Ickes. The candidates are said to include William Paul of Ju- neau and Frank Peratrovich of Klawock. It was explained that while the initial super- vision is in the hands of only one person, it would ultimate- ly require the employment of several others. OLD WHEELER-HOWARD ACT The Indian Reorganization Act |’s the old Wheeler-Howard Act and jextends to.the JIndians of Alaska the right to form business and other organizations; to establish a credit tystem for Indians; grants certain rights of home rule; provides for vocational education for the In- dians and other privilezes. Under it loans may be made to Indians chartered corporations for the pur- pose of promoting the economic de- velopment of such tribes a.d the.. 1embers and not to exceed $59,000, vill be available for making loas to Indian students in high schock nd colleges. In brief, the Indians will be allowed much the same com~ aunity organizalion privileges as the while man, under the super- vision eof the Interior Department. Reported Approved Paul went to Washington in con- rection with the matter several months ago and has been connect- cd with the Indian Office there. Unconfirmed reports here state he las been approved for the new post L'y Commissioner Collier. Since his ceparture for the east, Paul, who tome months was temporarily sus- pended from the practice of law, l:as been charged in Federal District court with “willful deceit and gross misconduct” in an action asking his disbarment as an attorney. The ac- tion was brought by Assistant Dis- trict Attorney George Folta. Paul is reported to have left Washington June 11 to return to Juneau.
