"Yanishing American" Rapidly Increasing, Says Indian Expert
Albert B. Reagan Attribute Improved Living Conditions to Education
(Colman Curvilan)
Cornfields, N. M., Jan. 18—"Poet Leo" is far from being a "Vanishing American," and romantic sympathy directed toward him is largely wanted, according to Albert B. Kiesler, who grew among various tribes of the American Aborigines for many years. There are at present, he states, 340,550 Indians in the United States, an increase of 10 percent, approximately 4.8 per cent in ten years.

The Navajo of the Southwest, commonly thought of as the tribe most rapidly dying out, show themselves to be one of the most rapidly increasing tribes in the United States in 1863, but now muter a roll of about 38,000. The Choroches of North Carolina show the most rapid increase during recent years, swelling their numbers by 85% or more than 40 per cent in less than fifteen years. Other tribes, especially in the west, are reported to be in flourishing condition, the largest number naturally being in the southwestern United States ill-founded Tribes alone total over 100,000.
In 1775, the Continental Congress expended $600 for the schooling of the Indian youth at Dartmouth College, and the year closing about $8,600,000 was spent in the instruction of 67,000 Indian children, where medical supervision is attended to with great care, both in caring for them and in teaching them the laws of health and sanitation. In addition, the government introduced modern sanitary methods of living into the Indian homes.
Mr. Reagan credits the medical and educational activities of the U. S. Government with most of the improvement in the status of the Indians. In 1882, he says, there was only one hospital where they were five, and in 1952, eight. These gave treatment to approximately 28,000 Indians. On reservations, besides the medical aid and treatment given the Indians by the school and agency people, there also are now 40 field matrons, 135 nurses, and 181 physicians, besides eye, nose, and ear pathologists, and seven travel doctors.
Prohibition Anniversary Finds Smuggling Rif
In a center of a whirlpool of public controversy, political and otherwise, prohibition celebrated its eighth birthday in the United States Sunday.
On the anniversary government undercover agents were completing the investigation of a dozen large amugring rings, representing a capitulation of close to $10,000,000. One ring is said to be operating on a payroll of $1,000,000 a month. Profits of the various rings are said to be enormous. Exides the money offered to officials is in the hands of the authorities.
Details of smuggling rings will be presented to federal grand juries within the next few months, according to officials.
Most of the evidence was obtained through government "spokenness" in New York and other large cities. Many were reported to attack the attack from the congressional wets.
Most of the liquor conspiraries center in New York. A few operating on the Gulf and Pacific coasts and Chicago are under investigation.

Experts to Study Water Filtration

problems of construction and main tenance of adequate municipal supplies for the present.
"Some Developments in Water Purification Practice," was the subject discussed by L. B. Mangun, chemist at the filtration plant of Kansas City, Kan. J. L. Barron, the last speaker for the afternoon, told of the common defects in filtration plant operations.
The evening program will start at 6:30 at the Thimble Tea room, with the Kansas Water Works Association's annual dinner and business meeting. H. A. Rice, secretary of the Kansas Water Commission will speak with students from the Kansas Water Commission." The meeting will close with a film showing the Milwaukee activated shingle disposal plant.
Speakers for the occasion were C. T. Hough, Lawrence city engineer, and Dr. G. F. Gilkerson, manager of the Kansas City, 510, water purification plant. Mr. Hough explained the history of the plant which the convention visited this morning. He said that when the plant was put in use eight years ago it was designed for the pumping of well water, but the growth of Lawrence and the exhausting of the well water could be reused to be river to be used in the filtration plant. It has been six years since any water from wells was pumped into the plant and consequently the city has been contending with a serious problem of purifying the river water. The present plant consists of preliminary basins, conculatory basins, reactionary basins, and mixing plants. Doctor Gilkerson had illustrated his point with his talk, showing step by step the process in which the new Kansas City works was completed. It was not necessary for Kansas City to rebuild entirely, because much of the old equipment is still useful. The new plants are the old Quindare and floor water plants.
According to the Kansas City engineer, the plant now under construction will serve the community, make a corporate allowance for growth until 1942.
A motion picture by the Layne-Bohlin Corporation on "The History of Water," an orchestra furnished by the Theta Tau engineering fraternity, and refreshments served by the program committee concluded the program.
Re-utilization of Old Newsprint Now Possible
Berlin, Jan. 18.—Cheaper paper through re-utilization of old newspaper is no longer hypothetical but possible according to the German chemists Dr. K. Stephan and Dr. E. W. Albrecht who have been experimenting in this field. But it is dependent, they say, upon reimbursing the familiar carbon ink in favor of deep fast black inks. Carbon ink cannot be removed safely as carbon is resorbed and resorbed readily to treatment with very dilute sulphuric acid and vanished, leaving the paper ready for use.
(Salence Service)
Berlin newspapers have been quick to take advantage of the results of a study in which they used the decolorized paper. As soon as the decolorization process is carried on on a large scale, newspaper costs are reduced to 20 per cent, Doctor Stephan believes.
