Indian Princess Fights Tribe For Women's Rights
Princess Nowanda also known as Lois Hunter has filed a complaint with the Suffolk County Human Relations Commission claiming Shinnecock women should vote in tribal elections. The tribe allows only men to vote in tribal elections, while state and national elections are open to women. The priest Rev Arthur Bryant says a 1892 New York Indian law ties voting to male membership on the Shinnecock reservation. About 400 Indians live on the reservation in Southampton.

Budget Director Schultze and Transportation Secretary Boyd defended the move as critical. Boyd said 275 million of a 1.1 billion cut was unfrozen, but most restored funds could only cover right of way and preliminary engineering, not construction.
