THE EVENING STAR, WASHINGTON, D. €, FRIDAY, FEBRUARY T35, 1929." BURKE FORESEES DN PROGRES Commissiorier Says Increas- " ing Number of Tribes Suc- ceed at Farming. v Great progress in the solution of the 'preblems of the Indians is foreseen in the next few years by Charles H. Burke, commissioner of Indian af-| falrs, who issued & . statement today asserting ihat the Indians, “more than ever before, are now ready to respend to efforts in their behalf on the parl‘ of the Government.” Mr. Burke said | he based his statement on reports, | conferences and personal observations | in the field. “On practically every reservation re= « ports show an increasing number of Indians who have never farmed before, how making a determined attempt, and almost invariably with a considerable degree of succes to till the soil and + care for domestic «nd rance live stock. “These individual cases are a con- stant demonstration to others of the benefits of self-effort and are provid- ing the incentive to go and do likewise, “The awakening of the Indians to the need for individual effort on their own part, however, is the opening of the door of opportunity to the Indian service, and it means increased activity on our part if we are to adequately direct and assist this newly aroused interest. Modern, up-to-date methods must be used to keep up the interest, “Definite programs for the ssason's work must be outlined. Chapter organ- ization must be reorganized and new ones formed where necessary, The 4- H Club work and the women's aux- iliaries must play their part. The white people of the community must be brought to a realization of their regponsibility for a definite part in the program. Advantage must be. taken of the willingness of icultural ex- tension workers, both State and Fed- erpl, to render trained assistance in organization problems, Surveys must be made to get the information noces- sapy to enahle us to give needed ad- vige, or material assistance to indi- vidual or famlly efforts.” Army Transfers Ordered.

WHO BRAVED DEATH ALONE ON SHIP, MAY GET REWARD Salvage for Remaining With Battered Vessel May Go to Man Rescued by Coast Guard. By the Assoclated Press. SEATTLE, Wash, February 15— James L. Posey of Seattle, dubbed “the mad oiler of the Alloway,” who staked his life against a storm and stuck with his ship after the rest of the crew had deserted her off the Aleutian Islands, may reap a small fortune because of his Taken off the Alloway last night by the Coast Guard cutter Chelan, Posey was examined by the Chelan’s physician and found to be physically and mentally sound. With the gale subsiding, a few members of the Chelan’s crew boarded the Alloway, whose anchor held her a few yards off the rocks of Alktak Is- land, in the Aleutian Arclupew. Fire was started under the ship's jers and pr?v‘nrbflons made to guide her to safety. Not far distant another abandoned ship, the Japanese freighter Maiyo Maru, which had attempted to aid the Alloway, was drifting with the tide. The 25 members of her crew were en route to Japan aboard the rescuer vessel, the Nankoh Maru. | The Alloway, a freighter, carrying a | cargo of 1,000,000 feet of lumber and | 600 tons of wheat, was bound for Japan | to be scrapped when the storm over- took her last week. Attempts of the| steamers Bronnoy and Montauk to tow | her were unsuccessful. Tuesday night| all of the crew except Posey took to lifeboats and were picked up by the Montauk.

Posey located the emergency radio set of the Alla and, without experience in_operating it, managed to keep the air full of meaningless dots and dashes for two days. Meanwhile, the Chelan went to his rescue. ‘The amount of salvage to which Posey may be entitled, if any, is indefinite. Marine lawyers said his claim would be valid if he could prove that he had helped to save the ship by staying aboard.
