For Red Men's Independence
BY PETER EDSON
NEA Washington Correspondent
WASHINGTON.—(NEA)—For the first time in
American history, there is now a possibility that the
U. S. government will eventually be able to get out
oi the business of taking care of the American
Indian, ;
This may not transpire for another 25 or 50 years.
But as of today a start has been made.
Indian affairs in western Oregon mray be turned
over to that state within a year or two, if a few
pending legislative matters can be put through. In
California there is hope that Indian affairs can be
liquidated within three to fve years. Utah has a
three-year transition programn under way.
Fourteen other states are somewhat farther be
hind, but working on the problem.
All this did not just happen. It is the result of a
deliberately planned policy, encouraged and sup
ported by Congress.
Its aim is to quit considering the down-beaten
descendants of the red man as perpetually poverty
stricken wards of the government in Washington.
The aim now is to make the Indian stand on his
own feet like any other independent, respectable,
native-born citizen.
This program has received considerable impetus
since Dillon S. Myer became Commissioner of In
dian Affairs in the Department of Interior, two
years ago. Myer has had unique experience in the
past 10 years dealing with minority group prob
lems and underdeveloped problem children.
He was head of the War Relocation Authority,
which handled the American Japanese so well dur
ing teh war. Then he was made president of Insti
tute of Inter-American Affairs. i
This is the government corporation which man
ages techmical assistance programs on a cooperative
basie with Latin-American countries. He left that
to tackle the Indian problenr.
EASY WAY IS THE WORST WAY
The easy thing to do in managing Indian affairs
is to shut ’em up in a reservation, give ’em a blan
ket a year, provide food rations sufficient to live
on, then let ’em alone.
That way they, contract tuberculosis at an alarm
ing rate, live in primitive slum conditions and
Qgradually die off. 0
This has been the result of U. S. government In
dian policy for most of the past 150 years. This
policy has been based on the belief that the Indian
was no good to start with and never would amount
to anything good.
Under this policy, the Indians for generations
were exploited out of everything except their cop
per-colored skins. The only white men in whom the
Indians came to place any trust at all were repre
sentatives of the Washington government.
The hard thing to do is trying to make the Indian
' into a useful citizen. Given equal opportunity, says
Dillon Myer, the Indian will develop on about the
same ratio as any other race.
In the five civilized tribes of eastern Oklahoma,
it was found that 7 percent had a high living stand
ard, 44 percent were middle class, 27 percent in a
low income group and 22 percent were sub-stand
ard and mostly on relief.
The Osages, with their oil lands, have their mil
lionaires. The Navajos, overcrowded on extremely
unproducfive land, are probably the worst off of
any tribe. An emigration problem here is necessary.
But a couple of sawmills and other new industries
are helping. -
Santa Fe, Union Pacific and other employers are
finding that the Indians make good workmen, more
dependable than many others. In short, the Indian
can be rehabilitated from sloth and savagery.
INDIANS SCATTERED FROM ALASKA
TO EVERGLADES :
There are today between 400,000 and 450,000
American Indians. They are scattered all the way
from the Everglades of Florida to Point Barrow,
Alaska. They are organized in some 6 200 tribal
groups. Their affairs are administered by 64 U. S.
government Indian agencies.
Strangely enough, it is the Indifns themselves,
particularly the older ones, who are opposed to be
: ing turned loose by the government and made in
dependent. They feel a certain sense of security in
having their affairs protected and managed by the
government.
The 56 mrillion acres of Indian lands are held in
trust by the Secretary of Interior. Law and ordér
are maintained by the federal government. Public
roads, irrigation and utilities on Indian lands are
run by U. 8. government agencies. The Bureau of
Indian affairs has run Indian s chools, hospitals
and welfare services.
Social security for the Indians is now being han
died as for all cother citizens. Commissioner Myer
is of the opinion that the federal government should
perform no service that can be carried on as effec
tively and as cheaply by state and local government.
And there will have to be ample protection for
the Indians in this tramsition period, to assure that
. they are met again exploited as they were so merci
. Jessly in the past.
Chiang Kai-shek Would Need
Ou :id Before Marching
r Aid Before March
Chiang Kai-shek’s Nationalist arnvies are in the
spotlight again, as new proposals are made to “take
the wraps off” them and let them attack the Chi
nese mainland,
Henry Lieberman, New York Times correspond
ent who ably mans the Horg Kong listening post,
has observed the Nationalist forces stationed on
Formosa. He concludes that, whatever our intent,‘
Chiang’s men are not now ready to launch any
large-scale amphibious assault on the mainland, |
Professional guesses as to when the Nationalists
will be prepared vary from six months ot two
years, and all estimrates assume the United States
would furnish needed arms and other supplies, not
to mention air and naval support.
Indeed, says Lieberman, Chiang has not yet com
pleted programs looking toward the effective de
fense of Formosa against Communist attack. This
task is naturally conceived to be easier than launch
ing an invasion across 100 miles of open water,
The Nationalist infantry force totals around 400,-
009, about three-fourths of these being foot soldiers.
