Dimond providing for the purchase {of non-native owned reindeer in :Alaska and distribution of the same | among the natives, and a similar |* i bill introduced by Senator Thomas of Oklahoma, which passed the f Senate |sidered this week by the House | Committee on Territories. | The Delegate’ made an extended | statement to the committee; point- ing out the advisability of taking action for the relief of the natives |of northwestern Alaska and for a wider distribution of reindeer (among all of the natives of Alaska, including those of the Alaska Pen- | insula, the Aleutian Islands, and {also some of the natives of South- east Alaska, particularly the Met- | lakatlans who have heretofore made a request for reindeer for their use. Senate Amendments The Senate bill included a num- ber of amendments recommended | by the Department of the Interior which the Delegate strongly op- posed. In the Senate the provisions |of the bill as dawn by the Delegate limiting the time within which the purchase should be made, except under court proceedings, to one year, and limiting the price to be paid on the average to $3 per head, were stricken ouyt. Before the House Committee the Delegate pointed out the advantages of these provisions as well as others in the original bill. Particular stress was -placed by the Delegate on Section 11 of the House bill, and of the original Senate bill, which author- izes the natives in the first in- stance to draw the rules and regu- lations for the government of the range and to6 submit the same to the Secretary of the Interior for 1approval. That section was strick- len out in the Senate. | Collection of Fees ‘The Delegate further objected to ,an amendment to the bill made in the Senate providing for the col- {lection of fees for the use of the range. At the conclusion of the hearing the Delegate offered a | further amendment providing that the bill should not be effective at all unless and until at least $1,- 000,000 of the appropriation. author- ized should be actually appropriat- ed and available for expenditure. | The House Committee ordered a | favorable report on the Senate bill much the same as passed by the Senate omitting all imitations of timé and price with respect to the purchase of the reindeer, omitting | also Section 11 which was designed |to give the natives a large degree | of home-rule with regard to rules and regulations. This section was omitted because of the statement of the department that the proced- ure therein indicated would prob- ably be adopted in any event to the extent that the natives would be fully consulted and their wishes ascertained before any rules and regulations were promulgated and that Section 11 as drawn might make it impossible to change rules and regulations to meet changing cohditions and' preserve the range.
