Alaska Hearings
Scheduled on
Native Land Claims
A Congressional subcommittee of
the committee of the Interior and
Insular Affairs plans to hold hear
ing- in Alaska on House Bill 4388,
Hugh J. Wade, area directo ■ of the
Alaska Native Serivce said today
The bill was introduced oy Dele
gate E. L. Bartlett to settle native
land claims in Alaska. The subcom
mittee composed of five congress
men including Bartlett is scheduled
to begin hearings in Anchorage [
Nov. 5, Wade said. Tne committee j
members also expect to hold hear
ings in Kotzebue, Nome, Kodiak^
Fairbanks, Juneau, Sitka and Ket
chikan.
The tentative schedule calls for
a hearing In Juneau on Nov. 8. Ar
rangements have been made, Wade
said, to hold the hearing in Ketchi
kan on Nov. 10 preceding the Al
aska Native Brotherhood conven
tion starting there Nov. 12.
It was' thought by the SMbcommit- (
tee, he said, that a hearing in Ket- j
chikan would give all natives m
southeast Alaska an opportunity to
appear and present their views on
the Bartlett bill. t
The committee, he continued, has
agreed that if the hearing cannot]
be completed Nov. 10, the committee i
would be willing to continue it ]
until all natives may be given an i
opportunity to testify.
The group, said Wade, feels thatj
this is an important bill and that)
all natives in the Territory should i
be vitally interested in making their
views known. The bill is of great
interest to all people in Alaska and
it is expected that the hearings
will be well attended by natives
and non-natives, he said.
Wade returned Monday from
Washington, D. C.. where he attend
ed a meeting of area directors in
the Bureau of Indian Affairs.
