Indian Chief Asks For
"American Indian Day''
Chief Red Fox Skuihushu, Northern
Blaekfuot, full-blood Indian, presented
a communication to the house yesterday
in which he aks that the law inakeis
of Oregon set aside as a state holiday a
certain day in the year as "-American
Indian Day. "
He happens to Mve at Topponish,
Wash., and in his pctitiott for the In
dian holiday, says he i8 speaking for
tho SiyjOO Incians living in Oregon,
although he does not specifically state
where the 20,000 Oregon Indians are
living.
The fourth Saturday of September of
each year is suggested as Indian holi
day, as it is in the hunting moon dur
ing tho days of Indian sun;2r.
In his lengthy communication, Mr.
Skiuhufhu, who signs himself the Rev.
Chief Red Fox Kkiuhushu writes: "Wo
know not the hyphen. We know not the
pro of this or pro of that. We are 100
per cent American."
Tho letter of Chief Bed Fox present
cd to the house yesterday is as follows:
"My Dear Honorablo Sir: In behalf
of my people, we North American In
dians, I nu ke an appeal to you, to have
mo legioiaturo body to make 'American
Indian Day' a state holiday. Surely
the state of Orcgon can d0 tins' much
for ua true sons of America, and give
my people honor.
"I ht-ve seen the governor personally
on this and presented to him a copy in

ports often reached .the city of tho
numerous deaths in the shipbuilding in
dustry in Portland. It was even said
that the Portland hospitals were filled
witn men who had bcen injured iu the
snipyaras.
The report of the state accident com
mission for the year 1918 contradict
this rumor. With 182 fatal accidents
during the past year. only 45 of these
occurred in the shipyards. Ten of the
45 are credited to the steel shipbuilding
yards and 35 to the wooden shipyards.
As usual in a lumber state, the great
est' number of accidents is in the lum
ber industry. To sawmills and logging,
which includo logging railroads, is cred
ited 85 fatal accidents last year. '
With the logging and lumber industry
ns tho occupation where tho greatest
number of fatal accident happen, and
the shipyards second, the remaining
52 accidents are well distributed among
other industries.
Mining claimed six and outfitting of
ships six, and railroad construction six.
The industries in which three deaths
occurred from accidents are paper man
ufacturing, grading, , steamboats and
electric light plants. ,
Dredging, work in foundries, box
manufacture, street paving, tunneling,
bridgebuilding and forest patrol aro ail
fairly safe occupations as but one fatal
accident occurred tho past year in each.
One hundred eighty widows are now
receiving pensions from the accident
fund and 305 orphaned Children. Last
year 25,288 accidents occurred in the
state. For medical aid, compensation
for lost time and also set aside for pen
sions for maimed workmen, and -the
widows and orphans of workmen, tho
state accident commission paid out last
year' the sum of $1.635,144.

joreign onice has issued two Bttto
meats dealing with loans to China by
the government and by private cap
italists. Tho statement in regard to
government loans says:
"Mischievous reports of Japanese ao
tivities in China, more particularly with
regard to tho granting of loans, havo
for some timo past been in circulation
and have imputed to tho Japaneso gov
ernment intentions which are entirely
foreign to it. For obvious reasons, the
Japanese government cannot undortakj
to discourage financial and economic
enterprises of thcir nationals in China,
so long as those enterprises aro the
natural and legitimate outgrowth of
special relations between tho two
neighboring and friendly nations. Nor
is tho Japanese government at all re
ceding from its readiness to render
needed financial assistance to China,
consistently with the terms of all tho
declarations and engagements to hich
it is a party, should tho general secur
ity and welfare of China call for such
assist unco,
t the samo time, it fully realizes
mat loans supplied to China, under tho
existing conditions of domestic strifo in
that country, are liablo to create mis
understandings on tho part of either of
tlio contending tactions and to inter
fere with tho re-establishment of peace
and unity in China, s0 essential to her
own interests as well as to tho interests
of tho foreign powers.
Withhold Assistance.
"Accordingly, the Japaneso govern
ments decided to withhold such finan
ciul assistance t0 China, as is likelv. in
its opinion, to add to tho complications
of her internal situation, believing thu-t
rango for tho convenience of the cap
italists so that thev will bo able to
consult directly with tho department of
