and
even small multi-family dwell
lings require less than 200 am
peres and that seemed to be the
closet natural dividing line be-
tween private use and public
exposure to electrical systems
and equipment.

representing the Electrical Con-
tractors Association, said the

Tribal Secretary Outlines
Views On Disagreement

ers." This is very clear.
Before the council can give
any of its powers to another
body, that body must be com.
posed of, or be open, to all mem.
bers of the Tribe.
Now comes the real question
Can the Council give the power
it has to designate which land
shall be advertised for oil and
gas leases; the power TO say
what terms these leases shall
contain; and the power to accept
or reject all bids on the leases
TO another group not composed
of. or open to, all members of
the Tribe as Section (2) of the
oil agreement referred to herein
proposes TO do? And no one will
tell you that this is not what
this agreement contemplates.
1t will give the operators INC.
Laughlin. ct all the right to de.
tcrmine what Tribal land shall
be advertised for lease, under
what terms it shall be leased,
and whether or not the Tribe
may accept the bids offered for
the leases.
Does the council have the
power to do this?
This is one of the technical
points which feel should have
been cleared up b, fore the coun.
Gil adopted this agreement. This
is the first technical point and
is discussed here with the idea
that this proposed agreement is a
management agreement or an
employment contract.
We now come to the second
principal objection that l have
TO the contract. The contract
provides that the Tribe will re.
ceive l2i: per cent of all leases
made by the operators on behalf
of the Tribe. From any and all
royalty over and above this 1917

first allowed to deduct any
money they spend on operations
authorized by the agreement.
Then from the money remaining
from royalty over and above l2l.
per cent. the operator will be
paid onc.half and the Tribe will
receive onc.half. All this. OF
course. can be done only II the
income from this royalty over

1 I, is my belief that the opcrat.
or as a third party. then actually
gets a royalty interest not pro.

on Tribal land. | further believe
this is in direct violation of Ar.

This is an important fact to
remember as it means that the
Tribal Council is charged with
the responsibility of managing
all economic affairs and enter.
prises of the Blackfect Tribe.
and also with the leasing of Trib.
al land for oil and gas as long
as such leases are made under
terms of a charter issued by tho
Secretary of the Interior.
Section 5 90 2 of the Corpor.
ate Charter Of the Tribe pro.
vidcs. in part, that oil and gas
leases or any leases requiring
substantial Improvements of the
land may be made for longer
periods when authorized by law. ="
Further. Section 5 90 3 pro.
vidcs that mo action shall be
taken by or in behalf of the Tribe
which is in conflic, with rcgula.
tons authorized by section 6 of
the Act of June 10. 1884"
The regulations referred to in
Section 5 % 3 are contained in
25CFR. The principal provisions
of these regulations which We
are concerned with are ID that
Triba! lands may be advertised
for oil and gas leases by the
Secretary of the Interior at the
direction of the Tribal Council:
co. that no leases may be made
on Tribal land unless such land
is first advertised for competitive
bidding: and ~ that no oil and
gas lease shall be effective on
Tribal lands unless and until
bids are made or the land and
accepted by the Tribal Council.
, The Tribal Council. then has
definite powers and responsible.
ties regarding leasing of Tribal
land for oil and gas vested in il
by the Tribal Constitution. the
Tribal Charter. and the rcgula.
tons made under section 6 of
the Indian Reorganization Act.

oil and gas leases on Tribal land.
~. These leases must be made
according 10 the Corporate

leases must be made according
to regulations handed down by
