This is a time of year when everyone is getting sick. With a few basic ingredients, you can make you won, less expensive home remedies that are equal or better than medi cations advertised on TV. Advertised drugs can be harmful as well as helpful, if not taken properly. With any medication, use caution and good judgement; what may be | good for one person may be t harmful or useless for an other. Keep ALL drugs away from children! Many .medica tions look like candy to child ren. Keep drugs in a locked medicine cabinet. What do you really need in your medicine chest? Stock your shelf with these few sup plies and clean out the clutter: a small bottle of aspirin; band aids, bandages, and tape; ther mometer; syrup of ipecac; rubbing alcohol; and petro leum jelly. Buy a small bottle of as pirin for a large bottle can “go bad.” If aspirin has a strong vinegar odor, flush them down the toilet. Ipecac causes vom iting in a person who has swallowed poison. Always call your doctor or Poison Control Center (U of 0 Medical Center 503-225-8311) before giving Ipe cac. Here are several effective home remedies that you can make from your medicine chest and kitchen supplies. There are less expensive and often safer than advertised medications. But remember - what may be good for one person or situation may not work for another. Use caution and judgement. — Controlling Vomiting Caused by*Flu: Do not eat or drink any thing for a few hours. If no more vomiting occurs, give the patient small sips of clear liquids at 20-30 minute inter vals. Liquids such as diluted apple juice, flat soft drinks, broth, or water are good. Do not give milk! If the patient keeps this down for several hours, gradually add soda crackers. Go slowly! If vom iting begins again, start the procedure all over, only go more slowly. — Controlling Diarrhea: Do not eat solid foods and milk. Offer clear liquids just as you would to control vom iting. After several hours, try cooked vegetables, especially Carrots if the patient is vom iting, too, or continues to have diarrhea, call your doctor. — Cough Syrup: Mix to gether 1 part lemon juice, 2 parts honey, and 1 part whis key (optional). Don’t give to persons with diabetes or hay fever. — Nose Drops: Mix- ¥4 teaspoon salt in 1 cup water. Boil water ahead of time to sterilize. Spray nose four times a day and as needed. Make a fresh solution every few days. One ounce spray bottles are found at the doctor’s office or pharmacy. — Itching Rashes: Pre pare a lukewarm bath with ¥4 cup baking soda. — Painful Rashes: Make a smooth paste of cornstarch or baking soda and water; apply to rash. — Dry Skin: Vegetable shortenings and oils are more like natural skin oils than vaseline or baby oil. They can be used to cleanse and protect a baby’s diaper area and for dry skin. On March 18, 1976, Senator Lee Metcalf was to have intro duced the Central Arizona In dian Water Resources Act of 1976, which provides for leg islature settlement of thelegal water rights claims of the Central Arizona' Tribes — Ak Chin, Fort McDowell, Gila River, Salt River and Papago — and which was drafted by the Tribes and their legal coun sel, who seek its introduction, the “Spilyay Tymoo” learned. It is believed this proposed bill has great merit and will go far toward correction a century of injustice, hardship and pov- 'erty endured by the Tribes as a result of deprivation of their water rights essential to their farming economy and future self-sufficiency. Senator Metcalf, however, did not offer the bill on March 18 as planned. The delay of the bill’s introduction is attributed to an Arizona Senator’s con tention that the Arizona Gov ernor and the Tribes are mov ing toward a meaningful steele- ment that could be jeopardized by the proposed legislation. The Tr.ibes contend that the Senator from Arizona is misinformed and that there, are no nego tiations, meaningful or other wise, presently taking place. The Tribes wish for the immed iate introduction of the Central Arizona Indian Water Resour ces Act of 1976. • On behalf of the Tribes’ call for action, the NCAI urges you to contact Senator Metcalf by mailgram to encourage his positive efforts in this impor tant matter. The NCAI has already contacted Senator Met calf in this regard, as well , as contacting every member of the Senate urging that Senator Metcalf be joined as a co pursuant to cooperative agree ment between the Confederated Tribes and the Oregon.

By these means the younger generations are being taught, with wishes of the senior citizens, that Indian customs will remain in tact and never die. Credit is due to the wise thinking of the older genera tions for the protection of the reservation: there was long range planning to protect all the natural resources; the hunting and fishing rights, on an off the reservation as stip ulated in the treaties with the government. The wise council- ing Handed down through the generations, right up the pre sent shows the senior citizens are thinking ahead for fear that something might happen that would harm the reser vation and the Indian rights. Today we can still hunt, fish and roam the country side as we please; fish along the Columbia and Shearers Bridge. We have a good stand of timber, moderate amount of water, range and grazing land. In closing, I would like to say thanks to them and that the present generation contin ues to carry the ball. er”. Mr. Stevens has been a long-time advocate of various Indian causes including Indian preference in employment, lo cal control of Indian programs, rights of Indian traditionalists, programs for Indian education, alcoholism, and drug abuse, and improvement of living con ditions for both reservation and non-reservation Indians.
