Don't Miss This Meeting (TRIBE'S REVIVAL lOLDjUOLLIER Commissioner Points To Re habilitation Of Indians Under Federal Guidance Over Course Of Years. By John Collier (XT. S. Commissioner of Indian Af fairs Guest Columnist for Preston Graver). WASHINGTON There Is a wide spread belief that the so-called new deal for Indians Is a novel, unprece dented thing which leaped Into ac tion from the brains of brain trusters in 1083. The case of the Jlcarllla Apaches serves to correct that mis understanding. Across 40 years, after the United States annexed the southwest, the Apaches were the terror of every body else, and the Jlcarllla Apaches were as bad as the worst. In 1887. the Jlcarillaa were set down on a tract In New Mexico upon the high plateau which straddles the Contin ental divide, close to the Colorado line. In that same year the general allotment act for Indians was passed, requiring the breaking up of tribal disregarding even the family Institu tion among Indians. Under this act. the Indians lost BO million acres of their best land In the 45 years after 1887. Hopeless, Dying Twenty years ago, the Jicarllls Apachea were an embittered, hope less, and, literally, a dying tribe. Wielr numbers had fallen from 705 In 1000 to 685 in 1010. They were leasing their entire reservation 760. 000 acres to commercial stockmen for $10,000 a year, and they were starving upon this lease money and U. S. doles. In that hopeless hour, there were two necessities. One was to check the shocking death rate. The other was to get the Jlcarlllas to go to work. The work could be only one sort livestock work. The devastating mortality rate was partly a reflex of a despairing and unoccupied In tellectual and emotional life. Small Issues of sheep were made to each family on a loan basis. Ad ditional Issues rewarded ability and willingness. As a result, from an em bittered and dying people In 1020, the Jlcarlllas last year, after 28 years of upbuilding, showed an earned tribal Income which had Jumped from $10,000 to $150,000, and earned Individual Income which had Jumped from $20 to $200. In place or dying, they were multiplying. The Indian reorganization act was advocated by President Roosevelt and signed by him In 1934. Almost every. body said "These Jlcarlllas will not understand the act. The only time they have ever taken collective re sponsibility was on the warpath, Their ancient forms simply cannot be readjusted Into a modern program. Forget about the Jlcarlllas." In addition many people said "There Is an Indian trader who for 40 years has been a sort of federal overloard of the Jlcarlllas. His name Is Emmet Wirt and he will never let the Jlcarlllas organize." Hopeful, Thriving Curious to know the real situation I went there and was met by this reputedly ruthless dictator, Emmet Wirt. He proved to be one of the most interesting human beings : have met In years. He Insisted the Jlcarlllas were can able of any reasonable adjustment if treated like grown men. He offered to help find out what they really woum ao. men I met with the In. dlans. Most of them do not read English or talk it. but the questions they asked probed to the heart of Indian affairs. Sixteen months ago the Jlcarlllas adopted their self-governing const!. tutton under the reorganization act. A year ago they unanimously adopt ed their charter of business self- government. Then their delegates came to Washington and negotiated an $80,000 loan under the act to establish the tribe as Its own trader.
