COPY.  Washington,  July 3, 1915.  Mr. John A. Buntin,  Supt. Tongue River School.  Sir:  The Office is in receipt of your letter of June  24, suggestin Mr. Charles Larson and wife, employees  at the Tulalip Indian School, for transfer to the positions of Industrial teacher and assistant matron,  respectively, at the Tongue B'.ver School.  You are advised that Mr. Larsnn has no status that  would permit of his transfer to the position of Industrial teacher irrespective of the fact that it is considered inadvisable to make him an offer, inasmuch as he is  now receiving  720.00 a year, whereas the position of  Industrial teacher at Tongue Eiver pays only  600.00 a  year.  The Office records do.not show Ur    Larson ao being  employed at the Tulalip School, neither is there anything  of record to show her qualifications.  The office will, therefore, endeavor to fill these  vacancies by September 1, in another manner.  Very truly yours.  Signed:  E. B. Merritt.  Assistant Commissioner.

If it can assist you in any way I shall be glad indeed to  have been able to do so.  I think you can fill the position very  nicely and wish you every possible success     but Heaven help you  A  if you go to Tongue River   You are much better off where you are   The distance and the ieolation will eventually make you quite discontented and homesick and the winters will not lessen that feeling  one bit.  I am glad to Know that you are all well.  We  have had an unusual year at Tulalip with this long, distressing  winter that yet endures though June is already half gone.  It has  brought so much sickness and so many deaths all over the reservation.  It has been so distressing and has made so many sad and  heavy hearts   Give my love to little  Pete  and of course accept  greetings and best wishes for yourself and Mr. Larsen.   fcZlt, X L.  your friend,   lt;-*t-cc  Supt.  etc.

To Whom It May Concern:  This is to certify that Mrs,  iss  Charles E. Larsen, as/Myrtle Loughrey of our Port Madison Reservation, has been for some y;ars a student of the Tulalip Indian  School and that in her later years she displayed capacity, initiative, ability and trustworthiness in several lines; that for a couple  of years or so she worked with me in the Tulalip School Hospital  and displayed unusual ability there as a pupil-apprentice nurse  and in ctherwaye.  She has the capacity of handling Indian girls  and Indian school details handily and satisfactorily and would doubtless succeed in almost any line of domestic work upon which she  ehose to embark.  I believe she could and would make an excellent  cook or nurse for any i*  e of the smaller boarding schools of the Service or at assisting such positions in the larger schools of the  Service.  I have known Mrs. Lsrs n from her babyhood and I believe  I am quite conserative in my statements above.  Respectfully,  (Signed)  Charles M. Buchanan,  Supt. etc.

Dear Sir:  When I was at  Busby about  ten  days ago,  your   wife told me that  I  could reach you at Great  Falls, where I wrote you.       Hot having heard from  you,   I think that you must not have  received the  letter,   hence  I  am sending- this to Great Falls,  Billings,  and to  Busby.  iVe have a vacancy here ia disciplinarian  which  I believe you could fill,   and I do not   believe  you would find it   so   trying as  the work with the  Cheyennes, and we would appreciate your help with  the band.       The  position pays  only vooO,  but  if  you have no  regular  employment,   it  v/ould be better  than irregular labor and high expense  outside the  Service.  I have delayed making any other attempt   
        4  to fill the place until I heard from you.  If you  receive this word please let me know promptly.  In  the event that you should come and prove satisfactory,  there might be openings at better salaries than that  position pays, though there is nothing definite in  view at this time .

