Natives Give Up
Some Rights
JUNEAU, (iT*)—Claims of abor
iginal rights to 10.95 acres of tide
land being sought by the federal
government in condemnation pro
ceedings have been dropped.
The motion was made by Wil
liam Paul, attorney for James Mil
ler and 22 other Tlingit Indians
who claim the land sought by the
government.
Paul said he made the motion
on advice of James Curry, Wash
ington, D. C., attorney who repre
sents a number of Indian tribes in
the Territory. Curry gave no rea
son for the withdrawal.
The decision coincides with a
recent opinion by the ninth circuit
court of appeals that all aborigin
al rights were eliminated by the
treaty with Russia.
The defendants now must prove
they are entitled to compensation
for the land by showing continual
use and occupancy since 1884.
