i . tergood, after a little more than a QUAKERS DIREE INDIN AFFARS Rhoads Have Become Known as “Those Indian Twins.” By the Associated Press. Commissioner Rhoads of Indian Af- | fairs and his assistant, J. Henry Scat- month in office, have become known in the Interior Department as “those In- dian twins.” The title was applied after Mr. Rhoads and Mx. Scattergood placed their desks side by side, and any one wishing to disclose or otherwise deal | with the Indian problem found him- self talking to two smiling Quakers who did not address any one as “thee or | thou.” but inevitably referred to them- selves as “we."” | “Henry and 1" Mr. Rhoads explains, “have been working together for years. So when we came here he became my associate, not assistant, and we intend to take advantage of each other’s abil- ity, what little we have.” Learning Rapidly. Neither he nor his “associate” knows as much about Indian affairs as they would like to, he confesses, but that they are “learning very rapidly from a | great many sources.” | ‘The new Indian head does not believe | that tne Indian problem can be settied | and Scattergood | in a day. He holds that it is a long series of individual problems that should be settled as they arise, with the | policy ever in mind that the Indian should be made self-supporting and a | responsible citizen as soon as possible. | “Associate” Commissioner Scatter- | good, Who believes with his chief that | the Indian problem deserves “a lot of work and study over a considerable | period of time,” does most of the ques- | tioning when there is a hearing in the | commissioner’s office. He knows what | Mr. Rhoads wants to find out, so he de- votes his time to bringing out those | points while his “twin” carefully listens | or makes notes. | ‘Worked Together in Belgium. “Charlie and I have been associated | fogether in a good many ways,” Mr. beattergood recalls. “We worked to- | geiner on the Friends' relief in Bel- gium, and we are now on the board of | trustees of Bryn Mawr College.” | Secretary Wilbur has recommended | that the two new Indian commissioners | retain their interest in Bryn Mawr, ai- though both offered to give up the con- nection when they took office. The In- | terior Department head told them that | such interests would “go a long way | toward keeping any one from becoming & bureaucrat.” “So,” said Mr. Rhodes, “I am still vice president of the Bryn Mawr trustees, and Henry is the secretary and treasurer. It may help us from becom- ing bureaucrats. I certainly hope so, fer if we did 1t would be very sad.” CUMBERLAND IN PROTEST OF ELECTRIC CO. CHARGES EFFIE MAE WINSLOW, Greenville, N.

Among the protestants were J. Homer Cordry, apartment house owner, who had ® hot | exchange with Mayor Thomas W. Koon, former Police and Fire Commi sioner J. Alfred Reid, Thomas Ham- mersmith and Charles F. McFerran. The controversy was so warm that Mayor Koon said that, while he would be glad to take the matter up with the Potomac Edison Co., he did not want the council insulted and, slurred as being “under ths control” of the electric company. ‘The new installation, which the pro- testants declared was unnecessary and costly, is sald to prevent consumers from “stealing electricity,” which is possible under the old system of wiring. It was brought out that the new type conduit for electric installation brought & reduced rate on fire insurance.
