Behind the five hit pitching of Vernon Kennedy the Chicago White iStix smashed out 13 hits to defeat the Senators 7 to 2.

By JEAN ALLEN International Illustrated News j Gallup, N. M— One of the milestones of thS New Deal for the : 340,000 Indians in the United States is being constructed -.near here. It is a building, a capitol building with stone walls. It is intended as a state house for the political life of the Nnvajo nation, the largest of all the North American Indian tribes. The edifice, nearing completion at Nee Alneeng. 25 miles from Gallup, and more than a mile active the sea level, is Jhe of the tangible results of the Wheeler-Howard act, which gave to the Indians a NewDeal In political, economic and social life, a policy that has been called by some, the Indian's Magna Chara. The Indian act. passed in 1934 to replace the allotment act of 1887, gives the Indian a new pattern of life, a chance to become I once more the master of his mind and a man of property. Indian Gets New Deal Literally, the act gave to the' various tribes the Tight to decide whether they would accept import-; ant privileges in education, selfdetermination, and self-govern-ment. It formulates an Indian pol-' icy that is liberal in nature. The Indians were given their optional choice. Thus far some 128,000 Indians have voted to come under the provisions of the act. Tne Whee-'er-Howard law provides for the purenase of badly needed lands for the tribes and prohibits the further loss of present Indian lands. It creates a revolving credit fund of 110,000,000 against which the Indians can borrow when they have governmen:approved farms or industrial projects. There are other funds also,

guns. As the roar of the motor grows louder, the coyote doubles his speed, until it appears he’believes the airplane is on his back. "At this time, the ‘chicken stealer’ Tares up, shows his fangs and immediately begins turning in various directions until the plane is pulled up.” Contrary to general belief, it was pointed out, It is almost impossible to “run a coyote to death with ar. airplane, because after each dive, the coyote is smart enough to rest as he dog-trots along.” o CANADA VIEWS WHEAT OUTLOOK WITH OPTIMISM Regina, Sask. (UR) — Canada's wheat crop has been planted under better conditions than have prevailed tor some years, and the feeling throughout the Prairies is one of optimism. Rains in Manitoba, Saskatchewan and Alberta have been so abundant and Sk» widely distributed as to confirm those who hold that wet and dry periods run in cycles, that Western Canada is running out of the dry cycle Into one of generous moisture The rainfall has been heaviest in the southern section and, while the subsoil still lacks its normal reserves, yet sufficient Tain fell during the planting season to give the new crop an excellent start. The Dominion Government, despite this improved prospect, is proceeding with its program tor rehabilitation of the drought areas through measures for the prevention of soil-drifting, the conservation of waler in the dry areas, the regulation of agricultural prac-

There are 220 tribes that col prise the race. And they are sea tered over 22 stales.