While this is a sizable number, not all could be
committed to an overseas attack. Many would have
to garrison Formosa.
The experts appear to feel 100,000 to 200,000 rep=
resents what Chiang might throw against the main
land. ;
But even this force could not essay a landing
without American aid. The Nationalist navy is a
minor affair. Its air force is inferior even to the
Chnese Communist contingent, and it might also
have to face Russian-manned planes in such an
attempt.
As indicated, too, Chiang would require U. S.
equipment and continuous supplies before a man
could march.
With the best of aid the adventure would still be
a trenvendous risk, Communist armies in position to
meet a Nationalist landing are vastly greater in
number than Chiang’s. The Reds have not been idle.
Their coastline bristles with fortifications, and is
shielded by radar. ¢
Any forecast that the mainland Chinese would
rise in revolt as the Nationalists hit the beach is
pure conjecture. Red police control on the main
land is rigid. No one knows whether any rebellion
could take shape. Or, for that matter, whether the
mainland folk would welcome Chiang’s armies.
It is notable that none of this analysis reflects on
the quality of Chiang’s troops. Lieberman declares
thenr to be generally good, though the combat vet
erans are aging and getting rusty from lack of bat
tle activity.
We have 350 to 400 Arnry, Air Force and Naval
personnel on Formosa training Chinese Nationalist
soldiers. Training is said to have been stepped up
recently. But our shipments of military materiel to
Formosa lag behind schedule, as they do in other
regions of the world.
The important thing that emerges from a cold,
factual study of CHiang’s armies is that using them
is not simply a matter of “taking the wraps off.” As
they exist today, they are probably capable of only
small hit-and-run raids on lightly defended coastal
sectors.
This does not mean the Nationalists are unim=
portant. It means their potential must be viewed
realistically, They do not represent a cure-all for
our troubles in Korea and the rest of Asia. They are
only one cloudy factor in an amazingly complex
Asiatic picture.

National FFA Week
“I believe in the Future of Farming” begins the
creed of the Future Farmers of America and synr
bolizes an organization of boys who are studying
vocational agriculture in public high zchools
throughout the nation.
The concepts of American purpose as enunciated
by the Future Farmers of America have won wide
acceptance, and today the FFA nas more than 330,-
000 members affiliated with 8,000 high school chap
ters in the 48 states, Hawaii and Puerto Rico. Spon
sored by the Agricultural division of the State De
partment of Education and by high school depart
ments of vocational agriculture, the advisors for
local chapters are specially trained agriculture
teachers. FFA is a non-profit, non-political farm
boy organization with voluntary membership.
Future Farmers today study vocational agricul
ture with the definite purpose of becoming good
farmers. They have supervised farming programs
at home where they put their classroom learning
into actual practice.
National FFA Week is observed in February be
cause it is the anniversary of the birth of George
Washington, who is generally considered to have
been America’s first scientific farmer. FFA believes
Washington was better able to serve his country
because, as a resourceful farmer, he was financially
independent, -
We take this occasion—National FFA Week—to
salute these young men who believe in the future of
farming, The Future Farmers of America.
I believe that Russia would not be able to long
stand such a policy. It would probably result in re
lieving Soviet aggression throughout the world.—
Alf Landon, on his proposal of a blockade of all
Iron Curtain countries.
It (government corruption) comes right back to
the citizen on the outside. If a government man
takes a pay-off, there has to be somebody from the
commmunity handing it over.—Federal Judge Tho
mas F. Murphy.

long to write a song and because
it doesn’t take any talent.”
Allen estimates amateur song
writers comprise a larger group
with special interests than any
other, except possibly horse play
ers.
“For almost all of these people,
there is no hope that their songs
will ever be published,” he con
tinued. “There is no other field so
firmly closed so newcomers.
| There’s about one chance in 100,-
000 that an amateur’s song will
be published.”
Allen is pretty well qualified on
a number of scores to discuss the
problem of the unsung, unpub
l lished songwriter. For one thing
R T »
‘he’s master of eeremonies of u|’
network television show, “Songs
for Sale.” |
Each week the songs of four
unknowns are picked for presenta=
tion, and each is given an expen
sive, elaborate production with
vocals by a big-name singer, It is
somewhat significant that after
almost two years of operation,
during which hundreds of new
songs have been launched, not a
single one has hit the nation’s top
ten song lists.
“That,” said Allen, “will give
you some idea of the problems—
and remember that most of these
have been good songs. Most ama
teur songs aren’t good.”
One Percent Considered
The show now is receiving be
tween 1,500 and 2,000 song man
uscripts each week, a figure which
occasionally rises as high as 5,000.
Ot these, about one per cent are
culled as possibilities. The rest
are returned with a polite rejec
tion slip. The one per cent is
further whittled.
“It's so easy to write a song—
it’s not easy to write a good song,
of course—that the supply is al
ways much sgreater than the de
mand,” Allen continued.
Study and Practice
