Indian Land Bill Okayed
By Interior Dept. Group
The Cherokee Indians this week
advanced another step in their ef
forts to bring more business to
their Reservation.
The Associated Press reported a
U. S. Interior Department sub
committee okay'd a Housc-aproved
bill which would authorize the leas
ing of part of the Reservation for
40 years for business purposes.
The lease on a small tract of
Indian land would be granted to
the Farmers Federation Cooperat
ive of North Carolina.
Federal law restricts the maxi
mum lease on Indian lands to ten
years This has been the major ob
stacle in efforts to establish new
business on the Reservation
Senators McFarland' of Arizona
and Lehman of New York, who at

form of the bill and said they
would submit it to the full com
mittee

farming more profitable for the

New Set Ol
Petitions
Needed For
Election
Judge J. Will Pless, of Marion, I
signed a restraining order Wednes
day afternoon, halting the wine and
beer election scheduled for Sep
tember 2nd here in Haywood.
Judge Pless held that the former
board of elections did not conform
with the technical points of the
law and advertise within 30 days
after calling the election last Feb
ruary. The board originally set
August 12th as the date for the
election.
Judge Pless, in direct answer to
a question by Rev. D. D. Gross, of
Clyde, said that in his opinion, new
petitions would have to be signed
in order to legally call the election.
By this action, Judge Pless ruled
that the second set of petitions,
upon which the board called the
election, were now null and void.
Rev. Mr. Gross answerd, by ex
plaining, "wo have secured two
petitions previously to this ask
Ing for an election on the question
of abolishing the legal sale of wine
and beer in Haywood, so I presume
we can get a third set, if neces
sary."
Judge Pless held the hearing In
his chambers in Murphy where he
Is holding court. .
J, R. Morgan and Glenn Brown
were attorneys appearing for the
pctltloneers, while W. Roy Francis
presented the case asking that a
restraining order be Issued. M. G.
Stamey, county attorney, repre
sented the present board of elec
tions. Judge Pless held that the pres
ent board had carried out all the
requirements of the law In detail,
and that the error took place at
the lime of filing the petition, in
that the election was not adver
tised within 30 days when called.
The present board took office in
April, and are C. E. Cole, Frank
D. Ferguson, Jr., and Charles
Hawkins.
Registration for the election be
gan last Saturday, and according
to Chairman Cole, the order com
ing at this time will save the coun
ty $144 per Saturday, since that
is the cost of registration.
The previous petitions were
sponsored by the Haywood Minis
terial Association, and approxi
mately 1,500 names of qualified
voters are required on the peti
tion in order for the board to call
an election.
Since the law provides that no
such election can be held within
sixty days of another election, Mr.
Cole said the earliest possible date
would be January 7th, since the
general election comes on Novem
ber 7th.
The Ministerial group will in all
probability take formal action at
an earlv date. .- ,
