Yates at a meeting there Sat- urday adopted resolutions protesting against consolidating of the Standing Rock agency with the Cheyenne River agency in South Dakota and the mov- ing of the agency headquarters to Mobridge, 8. D., which has been re- Ported in news dispatches from ‘Washington, Previous to the meeting telegrams had been sent to the office of Con- gressman Lemke at Washington ask- ing that he take steps to prevent the Proposed change and a reply was re- ceived from the congressman's secre- tary, W. O. Skeels, farmer assistant clerk of the Indian Affairs committee of the senate, stating that he had communicated with the office of In- dian Affairs, Department of the In- terior at Washingon, D. C., and been assured by the department that no change would be made without a hearing. Members of the Sioux tribe at Ft. Yates are very much disturbed over the proposed change and in the reso- lutions sent to President Franklin D. Roosevelt, Harold Ickes, secretary of the Interior, and John Collier, com- missioner of Indian Affairs, recite the fact that the government has ex- pended large sums of money in build- ing up the Ft. Yates agency by con- structing residences for officials, schools, dormitories, hospital, nurse’s home, agency doctor's residence, ete They also recite the fact that the Ft. Yates agency is a point of historical interest and the buryins place of such noted Indians as Sitting Bull, Rain- in-the-Face, Gall, Running Antelope. Goose, Bear Face, Crow King, Thun- der Hawk, Fire Heart, Grass, Charg- ing Bear, Two Bears, also Charles Galpin and Major James McLaughlin. The resolutions state that under the land grant agreement with certain railroads provision was made for re- duced passenger and freight rates ex- tending to the government and its various branches, including army, In- dian and other activities which affect ® material saving to the government and the Indians. It is understood that the matter will be brought at the tribal conference of Sioux tribes of North Dakota, South Dakota and Montana which will be held soon. The resolutions in part are as fol- lows: “Whereas, throughout the years the federal gcgernment has greatly im- proved the original site by establish- ing extensive agency buildings, all of brick or other permanent construc- tion, erected under government su- Ppervision, including offices, superin- tendent’s and other officials’ resi- Gences, schools, including dormitories, and recreation hall, a well equipped hospital, nurses’ home, and agency doctor's residence, large barns, ma- chinery sheds, blacksmith and ma- chine shops, carpenter shops, issue buildings and storage warehouses, modern water works system and ade- quate landing facilities on the river to receive coal, merchandise and other necessities, and “Whereas, at Fort Yates the Indians have established an extensive fair grounds, with exhibition buildings, grand stand, race track, rodeo cor- rals, and all other needed facilities, for their annual fair and other gath- erings; and there is located the seat of government of Sioux county, North Dakota, and the Standing Rock mon- ument, and “Whereas, efforts are being made by certain interests to locate the Stand- ing Rock agency away from the res- ervation, weere the Indians, who have been taught to stay at home and farm| would be put to great expense and lose much time traveling back and forth, and both government and In- dians would lose heavily by reason of the loss of treaty transportation ben- efits and duplication of buildings and facilities.” The resolutions are signed by Ben- jamin White, Basil Two Bears, Claude Kill Spotted and Alvin Warrior, rep- resenting the Indians on that portion of the reservation situated in North Dakota. Would Incorporate Community Center Articles of incorporation have been asked for from Secretary of State Robert Byrne by the Tobiason Lake’ association of Hatton. The associa- tion will improve lake property by building a community center and fair grounds in Steele county. JAMESTOWN LOSES Jamestown, N.