Dear Mr.  Larson,  I   have again an opening in position  of  disciplinarian  at  this  school   nd I  write  asking if you would accept  same if it were   offered  to you.     The position pays   65.00  per month v;ith the   0  increase in  addition until June  30,   this year,     Making  71,50 per month.     It  is  likely  that  the   same increase will be   continued  for the next  year,     I   could   lilsLy  give your wife  a position,   in fact  I  will have a vacancy as baker about  the  15th  of April  which pays  4-0 per month,   and with the  10;t increase  would be  44.     There will  likely be  a vancancy in  position as boys'   matron  at  S x  5 0 per year,   1Q   additional,   by  the  first  of July.  Have  a fine  location here,   right  in   town.     Plenty  of    opportunity  for am/usement  in band  and  orchestra,   I  have  a  city band  of  twenty pieces.  Let me  know it  once if  the proposition itakes any  appeal    to you.  Respectfully,  CRw   lt;   Vuta  gt;V   
        1917- . 1917  As soon es I could I located another Job and this time I signed  on as a HELPER at the Skinner   Eddy Shipyard in Seattle. :,flaen  I reported to duty snd upon entrance to the yard I, with a  group of new workers, found ourselves facing a group of men  waiting for us- one of these fellows looked at me snd said   Come along Bud  and I followed .him to a tool room where I was     sued a hammer-  Followrae  said my boss and I followed him.  tfe went to a .ship under construction and my boss never told me  what we were supposed to do so I Just followed him.  He would  walk along the hull, inside, tapping bolt heads end me following  Just tepping because I couldn't see Just what he was doing. The  ti.ird day he failed to show up- I got my hammer and Just went  arou d hitting anything and everthing until I got disgusted.  That weefi: end I went over to Tacoma and contaced Mr. Johnson  Williams and he told me to come on over to Tacome and he was  sur6 he could get me a Job at the Todd Shipyard.  He was one  of the timekeepers.   When I reported at this yard I was shown  a desk and on that desk was a  pile of reports- time keepers  reports that had not been completed- I wes told I was a  distribution writer.  I soon learned what this wa- all about  and completed the work and then was assigned to the Job of  one of the timekeepers- there were three of us.  I was given  the names of about fifty men- my Job was to find these men and  since there were several thousand men in this yard I was  in doubt as to whether I could deliver the goods- my men were  ship-fitters- I couldn't find any of them and about the end  of the third day I was ready to give up but a group of these  men were working right under our office- I stopped to talk with  them and they soon discovered that I was their lost time-keeper.  They put me onto the works- pointed out my men- working in  groups from two to five men in a group.  All of these men had  numbers and carried brass ahecks with their numbers and when  leaving the yerd they put their checks on the board 8t the main  entrance.   From here on I could see my men and get their  numbers, the hull they were working on and the kind of work  they were doing by  them pointing to the hull and indicating by  signs Just whet they were doing.   While working here we went  through two strikes and when the third strike esme along I quit  end we moved back to Indianola Beach.  During the time I worked  in Tacome we rented a house on E 32nd Street.  During the time since we left 3usy Mr. M.'Y. Cooper hed been  trensferred to Klemeth Agency and we received word from him  to come down end work there.  Mrs. Larsen took cherge of the  kitchen and dining hall while I was assigned to the office.  7e errived et Klemeth on Feb.13, 1918, during e heevy snow  storm.   -rs. Larsen steyed until school was out An June and  then she and Vivian left for Indirnole 3eech.  I lasted until  November 22, 1918 when the doctor told me I hed better leave  there because of the altitude,  Thile at Klemeth Agency I wes  appointed es Reglstar for register8tlon of Indiens frr draft.   
        While et CLamath I received two offers for employment- first,  Supt. C. R. Whitlock at Pawhuska, Oklahoma offered me position  of disciplinarian and Mrs. Larsen the position of baker and later  the position of boys matron.  This offer we refused.  The other  offer was from Supt. John 3 Brown, U.S.Indian Industrial School  at Phoenix, Ariz lt;5ne who offered me posltior of bend instructor  and assistant discipllnarian- this we refused.  On October 22, 1919 was offered clerkship at Warmsprings by  telegram but refused.  On Oct.24, 1919 I received letter from  Edwin L. Chalcraft, Superintendent, Siletz Indian Agency, Oregon  tha  there was a vacancy there es clerk.  On Nov.13, received  telegram asking if I would accept position at Siletz.  On Nov.  22 my appointment was made.  We entered on duty at Siletz on Dec.3,  1919.  Ve arrived et Toledo, Oregon late in the afternoon and  went to Siletz, ten miles distant, in the mail truck- the last  trip for the truck that winter-  the road wes rough and muddy.  -v*

