NIANSPRESSNG S0 CLAM Census of Natives to Be Made | in California Preparatory to Suit Against U. S. A'suit that may involve $4,000,000 and | will be fought out in the Court of Claims here is scheduled to be tried soon, with the State of California bring- ing suit on behalf of the California Indians, as an aftermath of the great | gold rush of 1849. This was made known today at the Interior Depart- ment which announced that it will count the California Indians and set down on an official roll the names of those entitled to membership in the various bands and tribes of the adopted State of President-elect Herbert Hoover. An expert of the Bureau of Indian Af- fairs has just been dispatched to Cali- fornia to seck out those who are Indians in the task of cstablishing a record to dotermire who are entitled to partici- pate in any moneys that may accrue to the California_Indians. The Attorney General of California was authorized by Congress under an act of May 18, 1928, to bring sult in the Court of Claims, following more than half a cenfury of agitation by the In- dians of California for a settlement of their claims against the Government. Two rolls of the California Indians will be made under the direction of Secretary Roy O. West, one of those re- siding in the State, June 1. 1852, and of their descendants living there May 18, 1928, who have claims against the United States, based upon the so-called 18 unratified treatles with these In- dians, which were submitted to the Senate for ratification by the President on June 1, 1852, but failed to be rati- fied: and the other roll will be of all other Indians living in Califotnia on May 18, 1928. Claimants have two vears from May 18 Tast. in which to appiy for enrollment and the Interior Department expects that some 20,000 Indians in California will be duly enrolled. The claims of the California Indains will be presented to the Court, of Claims by petition by the State’s attorney general and this Is to be filed, under the legislation, within three years from passage of the act: The great gold rush of 1849, which took place two years prior to the nego- tiations of the treaties, will figure the litigation, for the gold-seekers are alleged to have overrun the Indians’ ands.

Cryder, one of the charter members of the Arts Club of Washlngton, presented two young sing- e distinguished American composer and a young accompanist in & program of songs at the club before a very en- singers were Emily Harrold, soprano, and Horace Smithey, baritone. The composer was Percy Lee Atherton, and the accompanist was' Hester Smiihey, The program of songs was excellentiy arranged. Quite the hit of the evening was the final number, B clever, so- phisticated piece of writing by the Frenchman, Messager, with fine English translation.’ It was called a swing song, | with the title “Veronique.” The singers | both seemed to become more at ease and themselves enjoy the singing of ti duet. Also, they knew the words per- fectly, By Tequest, the number was re- | peated. The voices blended very || pleasingly in this song. Miss Harrold achieved some artistic | effects in her first group of songs by | Schumann, Geni Sadero and Mme. Chaminade. However, she has not yet made these songs her own. She was more convineing in the group of Mr. Atherton’s charming pastel songs, with perhaps as the best in interpretation and originality, “Fly, Thistledown, Fly." | | Another lovely song was “Beloved, It was April Weather,” with words by a member of the Arts Club, Ednah Proc- tor Clarke Hayes. Miss Harrold's light Iyric voice was at its best, and she has charm of personality. Mr. Smithey has a true robusto bari- tone which showed to special advantage in De Taylor's “Captain Stratton's Fancy ‘Moon-Marketing,” by Weaver, was sung with lightness, due its whim- sicality, and the Oriental beauty of Shaw's “Song of the Palanquin Bear- ers” was sympathetically _presented. Spross’ tragic “In Flanders Fields” was sung with excellent restraint. Mr. Atherton was represented in this group, too, by a graceful song, “If I But Look Within Thine Eyes.” The Verdi air from “The Masked Ball,” which opened the program, was not suited to the size of the rooms, and the singer was far from his best vocally in this number. Mrs. Smithey proved an unusually artis- tic accompanist for her husband, and Mr. Atherton was excellent in that capacity, accompanying both singers in his own songs and Miss Harrold in her first group, too.
