TUESDAY, APRIL 6. 1954 HKKALD AND NEWS, KIAMATH FALLS. OREGON pack rvm lilt f iravrora wins exe lenses Okay On Trip To Capital To Protest Indian Affairs Reproduced here Is copy or the official letter from Secretary of' the Interior Douglas McKay to waqe urawiora authorising his sal ary and exrjenses diirinv rraw. fold's recent trip to the capital to protest certain Indian affairs on ine xiiamain reservation: Mv dear Mr. Crawford- I have had under consideration the petition which you filed with the Commissioner of Indian Af fairs requesting that you be paid from Klamath tribal funds a sal it rv. ner diem. trancnnrlaHnn anrl other expenses in connection with yuur mp u wasningion to appear ueiure joint commuiees 01 uon gress to offer testimony relating to 6. 2745 and H. R. 73?0 concern ing the termination of Federal re lationship with the Klamath Tribe. I have come to the Conclusion that von have renriprpd a irnliinhlA wrv. ice In presenting the views of a suosianuai numner or ine mem bers of the Klamath Tribe. There toe, I am authorizing the expendi ture ot Klamath tribal funds to pay to you a salary of $20 per day and a per diem of not to ex ceed $9, In lieu of subsistence and all other expenses, from the time you left the Klamath Reservation Senator Not To Run In '54 I WASHINGTON Wh-Sen. Edwin C. Johnson (D-Colo) said today he is "not taking seriously yet" a . move to draft him Into the race for the Democratic nomination for gov ernor in Colorado. . Johnson recently announced he would not be a candidate for re election. His decision was general ly regarded as a blow to Demo cratic hopes of winning senate con trol in the November elections. . ' The veteran Colorado senator 'said in an interview that some of his .friends are "getting excited" about drafting him for the state race but he added that "they'll cool off later." Johnson apparently means to stick to his decision not to seek the Senate seat but there was In his statement at least an indica tion he will think about remaining In politics at the state level. If they can get a proved vote getter like Johnson on their ticket, national Democratic -leaders will feel better about the Colorado sen ate race, and about their over-all chances of picking up the net of one seat they would need "to gain undisputed control .of the Senate. That possibility brightened In the view of many Democrats when former Vice President Alben W. Berkley announced he would go after the Democratic ' senatorial nomination in Kentucky. In other Senate races, Democrats apparently believe their chances have Improved to re-elect ' Sen. Douglas (D-Iin. And In Ohio the minority party thinks it has about the best available candidate in Democratic Sen. Burke to buck what is normally an off-year trend to the Republicans. Senators Gillette (D-Iowa), Mur ray (D-Mont) and Hunt D-Wyo) are viewed as strong candidates for re-election and Democratic leaders say they aren't worrying much about returning Sen. Hum phrey of Minnesota. Customers React To Free Offer AINSWORTH, Neb. l The Rogers Grain and Feed Co. store here figured some more customers might show up if an offer of 10 free chicks were made to all com ers. , - . ' They came all right 4,350 of them. It cost the store 43,500 chicks. for Washington to appear before the committees of Congress up to and including April 1, IBM, as well as the time required to return to the reservation. In addition, you will be allowed the usual railway and sleeping car transportation to and from Washington, or If travel is oy automobile you will receive an amount equal to the cost of railway and sleeping ear transpor tation to and from Washington but salary and per diem allowances shall not be paid for any period in excess of the time required to perform the travel by rail. This action has the approval of Messrs. Boyd Jackson and Jesse L. Kirk, members of the Klamath Executive Committee who are now in Washington. Sincerely yours, Douglas McKay Secretary of the Interior While in Washington at the hear ing Crawford blasted the handling ot affairs on the local reservation, charged that there had been Irregu larities in the handling of the bal loting and stated that no one, in cluding himself, knew at this time what the Klamath tribe wanted.. He charged that some factions on the reservation and the Indian Bureau as a whole had used the tribal council for "more than 30 yeara to block all legislation that would In any way terminate fed eral supervision over the Indians and give them their freedom in dividually or tribally." Crawford said he favored Im mediate liquidation of tribal assets and releasing the Indians as Individuals. Only comment to date on the hearing has come from A. L, Tan dy Jemison, editor and publisher of The First American, a weekly paper devoted to Indian affairs and published In Herndon, Virginia. He ssid: - 'We agree with- Mr. Crawford. His testimony also makes clear the reason for - a lot of the opposition that has been so loud against this program and which has been so widely publicised in the public press. Who ever heard of anyone with his hands In the public till that would "liquidate" his lob? Not without a f ieht, thaVs for sure. Members of tribal councils are no different. They are in control and they Intend to stay in control un til the last penny is gone, too. What becomes of the arguments about having to pay taxes? The estimated total land and personal property taxes on Klamath proper ty is 1273,550 per year. What is It costing them now to operate at a tribe? Approximately S400.000 per year and If that Isn't taxes, what is It? Listen Klamaths, that's a straw bogy man they're trying to scare you with. It's cheaper for you to be cltlsensl" An investigating commute irom the Indian Bureau Is slated, to ap pear here on April 10th for a sur vey of matters on ine reservations.
