FLIES IN THE OINTMENT for flies that spread disease in and
around Indian reservations are these young Indian sanitation stu
dents. They’re checking fly larvae near Phoenix, Arizona.
Old Customs Are Overhauled As
Indians Tackle Sanifation Job
BY HOWARD DEWALD
NEA Special Correspondent
PHOENIX, Ariz—(NEA)—The
Indian medicine men better brace
themselves. ‘Their centuries-old
customs are about to collide with
eager young tribesmen full of new
ideas,
A dozen Indians from ten great
tribes are being trained here to
begin the first full-scale sanitation
progranr ever undertaken on U. S.
Indian reservations. They're out to
lick the bad sanitation that makes
the life expectancy of an Indian in
Arizona, {for example, only 23
years.
The U. S. Indian Service has
been appalled for years by this
high mortality rate on the reser
vations. Limited attempts by In
dian Service men to correct bad
sanitation have always Dbeen
blocked by Indian customs and
their ancient.habits of living.
The ratio of Indian deaths to
white men is 12 to 1 from typhoid,
6 to 1 from tuberculosis, 5 to 1
from diarrhea, and 4 to 1 from
pneumonia. Most of those dis
eases on the reservations can be
traced directly to bad sanitation,
says Dr. J. J. Lull, an Indian
Service nredical director.
The students in the eight-week
sanitation course have been hand
picked by tribal councils of the
Cheyenne of North Dakota, Chip
pewa of Minnesota, Sioux of South
Dakota, United Pueblo of New
Mexico, Blaskfeet of Montana,
Navajo of New Mexico and Ari
zona, and Apache, Hopi, Papago
and Pima, all of Arizona.
The will return to the home
lands of the greater part of Am
erica’s 400,000 reservation-dwell
ing Indians to preach the gospel
of scientific sanitation.
So conscientiously’ did the tribal
councils attempt to select men of
high character for training that
one tribe did not send a student
| to the school. The council told the
Indian Service it interviewed 16
young men and found “none could
be trusted about drinking.”
The students know their jobs
won't be easy. They’ll have to
| convince the elder tribesmen of
| the necessity of constructing sand
| filters for water supplies, simple
| sewage disposal systems, sanitary
| privys, sanitary wells, and the
need for sanitary food handling
practices. ~
They will have to take long
trips from the desert to the moun~
tains and from the villages to the
lonely outposts, in schools, and at
tribal meetings. They'll have to
cajole their fellow tribesnren into
changing the habits of centuries.
Joe Medina of United Pueblos
from Albuquergue, N. M., won
ders, “How can I ever convince the
people those corrals around the
| pueblos are bad for sanitation?”
Another student is worried
| about a certain medicine man’s
reaction when he starts explain
ing “all this business about
germs.”
But H. E. Sgan, a U. S. Public
Health Service education special
ist, is confident his pupils can do

ed Nations strung along the 155-
mile battle front and in reserve.
“They are throwing a lot more
artillery shells than they ever
have, There are points on the
front where they think nothing of
throwing in concentrations of
1,000 rounds and more. In other
words, they are being pretty lib
eral with their shells so they must
have plenty of them.”

the job. “They’re highly intelli
gent students. They know how to
concentrate and want to master
this subject.”
The class spends days on some
of the field trips, like one to the
Pima Indian reservation on the
desert near Sells, Arizona, where
students were amrused to find the
well they were working on had
been dry for years.
The young Indians feel they’ll
get co-operation on the reserva
tions. Their biggest difficulty,
they say, will be translating the
white man’s sanitation terms into
Indian language.
Charleston Gardens
CHARLESTON, S. C. (Special)—
Charleston’s world - famous gar
dens, whose blooms are anxiously
awaited each year by thousands
of travelers and gardens,-lovers,
are expecting their peak season be
tween March 15th and 31st.
This year’s full bloom is about
two weexs ahead of normal, main
'ly because of the generally mild
lwinter. Residents along the East
ern Seaboard each year wait for
the gardens’ full bloom, which
enables them to arrange their
stops in Charleston at the most
promising time.
. Magnelia, Cypress and Middle
ton Gardens, while specializing in
' horticultural beauty, each offers
lthe visitor something diffrent. At
Magnolia, one finds what has been
described as, “the world’s most
beautiful gardens”. At Middleton,
the attraction centers around
“America’s outstanding and oldest
landscaped gardens”. And at Cy
press, mysterious waterways and
lagoons are lined with thousands
of different bulbs.
Although each garden has its
own individual claim-to-fame, all
three have a popular common de
nominator: the amazing azaleas,
now bursting into brilliant bloom.
Ordinarily, the peak azalea bloom
comes in April. However, because
of the earlier bloom, visitors may |
also see a few late camellias which |
are still lending their amazing
color variety to t%e scene.
Magnolia’s C. Norwood Hastie,
jr., says azalea bushes are bloom= |
ing every day. he also points to
the colorful forsythia, spirea, pearl
flowers and red bud (Judas) trees.
“Native South Carolinians” says
Mr. Hastie, “each year wait for our
forecast of a full bloom before
visiting the gardens. While we are l
expecting a great influx the last
two weeks of March, we notice'
that overall tourist travel is up
over last year”. i
J. J. Pringle Smith of Middleton |
Gardens is also forecasting his
peak bloom for the final tweeks of
March. Acclaimed to be America’s
outstanding landscaped gardens,
Middleton now has open for visit
ors a section which has lain dor
mant since the War Between the
States. The first camellias to be
planted in America by the French
hotanist Andre Michaux, arve at|
Middletorr. Three of the original
four are stilt in existence, although
M. Michaux would have trouble
recognizing them because of their |
trmendous growth. |
At Cypress Gardens, B. R. Kit- ‘
tredge. jr., reports a great variety
of bulbs. Several years ago, an '
entire railroad carload of lily bulbs i
was planted along the fringe of |
the inky waters. Today, thousands
of different bulbs are blooming,
with narciss vying for honors with
the lilies. Of course, one of the'
main attractions at Cypress con- |
tinues to be the virgin Cypress |
waterways, giving that “other
atmosphere. I
Two years ago, the three gardens |
reached their peak bloom 30 days |
early, constituting somewhat of a i
record. This year, the owners !
think the bloom itself will be a
record. !
