Soviet Jets

TOKYO. June 4 (AP).-Jet
planes believed to be Russian
made three observation ap-
proaches on an American air.
liner over the North Pacific
more than 200 miles on Soviet
territory. Northwest Airlines
reported.
The United States Air Force
said 1t had no planes in the
area at the time, prompting
speculation that Soviet fighters
had approached the Seattle-to-
Tokyo Northwest DC-7C.
The plane crew reported that
the closest approach came
within 2 or 3 miles but the
plane or planes did not cross
in front Of the airliner.
The American plane con-
tinued on course and reached
Tokyo ahead Of schedule. It's
46 passengers were asleep and
apparently unaware of the in
cident.
zoo Miles From Kamchatka
A Northwest spokesman said
the mystery planes appeared
when the airliner was some 200
miles southeast of the Soviet
Unions Kamchatka Peninsula
and in the center of the busy
commercial air lane used by
five United States, Canadian
and European companies.
Siberian-based Soviet Jets
have recently been reported pa
trolling the region Of the Great
Circle airlane between Japan
and Alaska.
An airline spokesman said
from vapor trails and specks on
the dawn sky, it was assumed
two or three jets were involved.
The planes dropped two flares,
presumably to identify the
American craft.
Believed From Siberia
The airliner's captain, Ira
Bortles Of Seattle, said the first
approach was made from the
direction of Siberia by a SINGLE
jet fighter. He said the plane
changed course as If to cross
in front Of us. and when he
was two to three miles from us,
turned left and away"
Less than a minute later.
Capt. Bortles continued, q
bright white flare was spotted,
and the airliner passed within
a mile or two Of it.
While watching the flare, the
plane saw another jet-or the
first one-appear again on the
right, come within 10 miles,
then turn away. A minute or
two later another Jet appeared
on the same side, came within
10 or is miles and disappeared
behind the airliner.

Iroquois Indian parlance that
means plain "big council house"
to you and me. Speeches were
made, countless rings of tobacco
smoke blown skywards to bribe
the Great Spirit into getting on
the Indians side of the contro-
versy; and great deliberation
went on.
Finally it was decided that
since the Wyandot-Seneca War
had been going on for 100 years
and nobody could stop it, the
thing to do was to let the two
nations fight it out until none of
either were left. Through the past
that had not worked however,
because when too many warriers
had been killed off to go on there
was a lull until the boys grew
big enough to fight and then the
war went on all over again.
Few of the Indians knew or re-
membered what had started the
war but all were allied through
commitments to one side or the
other. What actually had begun
it so many years before was the
rejection by a Seneca maiden of
her Wyandot lover because
"never having taken a scalp, he
was no warrior" To get around
this the young Wyandot had gone
out and brought her back several
scalps-all of Senecas. The Sem
eca tribe had retaliated and the
war was on. 1t had lasted more
than 100 years.
AS of the encroachment of the
whites on their best hunting
grounds and the confscation of
their lands it was not difficult
for the Indians to decide-since
the war already was on and
many on both sides had been
killed and the white men were
"fools who could neither run nor
fight to protect themselves" war
it was to be. That was the In
dian declaration of war in 1892
that finally lost them their lands,
their lives and the war itself.
So decided the big convention
of the Federation of Indian Trib-
es and Nations, and those who
had come from far away went
back home and let the tribes who
lived in the areas involved fight
it out themselves.
In Ohio before the white men
came the Indians were well
organized into one big federation
with each tribe or nation having
its own stipulated territory
whose boundaries the other tribes
knew and respected. Every tribe
decided its own affairs in a strict
state rights" arrangement re-
spected by the others and only
matters like war or of general
interest were taken up in council