Railroad Commission Holds Bus Hearings President Fay Harding of the North Dakota Railroad commission left Monday morning for Edgeley, N. D., where he will conduct a ‘hearing on an application of George Schultz, of that town to operate a motor freight service. He will hold two hearings at Fargo, one Tuesday on the filing of @ new time schedule by the Canad- fan-American Transportation com- pany of Fargo to operate motor trans- Portation service between Fargo and Minot and intermediate points via Carrington. . TO HOLD SURCHARGE RATE HEARING HERE Interstate Commerce Commis- sion Worker to Sit in Freight Tariff Case A hearing on the application of railroads operating in North Dakota to retain present surcharges on intra- state traffic will be held at the fed- eral court room in Bismarck, next Saturday, July 22, before Examiner J. E. Smith of the Interstate Com- merce Commission. Following the hearing the matter will be argued orally before Examiner Smith and will be submitted without further Proceeding to the Interstate Com- Merce Commission. ‘The sucharges were put into effect by the Interstate Commerce Commis- sion on intrastate rates on March 7, 1932 and were to expire on March 31, 1933. The Interstate Commerce com- mission, on application of the car- riers, extended the order for six months or until Sept. 30, 1933. The North Dakota com held up the application of the rates as far as this state was concerned and a hearing was held on April 10 by the commis- sion. Before a decision could be an- nounced the carriers, on May 12, pe- titioned the Interstate Commerce Commission for a hearing alleging that the action of North Dakota and nine other states in refusing to com- ply with the order of the commission in granting an extension of the sur- charges was a discrimination against interstate commerce. ' A hearing was set by the Intrastate Commerce Commission for June 15, at Washington, D. C. but the North Dakota commission asked that the hearing be held up pending their de- cision. On July 3 the North Dakota commission announced their decision denying the increase or continuance of the surcharges and the hearing was then set for next Saturday. Sur- charges on interstate rates are still in effect and will expire Sept. 30 un- less they are further extended. The surcharges make a material increase in freight rates on intrastate shipments. The increase on lignite coal is 6 cents a ton and the same rate applies to sand and gravel. On less than carload shipments it amounts to 2 cents per hundred Pounds and one cent a gallon on gas- oline and lubricating oils. A large number of witnesses will be called/at the hearing here Saturday, including representative of lignite coal operators, traffic rate experts from Grand Forks, Fargo, Minot, Bis- marck and other cities, and shippers who are effected by the surcharges, {Stay of Extradition Is Granted by Judge Boston, July 17.—(?}—Judge George H. Bingham of the United States cir- THE BISMARCK TRIBUNE, MONDAY, JULY 17, 1933 MORTGAGE RELIEF FORNORTHDAKOTA IN SIGHT BY FALL Farm Credit Administration Schedules Work For Loan Appraisers Washington, July 17.—(?)—Farm mortgages held by closed and re- stricted banks in Minnesota will be Tefinanced immediately after the campaign to thaw. out Wisconsin mortgages is completed. The farm credit administration is Teported to be planning the transfer of its force of appraisers and other employes conducting the Wisconsin campaign to Minnesota late in the fall. After the Minnesota campaign is completed, it is tentatively plan- ned to send them into North Dakota. The plan provides for buying first mortgages held by closed and re- stricted banks and now is being put in operation in Illinois, Iowa and South Carolina in addition to Wis- consin, where the plan was first em- Ployed. The land banks are authorized to pay for each mortgage a sum not in excess of 50 per cent of the ap- praised normal value of the farm land and 20 per cent of the insured permanent improvements which form the security for the lien. A general scaling down of the farmers’ debts is expected to result. Teachers Colleges to Have Uniform Courses: Presidents of the five teachers col- lege in North Dakota, who met with Chairman Nelson Sauvain of the board of administration and Super- intendent of Public Instruction Arthur E, Thompson Friday and Saturday to decide upon a curriculum for next year that would eliminate unnecessary duplication of courses, decided to pub- lish a manual for all five colleges that would be more uniform and efficient than the former method of publish- ing separate manuals. Meeting with the presidents of the colleges, Chairman Sauvain and 8u- perintendent Thompson was Dr. I. F. Myers of New York university who has visited all the teachers colleges in the state and made a study of the courses of each school. Dr. Myers made several recommendations which will render more efficient the curri- cula of the colleges and make them more applicable to the needs of North Dakota students. The curriculum committee, consist- ing of the presidents of the colleges, Chairman Sauvain and Superintend- ent Thompson, will hold another meeting in October at which time it is planned to make still further changes in the courses to comply more fully with the law passed at the 1933 session of the legislature requir- ing the schools to avoid unnecessary duplication of courses.
