last year, it did not take part as
a group in the negotiations. Levis
contested the right of Joseph E.
Moody, head of the Dixie organlja
lloii. to sit in on talks dealing with
the disputed mine pension fund.
Court Looms
It Lewis challenges the right of
the association to bargain lor the
14 big groups in the rich southern
fields, he may be in for more court
appearances.
Moody already has filed a com
plaint wttli the national labor re
lations board, charging Lewis with
an unfair labor practice by refusing
to bargain with him on the pen
sions. The Lewis-Moody conflict dates
hack to the court order Issued April
3 by Judge Matthew F. MeGuIre
against the mine strike then in
progress. The judge also ordered
union and operator representatives
to negotiate on the pension fund.
Lewis was charged with rclus.il
to obey the strike-halt order and a
contempt of court fine totaling
31.420.000 w as Imposed on him and
the UMW. . However, he did send
union representatives to talk over
the pension fund with the operator
group.
Lewis has given no indication of
which his contract demands will be.
but the operators expect him to ask
for a wage boost and other conces
sions including an increase in the
10-cent tonnage royalty to finance
the proposed pensions.

Magnuson said last night he will
fly to the national capital to be pres

$708,586,660 appropriation bill for
flood control and rivers and harbors
Monday.
He said a 3200.000.000 cut in the
(640.253.200 waterways appropriation
is advocated in a minority report by
three members of the senate appro
priations committee. This, he as
serted, "implies a proposal to slash
funds urgently needed" for the
Foster Creek and McNary dams.
Magnuson has been in the state

Badger Clark, a bearded poet
philosopher of the Black Hills, ha

stand between him and his life's
aim a quiet quest for God.
" "I don't suppose any man in the
state has a smaller income than I

Dakota's official
poet leureate a
title that costs
the taxpayers
nothing as he
gets no pay.
"The Badger"
Is a tall, distin
guished man
with a Van Dyke
beard who wears
a flowing green HAL BOYLE
necktie, forest green Jacket, whip
cord breeches and polished riding
boots. For 25 years he has lived
alone and liked it in a "cabin with
four rooms and a path" he largely
built himself In the Custer state
park. He pays 310 a year ground
rent and hasn't held a steady job

for 43 years since he was 22.
Hermit Life
"I escaped early." he smiled. He
told me of his semi-hermit life as
we lounged In the state game lodge.
Calvin Coolidges summer White
House in 1927. after dining on ten
der but rough-grained buffalo
steaks.
His cabin is known as "Badger
hole." and he has the neighbors he
wants buffalo, deer and birds. He
feeds all he can with his small in
come. The birds make a cloud about
my head when I step outside," he
said.
Badger has written some 200
poems and 300 short stories.1 He is
a kind of western-style Rudyard
Kipling and at least two of his
"verses" as he prefers to call them
have become national anthology
favorites. They are "The Job" and
"The Cowboy's Prayer."
His books have brought him little
money, however, and for many years
he said he had been earning his
way "by my law." By this he meant
the speeches he makes to banquets,
women's clubs and high school and
college groups. He doesn't seek out
these engagements. People come to
him.
Dislikes Cities
The "Badger" likes individual
people but dislikes cities. He goes
to town only once every two weeks
to buy supplies and stays only a
couple of hours.
"I have given up many things
fatherhood, society, financial suc
cess. But I enjoy my life to the
limit. What am I looking for? I
suppost it is God. What else?
There are times when I would like
to be with people with my friends
but I am never really lonely. Life
is a habit. And I feel I am the
happiest man In the Black Kills."
Clark at 65 is still a handsome
man. I asked him why he had
never married.
"I am very frank about my In
come." he smiled. "That does the
trick."

or so, the Irdtan children have attended regular public schools, ond cur
rently there is an issue as to whether government or Indian funds should
be ollotted to Klamath county to help meet the expense ot education ot
Indian children.
The old school ot Yamax was abandoned many yeais otjo, ami most
buildings hove disappeared. Yamax, which bcknc the white man came was
