Carter aide to deliver Maine Indian land settlement plan
President Carter's representative in Maine's Indian land suit will submit today recommendations for a settlement of the 12 million acre dispute. Former Justice William Gunter says the suggestions should solve the problem if accepted, else the case could linger in court for years. The Passamaquoddy and Penobscot claim title to two thirds of Maine under a 1790 law, seeking Congress approval that was never granted. The tribes may exchange populated areas for monetary damages, with Congress already introducing the needed legislation.
