Settlement of Indian Aid Dispute Likely

Washington July 14 AP. An end to the difficulty over welfare payments to reservation Indians in Arizona may be in sight. Perry Ling assistant attorney general said he hoped that before the end of the month things will be worked out so there will be no further difficulty. He would not elaborate after a conference with Oscar E. Ewing. Ling, Sen. Ernest McFarland and C. V. Budlong attended. Ling said face to face meetings were concluded and further talks would be by telephone and letter. Arizona and the federal government disagree on who should finance Indian aid payments. Indians were left without welfare funds when the federal budget earmark ended and Arizona appropriated funds. Federal officials have implied they may withhold matching funds unless Arizona finances the aid.

Papago Water Supply Questioned By House Panel

Washington July 14 A House Indian affairs subcommittee sought definite information on Papago Reservation water for irrigation projects in a proposed 7 million rehabilitation bill.

Myer opposed freeing Arizona from welfare funds and urged federal support, praising Papago cooperation and independence. Representative Wesley D’Ewart pressed for water sources to avoid false hope.
