To the editor,
To our friends and relatives; at 3
o'clock in the morning someone
threw a football-sized rock through
the window of our youngest son's
room. The shattered glass covered
him with shards and bits of glass, the
rock missing his head by centime
ters. A hole was knocked in the wall
beside his head and the rock slammed
the bedroom door shut.
We know who done this. The per
sons responsible know that we know.
Ten o'clock p.m. while watching t.v.
in the living room, someone drives
by and shoots out that window, nar
rowly missing our son. We don't
know who or why they done this but
we did get a car description.
We've also had several car win
dows shot, headlights shot, and cars
keyed. What I want to know is WHY?
Are we being pulled into a family
feud we know nothing about? Did I
or my family say or do something to
offend you? Or what is going on? At
some point this BS has got to stop.
I try, and I teach my family to
respect other people' s opinions, e ven
if you disagree. And to treat others as
you would like them to treat you. But
what do I tell them when this is going
on? Besides pack a strap and watch
you back.
But I would rather have a healthy
reaction and not let these incidents
control us. In that regard, I invite
these people, and anyone else, friend
or foe, to stop by, kick a bumper or
two, and get to know us and put the
past behind us. I know this is diffi
cult and indeed, may be impossible.

to talk & of disappointment
But I can day we at least tried. Thank
the Lord no one was hurt.
Update, Wide Spot Auto Sales:
Our dealership is still open for busi
ness, albeit minus grant monies ap
proved for but yet to see. I was ap
proved for a $15,000 grant and re
ceived $8,500 ($6,500 yet to see) and
a $15,000 loan which I received.
Your car probably cost more than I
received to get my business started.
While I'm deeply grateful for what
I did receive, I'm disappointed in the
system. I spent several years devel
oping a business plan. Each time I
thought my plan was complete I was
told to add something which was
usually good and I agreed. Soon my
plan went from the basic $10,000
grant to the maximum $20,000 grand
and $30,000 loan. I was dreaming
$50,000 to start-up my business.

Attention Tribal Members
1 . Have you been taken to Tribal
Court for an Informal Hearing?
2. Was there a warrant issued for
your arrest for an Informal Hearing?
3. Did you spend time in jail on a
warrant issued by the Tribal Court
for an Informal Hearing?
4. Did you or do you have a gar
nishment of wages from an Informal
Hearing Judgment order from the
Tribal Court?
If the answers to the above men
tioned statement is "Yes", your rights
were violated by invalid procedures
of the court. If you want more infor
mation regarding these issues, you
can contact me at Bruce and Barbara
Jim residence, 6608 Wolf Point Road,
Warm Springs, OR.
Please note: All appointments to
be made after 5 p.m. or any time
during the weekend.
All alone I was encouraged by
Small Business. And I followed their
guidelines, providing documentation
and cash projections via a business
plan. Because of NEPOTISM and
ELITISM within the organization, I
knew I would personally have a tough
go. But the future looks good with or
without the grant.
Since we opened February 2,
1 999, we bought 37 cars and sold 35 .
This exceeds our projections where
we anticipated selling 20 cars for the
first year. Being on a shoe-string
budget we can only move a couple of
cars at a time (part time basis more or
less). But I can guarantee you, we
will be growing in the future.
Thanks for the calls and visits.
We appreciate it.

THE VETERAN AND MEDICARE
The Veteran And Medicare
Why do Veterans need Medicare?
What can Medicare do for the Vet
eran that the VAMC cannot?
Docs the increased cost of Medi
care really result in worthwhile ser
vices? VA Medical Services Provisions
As a veteran, you have a special privi
lege, use of free medical care at the VA
Medical Center.
However, in these times of con
stantly shrinking Federal monies for
the VA, and the increased life span of
veterans, we are finding that the VA
cannot provide all possible medical
services to all U.S. veterans.
Your Medicare coverage can help
protect you from medical bills in many
circumstances:
In 1989, our hospital in Portland
was full. For several days, eligible vet
erans were "diverted" to other hospi
tals. As soon as beds were opened,
veterans who still needed medical care
could be transferred on a priority basis
to the VA Medical Center. But these
veterans had private hospital bills for

August, 1999, at 3:30 p.m. This hearing has been
scheduled at the request of People's Credit for the
following reasons: Overdue Account.
You are hereby required to appear at this time
on your own behalf. It is important that you attempt
to resolve this issue, in order to prevent further
action against you in a State Court. If you fail to

Greg U. "Yen-wy" Jackson Jr.,
age 22 years passed away in an
automobile accident on July 10,
1999. He was a lifetime resident of
Warm Springs and an enrolled
member of the Confederated
Tribes.
Jackson graduated from Ma
dras High School in June 1 995. He
was active in NASU (Native ,
American Student Union), Healthy
Lifestyles & received varsity let
ters in football and baseball. He
set a weight lifting record in his

thousands of dollars for which they are
responsible. With Medicare Part A.
they had relief from some of those
bills; with Medicare Part B, they had
coverage for doctor's and surgeon's
fees, and oxygen and supply charges
were partially covered. Because the
age of veterans continues to rise, there
will continue to be more demand for
VA hospital beds than the VA can
meet.
After acute care hospitalization
is no longer necessary, many veterans
still need help at home because they are
not yet well. Home oxygen, visiting
nurses, home dialysis units, ventila
tors, and other health care equipment
are usually not provided by the VA .
They may be provided on a time lim
ited basis or for persons in specific
categories or geographical areas. Medi
care Part B covers these at 80, which
makes them affordable to most veter
ans. Service connected Veterans of
ten believe they are covered for all
treatment, home care, transportation,
and other medically related services or
devices. This is true for problems re
lated to the service connected disabil
ity. But if you become sick with some
OTHER illness, and are less than 50
service connected, the VA can only
help you as much as other non-service
connected veterans. So, even if you are
serviceconnected, it pays to have Medi
care coverage.
The Portland VAMC does not
currently have a Hospice Program for
those veterans who are terminally ill,
and who do not want any additional
treatment other than "comfort mea
sures". Medicare will cover unlimited
nursing, social work, Chaplain and
other Hospice services.
