Indians Use
Bid Privilege
Klamath Tribal members took
advantage of a sales provision per
mitting them to meet any high
bids and pre-empted all but three
of the highest bids at the recent
sale of Indian lands held by the
Indian Sales Office in Klamath
Falls.
Earl Wilcox, manager of the
sales office, reports that the three
units not pre-empted were Nos.
83 . 85 and 132.
Units 83, a 158.85 acre unit, and
85, a 160 acre unit, received bids
only from the Warner Valley Stock
Company.
Unit 132, a 100 acre unit, was
appraised at $750. Richard L. Went
worth, Klamath Falls, was the only
bidder at $475.
Provisions of the sales stipulate
any person whose name appears
on the final roll of the tribe, or
a guardian on behalf of any such
person who is a minor or an in
competent, shall have the right
to purchase, for his or its own
account, but not as an agent for
others, any oL such property in
lots as offered for sale (or not
less than the highest offer received
by competitive bid.
Some criticism over return of
the deposits uf' unsuccessful bidders
has arisin since the opening of bids
on November 24.
Wilcox stated, just prior to the
opening of bids, lhat all deposits
would be held until cleared by the
secretary of the interior.
"I have been in contact with the
department by phone," Wilcox ex
plained, "and have been trying to
get the authority to return these
deposits.
"Checks should be drawn and ail
deposits of bidders who were un
successful should be in the mail
to them this weekend," Wilcox
reported.
"We arc gelling this point clar
ified." he added, "in time for the
next land sale."
The next sale Is scheduled for
Tuesday, December 9. at 2 p.m.
Many large units of timbered land
are included in this sale.
The sales arc being held lo se
cure funds with which to reim
burse members of the tribe who
recently elected to withdraw.
Provisions of the sales give tri
bal members also the right to use
portions of the funds they expect
to get from their share of the
tribal assets in order to meet high
bidders.

' w
structed regarding the fixing of
dues. The amendment for consid
eration reads that teachers' dues
be one-half of one per cent of sal
ary and no less than $15 for
teaching, supervisory and clerical
work, under this amendment,
coaching and extra-curricular sal
aries would be included in the
dues and not the base salary
alone.
The trio was instructed to vote
for an annual $5 fee, a $15 reduc
tion, for membership in the OEA
Placement Bureau. Tre payment
of an annual one and one-half per
cent of annual salary would also
be eliminated. This would not af
fect out-of-state applicants.
A third measure which the rep
resentative council will consider
will be the rebate given lo local
Classroom Teacher's Associations.
If passed, the amendment will in
crease the money matched by the
stale OEA from 25 to 75 cents.
Under the present system, $1.25
for each member is given back to
local units and of this, 25 cents
is given to CTA, which the state
association matches.
State Legislative Committee
member, Harvey Denham, told the
Willard meeting this his commit
tee is preparing an amendment
whereby local school boards would
take out insurance for school em
ployes precluding suits against in
dividuals and making the boards
responsible. This bill will be con
sidered by the 1959 Oregon Legis
lature. ,
Denham also mentioned that his
group has considered revisions of
organizational law, increase of sal
ary from $11,500 to $15,000 per an
num for state superintendent of
public instruction, the anti-loiter-ing
act, absentee ballots for school
elections, and permissive legisla
tion for kindergartens to be estab
lished in communities of less than
20.000. This is not to be attained
through the use of basic school
support funds, Denham com
mented.
The three delegates were un
instructed on the proposal of
doubling the current 50 days ac
cumulated sick leave with pay.
They will- attend the Portland
meeting with the knowledge that
the local OEA opposes the appoint
ment of the superintendent of pub
lic instruction by members of the
Stale Board of Education.
Other, proposals (or Portland
consideration include the deduction
o( taxes for education: accumu
lated sick leave to carry over in
state district transfers: and the
raising of state disability benefits
from $50 to $100.
A bill which was aired in meet
ings of the 1956 and 1958 Legisla
ture dealing with the equalization
of the Basic School Support Funds
will again be brought before the
OEA Representative Council for
reconsideration. The bill seeks to
distribute state funds according to
the needs of the district and num
ber of pupils.
Superintendent of city schools.
Arnold Gralapp. told the teachers
gathered of the importance to the
Basin of the National Education
Act which allots 40 million dollars
of federal funds for distribution to
the states' educational programs.
Gralapp. speaking as a member
of the Federal Legislative Com
mittee, said that the money is to
be used wisely if additional fed
eral aid is lo be expected.
'If not. he said, "slate and lo
cal districts will have to look for
other means of income for the fu
ture educational needs."
