of i?ere? between Arimda Lockkar
Tuscarom National in 1974. Maynor
Vs Morton la my opmioa I would
like to know why toe did not com
hack to toe Tuscan** Naboa and
bow what toe Dept of toe Interior
drafted to toe B I A by tone panel
judges that ruled that Morton waa
unconstitutional against the
out that Tans Tureen a lawyer from
Calls. Maine, waa uproar ating the
caae (Mavnor vs. Morton) and
.ayttitod through toe court and
agreed with toe jixl^ev that he would
see that a constitution with an
agreeanent wito toe "necareea Nation
would be drafted oat and a settlement
would be reached.
The Tuecaroras did not know that
Ailiade Locfclear was in the picture at
this time to Draft a const it ut ion in
1974 But toe came down in 197S to
toe Tuscan** Nation to draft their
constitution The Tuscawras denied
her "because" toe did not have a
resolution from the clerk of the court
from Washington *X" or from Tom
Tureen. The Indian claims commianoo
has toe tight to separate the Tuscaran
Nation from the constitution of the
Lam bees under genocide, when
Lumbees is a genocide name
established uoon Nations of sovereign
In 1976 the B.I. A. and the Dept. of
the Inferior came down to Lumbcrton
North Carolina and drafted out a
constitution that would wott with the
r?C?qra WW am m woying

hat time ordered the B.I. A. to bring
ill Tuacaroras together aid give feem
he rights to establish the aarion and
ther^uwit^MteMte lo he seated
hey ww fh fcr the claims within fee

the Lumbers r?nt work among
themselves how cm they work with
fee sovereign people of fee Tuscarora
nation. I feel like that aU splinter

Leon Locklear. and Hatteras
Tuscaroias-Vernon Locklear have
gone up under the umbrella of
genocide of the state of NC I ?bet
bill united. Also in my opinion the
constitution under the Hatteras
Tuscarotas and the B.I.A. needs to be
attended too. because the court did
not order any change of names ovar to
the Dept. of Interior, and the Dept. of
the Interior did not draft a changed
name back to the court known as
Hatteras-Tuscarota. Ibis is why the
Tuscarora Nation says that the
Hatteias-Tuscarora and the 1LLA
be looked into. Hatteras
Tuscarota did not have any right
drafting and causing genocide against
the Tuscarora nation because the
Tuscarora Nation is under Treaties
with the State of North Carolina and
Hatteras-Tuscarara does not own any
treaties ta the state of North Carolina
Who ever drafted this from the B.I. A
to Hatteras Tuscarora genocides
against the court order of the
Tuscaroras.

| Reader feels objective
reporting needed on Lumbee
Tribal Constitution
A debate has begun among leaders
and members of the I umhtf tribe
about the form of self-government
that the tribe will adopt in the future
The debate was sparked by the efforts
of the tribe to achieve federal
recognition. It seems that in recent
weeks, there ha* beenmuch unfounded
rumors and allegations about problem-,
the heart of the debate The matter 9f"
self-government of the Lumbee is a
very sensitive and complex matter
that should be dealt within an objective
manner by the news media.
I think that it is unfortunate that a
draft constitution has been produced
but that there has been no reporting on
that draft or its potential impact upon
Indian people in Robeson and
aborning counties. I think that your
readen deserve to leant about the
j^ff^Slf^reapor^w rod*ob*ective
news media should report on the heart
of the debate.
