Masons have no so«l
A little bit of excitem ent was caused this w eek
w hen the M asonic lo d g e attem pted to e,ect the
A lbina Hum on Resources Center's fund raiser to
m ake room for President Ford.
Although the tickets w ere out and the publicity
released, the center was inform ed, an d not too
politely, that they w e re no longer w elco m e
A

S m a rt
W ith th e w m o m y going
do w nh ill e v e ry day. it is of
p a rtic u la r ru n re rn to note
th a t the pour, especially the
Itlark s am i o th e r m ino rity
groups in the nation, are
la*arn how the levy would
a ffre t yo ur p u rk rlh o u k x by
r e a d in g Rita's interviews
w ith four residents of her
neighborhood
One repo rts
th a t taxes are n t all had
news
th a t his p ro p e rty
lax refund increased from
$50 to $200 b etw een 1972
and 1973.
D o n 't BUM the
senes s ta rtin g n ext w eek.
The M onday hearing of the O regon Fish Com
mission and the W ashington Fish D epartm ent is a
reflection of the attitude of these agencies tow ard
Indion fisherm en. The m ere fact that officials w ere
brought from Seattle and Boise to consider closure
o f the Indian fishing season demonstrates the total
lack of respect the ogencies h ave for the Indian
ftshing industry and the court decisions regarding
their treaty rights.
The u n b e lie v e a b le fact is that this prospective
closure, which w ould have prevented the proiected
catch of 20.000 salm on, was to save a possible
100 steelhead
Everyone adm its that this year's poor steelhead
run is the result of the dams in the C olum bia and
Snake Rivers and the destruction of fingerlings on
their w a y to the ocean an d not the Indian fishing.
The logic w en t os usual.
The com m ercial and
sport seasons w e re o pened Their catch was good
The fish ore scarce, so stop the Indians fishing
above B onneville Dom
There seems to be no
regard for the fe d e ra l court decision which says
that the Indions must be a llo w e d the catch. The
Commissioners avo id this problem w t h their own
d efin itio n o f the court decision.
But aside from w h at the treaties g u aran tee or
the lodges say. w e ore sure no one w o u ld even
consider closing the non-lndton com m ercial fishing
or the sports ftshing to save 100 fish.
