Neuberger (D-Ore.) said to day he has endorsed a plan to finance termination of the Klam ath Indian reservation with gov ernment bonds. The bonds would mature annually over a 20-year period. Neuberger said the plan, for paying the Indians in govern ment bonds came from Thomas Watters and Eugene Favell, man agement specialists handling ter mination of the government's custodianship over the Klamath tribe. ) Would Protect Indians Under the proposal, Neuberg er said tribal members qualified as fully competent to manage substantial sums of money would be authorized to cash their bonds immediately for a discount rate which would be fixed by law to protect Indians from too great a loss. The senator said the "current value" of the bonds should be no less than 75 per cent of the en tire retail value of the resources of the reservation. He said that by accepting such deferred pay ment "the Klamath tribal mem bers would, in effect, be accept-1 ing less than the retail worth of the reservation, but a price which would be considerably greater than the 'liquidation' value that would come to them if the timber were allowed to glut the market under the exist ing law."
