followup to numerous hearings
held on the issue both here and
in California since the filing of
the suit in 1913.
All Indians in the State as
individuals. and some of the
tribes separately, are named as
plaintiffs.
Since time immemorial, say
the Indians, their ancestors
have lived in the valleys and
mountains of California and
hunted and fished in its forests
and streams. A hundred years
ago treaties were negotiated,
but Congress failed to ratify
them. Some legislators felt
then that land concessions to
the Indians were too generous.
While no dollars and cents
figure is specified in the suit,
claims in such cases normally
are based on the value of the
land prior to its settlement by
the white man, Mr.. Witt said.
In some suits this has been
figured to 40 to rs cents per

checking program
BY JOHN A. GILES

Defense Secretary Wilson
has continued his ban on the
letting of military contracts
which had been scheduled to
be awarded in June pending
completion of his review of
armed forces buying plans.
At the time the ban became
known in late May, Pentagon
spokesman said it, was only a
temporary delay" and indi-
Gated the military would be
given a go-ahead this month.
The specific contracts-total-
ling $500 million in June-now
will not be let until mid-Au-
gust, if ever.
An authoritative source ex-
planned today that the $500
million now will become an I'M
identifiable part of the bulk
funds in the fiscal 1858 appro-
priations which have been
passed by the House. The Sen
ate is not expected to get
around to that measure until
1t has disposed of civil rights
legislation. The bill totals 1897
billion.
The new fiscal year began
July l and Congress passed a
resolution allowing the defense
establishment to operate at the
same level as last year until
passage of new appropriations.
However, this does not affect
the June contracts set aside by
Mr.. Wilson. He took the action
because defense spending had
topped expectations.
One-half of the slash in
authority to make new con-
tracts in June was allotted the
Air Force. The cutbacks came

Also. he emphasized, the test

larly at high altitude.

My sister thinks ! should

that if I had taken my time,

The boy Karen wants to marry
is too young. He is not ready to
undertake the responsibilities of
a family. feel that. hard as II
is. Karen should just try to stick
1t out at home until she can
make a better marriage.
THE COUNCILS VIEW
Karen is very fortunate In
having a sister who can under
stand and sympathize with her
situation. yet has the experience
to be able to guide her. Her
sisters example should be enough
to tell her that marriage for the
purpose Of getting away from
home is not likely to work out
very well. 1t can be case Of
going from the frying pan into
the fire.
Nevertheless. Karen does not
need to suffer at home.
A much better solution for
Karen would be to select a ca
reer. like nursing. that enables
her to live away from home. to
develop a useful skill and broaden
her horizons,
II nursing does not appeal to
her. she might consider joining
one Of the women's branches OF
the armed forces. Here. too, she
will expand her contacts and
her view of life and will be able
to live away from home under
a certain amount Of adult guild
ance and protection.

One out of every four persons
who work are covered by some
form of private pension plan. in
addition to Social Security.
But, if my letters are any in
dication. few Of them know much
about the plans-at least until
they're right on the brink OF
retirement. Then. they have q
rude awakening.
Many discover that the plan:
don't provide them with what
they thought they would; that
the money they'll have to retire
on will be considerably less; that
they'll have to work-at least
part time-to make ends meet
For example: Almost all pri-
vate pensions have a specific
formula which must be used to
figure out the retirement pay
ments. The formula may include
such things as how long a person
worked for his company. the size
of his salary, his retirement age,
the amount he and his company
have put into the pension plan
and whether he's eligible for
social security.
Usually it's up to each person
to use the formula to figure what
his pension will pay him. And,
usually he can get help from his
boss on the figuring.
A recent letter is q good ex-
ample. It was from a woman
who had reached retirement age
and applied for her company
pension. Shed figured on having
about $l85 a month to live on
including her social security.
Then, to her amazement she
found she would only have about
Sl45 a month.

do not realize that you are not
imagining" your illness.
have had patients tell me
that they would prefer having
an ulcer, diabetes or heart
trouble rather than suffer the
mental and emotional pangs that
doctors can't put their finger
on" recall one man telling
me that he would gladly have
Ia leg or arm arnputated II he
could exchange it for peace Of
mind.
I labor this point SO that
friends and family members will
be more understanding. Keep
remembering that these people
are as helpless as boat without
a rudder in q whirlpool. For
PHYS sake, don't ask them to
snap out of it,"
AS for what causes chronic
anxiety, all we know is that it
is a manifestation of emotional
turmoil. 1t may have begun in
childhood. On the other hand.
IAN accumulation of recent fears
often throw the nervous system
into wild disorder. Environ
mental stresses at first bend.
then break the patients ability
to withstand them.
Some patients admit 1t may
have started with concern over
Ia hopelessly sick child. Others
have severe financial strains.
Still others are the victims Of
an unhappy marriage. Such pa
tents often find sufficient guild
ance from their doctor to find
their way out of the web in
which they have been trapped.
The person with chronic anx-
iety needs to remember that his
case is not hopeless. He viii not
forever be in fear. Hope and
faith are as important as re-
serpine or euuanil drugs.
