Bill for Indians Under Preparation
Washington September 25. Efforts to settle differences over a bill to return the Fort Reno Oklahoma military reservation to the Cheyenne and Arapaho Indians are under way. Rep Morris said the bill has passed the House and was approved by the Senate interior committee. Morris hopes to eliminate objections from Oklahoma A and M College during the congressional recess so the bill can pass quickly when Congress returns in November. The college has not replied to a proposal to authorize 1900 acres for 25 years for an experiment station. The remount station, declared surplus after World War II, was turned to the agriculture department and used for cattle experiments.
