were: parking, holidays and
store hours. A motion was made
and approved that Sidney stores
stay open one night each week.
Also that they would be open

to change the store hours on Good

would meet the second Monday OF

to discuss any common problems
as may arise. Mrs. Trudy Hall
is Chairman of this committee.

Truth Serum" Is
Winning Topic For
]. Harry Johnson

j. Harry johnson proved the
use of Truth Serum" as a topic
to be effective against all corners
Tuesday evening at the Lalonde
as three more speakers were
eliminated from the Sidney Toast
masters speech contest.
Mr.. johnson stated that Moth
ing could be more revealing and
dangerous than the results of the
use of truth serum. How would
you like to tell the truth about
your income tax or have the truth
told about you, he challenged. He
continued by exploring the pos
sible effect telling the truth would
have in such areas as politics, do
meStic. labor and management,
and government. He summed up
his talk by saying that rather
than causing a Juror which
would put such people as lawyers,
labor leaders, tax collectors and
others in this country out of work
perhaps we should send the truth
serum to Russia and let them
updNe W1S COI1QSIOl1. EllVdlly 1S
felt that anyone who wants a
shot of truth serum should get
it from the government SO every
one can pay for it.
1t was the feeling of our gener-

evening did a fine job which re-
suited in good enthusiastic partici-

Housing Authority
Committee Formed
For Local Project

A local Housing Authority is
being formed for the planning,
construction and management of
a 50-unit project in the Moccasin
Flat area near the "old peoples"
section.
The LIZA, appointed by the
Blackfeet Tribal Council, will
work with the Housing and Home
Finance Agency of the Public
Housing Administration for re-
payable federal-aid funds to con-
struct dwelling units not to com
pete with the standard housing
market but to be in direct com
petition with slum housing.
A study committee of the LIZA,
Andy Greenshields, Phil A. Ward,
Meade NJ. Swingley and Bill Ken,
nedy, in a Saturday, Sept. l6
meeting, studied a model ordin,
ance applicable at another In
dian reservation for revisions
insertions or deletions.
The revised ordinance will be
submitted to the Blackfeet Tri
bal Business Council, who will
be the corporate entity to deal
for the loan, for approval, after
which the LIZA will take prompt
action to work through official
channels to get the housing prof
ect underway. -- - ..
Others on the LIZA are Ilifi
Mckay, Walter S. Wetzel, Father
Gillen, with Howard F. johnson
Supt., Blackfeet Agency, the ex
officio member.
Sufficient tribal acreage will
be available to begin construc,
ton without wholesale removal
of existing dwellings.
When the long term loan is
paid up, the project will become
the property of the LIZA.
The Browning project is ex-
pected to be the forerunner for
similar ones at Heart Butte and
Starr School.

~ Club Dues Needed
To Continue CJLH

Persons owning TV sets and
members of the Browning TV
Club are urged to pay their dues
Immediately or it will be neces-
sary to cut off the reception of
CJLH Lethbridge.
A new translator must be in
stalled, meeting specifications of
the FEC, or reception will have
to be discontinued in November.
The new translator must be
ordered and built according to
specification. This will take ap-
proximately three weeks for de-
livery after construction, so it
is therefore imperative that funds
be in the treasurer's account to
pay for the installation.

Gilman A. Hill and Bill Col
burn, president and vice-presi-
dent, respectively, of the Petrol
cum Research Corporation of
Denver, taking turns, spoke on
the safety factors involved in the
project and the resultant eco
nomic impact on the entire COM
munity should the Blackfeet tribe
consent to form partnership in
a development company and the
matter receives the approval of
government agencies, specifically
the Atomic Energy Commission.
About $4,000 acres of the res
ervation's IL million acres would
be used, 10000 of it for under
ground storage of wastes and an
adjacent $4,000 acres for an in
dustrial park.
Legitimate contracts with the
government and industry, such
as chemical companies and others
with waste disposal problems,
would eventually entail an Oper-
alton aggregating roughly 80 to
go million dollars to handle the
expected volume.
A dam over Two Medicine river
would be proposed to provide
water.
The research officials said the
safety features of the site and
the savings in the governments
expense in its present temporary
storage operations will make the
project attractive to the Atomic
Energy Commission.
They said their company spent
2ha years and several millions of
dollars searching for safe sites,
and described the Blackfeet site
as zone out of five - the one we
| prefer to develop" Another one
of the five is across the border
in Alberta, they said. Their re-
search took them to several for
eign countries.
They emphasized that the by
product disposal operation would
in no way be detrimental to past,
present, or future exploration of
oil or gas in the area, and that
the atomic by-product is not in
itself explosive, since the govern
ment has spent huge sums of
money to explode the original
material.
Recoverability of the stored
atomic by-product is not desired,
they said, and that the plan is to
store it p erm n emily under
round, unless future research in
dictates otherwise.
Pertinent portions of the agree
ment to form partnership in the
development company, termed
very lenient," were flashed on
the screen to show the presence
of veto powers on the part of the
tribe as to indicate it will lose
no part of its sovereign rights
in entering the venture.
Everette Darlington, from the
State Planning Board, Helena,
asked why the researchers had
not contacted state offices with
the information being made
available at the open meeting,
since there have been some eX-
pressions among individual mem
bers of the Oil and Gas Commits
sion and the Bureau of Mines on

He said the official channel
for it will be from the local level
to the State Planning Board, to
the Bureau of Indian Affairs, and
eventually to the U. S. Commerce
Department through the ARA for
final approval.

In this connection, Fuhrer said,
proposed industries or projects
tending to give the most employ
ment to the most people will re-
ceive priority under the loan pro-
gram.
