But they want to be compensated for land which they can prove was taken from them. These hearings have been harmful due to the fact that the Interior Department did not make their pur- {pose clear. The purpose still is not clear. You will | remember that the notices for the hearing talked | about “exclusive use and occupancy” by the Indians |of the lands and waters in question.

The order against vests with double- | breasted suits still stands, as does the edict forbidding two pairs of pants with one coat.
