INDIAN BUREAU OFFICIAL
FIS TANANA CROUP
NATIVES MI
“The Tetlin Indian group is one
of the most interesting groups ol
Indians I have seen anywhere ir
Alaska or in the States.” said Dr
W. Carson Ryan, Jr., director ol
education for the Bureau of In
dian Affairs, who made a trip t(
the upper Tanana recently, ac
cording to the Fairbanks News
Miner.
“It is a small community witt
not over 90 inhabitants. Thej
have a chief, Pete Joe, who i:
very zealous in guarding the fooc
supply so it will last through th<
winter. Right now they are busj
drying white fish for use during
the winter.
“Tetlin Indians are particular^
clean and health conditions on the
whole are excellent.”
The Tetlin Indians, and in fad
those in all native villages Dr
Ryan visited, have in his opinior
a better chance for economic de
velopment than many living ir
the States.
At Tetlin they have good gar
dens and reserves of fish anc
game upon which to live. “Th<
gardens,” he said, “were made pos
sible largely through the efforts o:
Jack Singleton, the governmenl
teacher there for the last severa
years. He is a good example ol
| what the Bureau of Educatior
has done in improving condition:
among the Indians. Tetlin na
tives built their own schoolhouse
although, of course, part of the
material was furnished by th<
government.”
Tanana Crossing, said Dr. Ryan
is a larger village than Tetlin bul
j health conditions there are no
Iso good.
Investigation will be made o
the practicability of teaching th<
Indians fur farming, but this pro
gram, said Dr. Ryan, is much lesi
definite than the appointment o
a nurse.
The Upper Tanana region sur
rounding the villages has been re
served from entry by presidents
| order and while the Indian Bureai
i k generally opposed to reserva
' tions, an exception was made ir
this case because the district h
I isolated and partly because In
; dians there are so dependent upor
hunting and fishing for a living
it was said.
“Alaska from our standpoint,’
i he said, “is chiefly important be
cause it represents a new way o]
handling the natives with non
: reservation schools. In the States
!we have 20 schools having 500 tc
1,000 pupils removed from familiar
! surroundings. Here the school;
have been established in the com
munities in which the childrer
; live and here the Indian has no:
been expected to fit into the whit<
man’s mode of living but has beer
training to do better the thing:
to which he is accustomed. Thi
philosophy and practice is sounde:
than the corresponding philosophy
and practice in the States. Th<
weakness has been that the pol
icies have not been pushed ag
gressively enough.”

(By Special Correspondent)
I LAKE KENAI, Aug. 5. —Com
I mander J. R. Towle, of the USS
Tahoe, who last week, in company
with members of his staff, fished
t in Russian River, expressed him
i self to residents as being extreme
ly sorry he was unable to remain

With him were Lieut. L. G.
Await, executive officer; E. H.
Fritsche, lieut. comdr.; W. W.
' Prowle, chief engineer, and A. J.
Hesferd, ensign.
Following the motor trip from
Seward to Mile 18, Lake Kenai, the
r party boarded Towle’s speed boat
. and within the hour were at the
[ Towle Lodge, at the other end of
, the lake where they spent an tn
, joyable afternoon and evening
, fishing from the Towle dock. In
the morning they boarded the
, speed boat and shot the famous
, rapids of Kenai River to Russian
River.
. The trip was Mr. Towle’s second
trip to Russian River in company
; with Towle, for two years ago he,
and another party, made the jour
t ney.
