Armed with great determina tion to "get the ball rolling," rep resentatives of the 12 Colum bia River basin tribes gathered at Spokane to discuss the possi bility of a unified water com mission. All tribal representa tives agreed that unity is the key to the commission's success. "We need a more organized voice in the Columbia River basin - we must form this com mission," said Warm Springs Tribal Council Chairman Delbert Frank. "We must use our sovereign rights together and unify." I Ie said, "Whether we want Carter's water policy or not, no coalition or commission is go ing to undo it. You should use the policy as beneficially as pos sible within the law." In other news: The remaining 600 or so Kla math Indians received final pay ment for 135,000 acres of tribal land that the federal government condemned in the 1960s. A to tal of $81 million was divided among the members with some individual checks reaching as high as $170,000. The Klamaths have received two previous payments with ex tensive media coverage each time. However this time, news reporters were barred from the inside of the U.S. National Bank in Klamath Falls to avoid, what a bank official termed, "a circus-like atmosphere." And this news: Residents on the south end of the Warm Springs Reserva tion can begin placing their or ders for telephones. The cables have already been laid and ser vice will begin soon.
