. Getting things underway was
th e o u t-g o in g P re s id e n t
Charles Nathan. After a few’
remarks he turned the floor
over to Andy Lucas who led the
group as they sang, “God Bless
America.”
Cal Calvin, the past District
Governor and a member of the
Prineville Lions Club, spoke on
the functions of Lionism
throughout the world and what
it means to him. Calvin said
Americanism and Lionism go
hand-in-hand when it comes to
helping the underprivileged.
Calvin has been very helpful to
the Warm Springs Lions Club
and is always willing to give a
helping hand.
Ted Webber, the installing
officer, focused his remarks on
the duties of each incoming
officer. There were some new
officers who were absent
because of prior commitments
which called them out of town.
S ta n d -in s were used to
complete the ceremonies. Since
the new President James D.
Cornett was out of town on
business, Francis Atkinson
gave the acceptance speech. He
spoke on what Cornett’s views
are for the club’s future and the
direction and goals for the
coming year.
Atkinson went on to say that
the local Lions Club has
worked hard to aid several
in d iv id u a ls here on the
reservation, however there was
no publicity given to the club
for all its accomplishments. He
continued, saying that with a
lot of support from the
community the club can do a
whole lot more.
The ceremonies were short
and simple and everyone had
an enjoyable evening. Visitors
were wives and guests of club
members. Ted Webber had a
special guest, M asakazu
Kajihara of Hiroshima, Japan.
A lth o u g h th e r e w as a
communication gap he still
seemed to have enjoyed
himself.

Land claim
land ceded by the Treaty of
1855. The Tribes claimed that
the ceded area was about 10
million acres and that it had a
value, at the time of the Treaty,
of at least $10,000,000. The
Tribes claim ed th a t they
received no more than $200,000
in payment under the Treaty
and were entitled to recover at
least $9,800,000 more from the
United States.
In 1954, the Court of Claims

Claims Commission should not
consider or treat the cession of
lands to the Government under
Indian Treaties as acknow
ledgement by the Government
that the Indians ceding that
land had title.
From March 1958 to August
1968, the Tribes fought to
prove exclusive occupancy of
the ten million acres upon
which the Tribes based the
claim. After numerous appeals
and rehearings, the Indian
Claims Commission awarded
the Tribes exclusive occupancy
to only 1,605,000 acres and
thus closed that phase of the
case.
Finally, the loss of acreage
and claims by the Government
fo r o ffse ts a n d T re a ty
considerations brought the
parties to a com prom ise
settlement and to the present
figure of $1,225.000.
Tribal members voted in 1973
to accept that amount.
