Bauer, being drafted to run as Independent Candidate for Chief of the East ern Band of Cherokee Indians: and Arnold Cooper, likewise being drafted to run for Vice Chief of the Cherokees. on an Independent Ticket, subject to the will of the voters in the coming Tribal Election, wish to submit to the voters the following Platform: 1. Wc were not candidates. We were not seeking an office. It was not our desire to be candidates; but we have been requested and drafted, by a very large portion of the members of the Eastern Band of Cherokees, and we have accepted. And, in doing so, we offer the following Platform, which, if elected, we will do our utmost to carry out: 2. It is our desire to see every member of the Eastern Band rerceive equal treatment with any other member of the Band, and with every other white citizen of the State of North Carolina. We do not believe in discriminatory laws. 3. We believe in Freedom of the Indians. 4. We do not believe in unfair and unjust taxation of our people, in the form of Stump age, or in any other way. as is the case now; and we will work to relieve this situation. 5. We are strongly opposed to the so-call ed Wheeler-Howard Act, and will work to re lieve our people of this unfair and ridiculous law. 6. We are opposed to Allotment of Indian Lands, as was proposed" in 1924 ;an<J it is our desire to have titles and deeds for our lands back in the hands of the Eastern Band; for we fee that, with lands, whoever holds the deed, lawfully owns the lands, even though the deed was obtained upon a false promise. 7. It is our desire, and It will be our policy, to encourage private enterprise, of every description, to the end that all of our members of the Eastern Band shall be gain fully employed here at home, upon their own lands. , It will be our policy to encourage the development of the Qualla Indian Boundary. Wc would like to see our potential tourist re sources developed until unsurpassed by any similar resort area. And, we believe that it can be done. 8. It is our desire and policy to cooperate with the counties of Jackson and Swain, and with the State of North Carolina, to the extent that our people will have the respect of all our neighboring citizens. We do not approve such statements as have been current in the press, over the past year, that our people are not capable of standing on their own feet. We feel that the vast majority of the Members of the Eastern Band are intelligent people, and are equal to any other people. 9. It will be our policy, to. and we will aid all of our old people. First, by Old Age As sistance: and Second, by help from the Band. 10. We will not accept any job from the Government, so long as we serve the Eastern Band of Cherokees. as their elected representa tives. We do not believe that you can serve two-masters at the same time. 11. Our policy will be business admini stration of the affairs of the Eastern Band, upon sound principles. 12. This Platform is that of, and has been adopted by the Independent Ticket. It is our desire that the voters give us a Council that will cooperate in a Progressive Administration of the affairs of the Eastern Band. To all those who agree: Vote for F. B. Bauer, for Chief, and Arnold Cooper, for Vice Chief. This Platform we submit tp YOU in all confidence that It will mee't with the approval of all interested and thinking people.
