said, there were 81.536 Indians be
tween the aces of 8 and IB eligi
ble for school attendance, and that
the total enrollment of Indian
pupils in schools of all classes was
68.8tH. Total average attendance,
he nlaccd at 24.969.
- Noting a minimum figure of 37.8
cents had been set per pupil for
daily food, the commissioner faid
increased aoprotKiations have In

still remains to be accomplished.
"An increasing number of In
dians are seeking relief for medi
cal and surgical conditions and
there is a friendly spirit of co-
ODcration by state, county and mu
nicipal health organizations In
states having large Indian popu
lations. "Efforts have been made to place
Indians in employment off the re
servations," Rhoads said, turning
to the problem of finding work for
tne Indians to do.

the most pressing need of reclama
tion project development. In the
onininn of Dr. Elwood Mead, recla
mation commissioner, expressed in
testimony before the house appro
priations sub-committee.
"The greatest obstacle to develop
ments, particularly on northern pro
jects." he said in discussing the por
tion of the annual interior depart
ment's appropriation bill, "has been
lack of capital on tne pan oi pros
pective settlers. Under the regula
tions a settler must have at least
$aoo0 in cash or As equivalent in
livestock, farming equiment or other
assets deemed to be as useful to the
settler as cash.
"Most of the settlers approved
have between $2000 and $3000. This
is recognised as an entirely inade
quate amount to develop raw land
Into a producing iarm."
Economic investigators, the com
missioner added, agreed that an ex
penditure "of $5000 to $8000 is need
ed to change eighty acres of sage
brush land into a farm.
To succeed a settler needs tnis
capilal or to be able to supplement
his smaller capital by enough credit
to enable this development work w
be carried tiut promptly," he con
tinued. "This credit should be of an
entirely different character from
that which -is furnished or can be
furnished by country banks. The
time of payment should be longer,
the Interest rate lower and on the
amortized plan."
Data available on the application
of 1500 prospective settlers last year
for information about opportunities
on the land showed that more than
sixty percent had available capital
of from $500 to $2500 and less than
25 percent had available capital be
tween $2500 and $5000, he said.

raido messaged that the Unite
States Lines Republic nad saved the
captain and crew of the schooner
Gander Deal as it foundered in
the Atlantic.

involved in the rescue.
Captain and ten seamen all
well," the message read. "Rough
weather and westerly gale. Pro
ceeding at .induced speed." The

blood and fingers left behind re
sulted In their capture at Rose-
burg. The boys are now dubious
about the reliability of that news
paper. This story was told to Deputy