        DEPARTMENT OF THE INTERIOR  Clr. 1305-M        Office of Indian Affairs  WASHIBGTON  DisT)ositlon of registration cards.  July 19, 1918.  To Su ne r In t end en t;-.-.:  Your attention is invited to that part of Section 78 of  Registration Regulations No. 2 relative to the disposition of the  registration cards of  oersons registered on Indian reservations,  and you ax instructed as followsS  The registration cards, original and duplicate, of citizen Indians and all other persons, excent noncitizen Indians.  should he sent directly to the nearest State local registration  hoard in the jurisdiction in which your reservation belongs. If  your reservation comprises or Is a part of more than one county,  it win he necessary to segregate the cards by counties and mail  them accordingly.  In the case of noncitizen Indians, the duplicate cards  should he sent to the Coviissloner of Indian Affairs and the origin'  nais retained hy you.  Under the first registration there has heen considerable  correspondence as to what Indians are citizens. The question of  citizenship, as a general rule, is an individual one to determine  which the facts in each Individual case must be considered. The  folio-ing general rules, however, are given herewith as a guide to  Superintendents to determine this question in the cases coming before them:  I. Indians whose trust or restrictive fee patents are  ted prior to May 8, 1906 are citizens by virtue of Section 6 of  the Act of Feb.8, 1887.  11. Indians whose trust or restrictive fee patents are  dated May 8, 1206, or subsequent thereto and who have received p t-  ents in fee for their aliottments are citizens by virtue of said  section 6 of the Act of Feb. 8, 1387 as amended by the Act of May  8, 1906 (34 St t.L. 182).  111. Section ofzfezB 6 of the Act of Feb.e, 1887, both before  and after its being amended by the act of May 8,1906, provides that:   Every Indian born within the terriotorial limits of  the Un/ited States who has voluntarily taken up, with said limits,  his re id.ence separate and apart from any tribe of Indians theein,  and has adopted the habits of civilized life, Is hereby declared to  be a citizen of the United States, and is entitled to ail the rghts  privileges, and immunities of such citizens********** .   
        I f  I  IV.  The Solicitor of this Department has held that wher  Indian parents became citizens u-on allotment thir minor childBn  became citizens with them, and that children born subsequent thereto were born to citizenship.  Where it beeves nece:s;.ry to submit the question to  this office, full information should be given on the above pOit*,  together with any other facts and circumstances which enter fcito  the particular case. Some Jurisdictions have special circu.nstanes  which enter into the r;uestion, but these can not be gone into here,  and they are generally :ncwn to the locations involved.  Noncitizen Indians are entitled to deferred classification. Therefore where the registration of the Indians was handled by the State authorities in this second registration, you  shoul confer with and advise the boards as to which of the register  ed Indians are noncitizens. You should also advise your Indian's,  who have so registered, in regard to their rights to deferred classification on the ground on noncitizenshio and on such other grounds  as they may be entitled to under the lav. and the President's  regulations.  Under the regulations, claims for e emotion or discharge  may be made by any p rson by or in behalf of another person. As  Si; erinten ent in charge of and responsible for the welfare of your  you should therefore exercise this right wh-rever tho circumstances vmrrant such action, and especially in view of the fact  that in many c ses th rights of the Indians may not otherwise be  nrotected. F rtiier, it is not advisable to have Indians drafted and  sent to cam- only to be discharged on account of claims iffor exemption  etc, thus involving annoyance to the Indians and expense to the    '  Government. The Indians should be advised and they are entitled to  waive their rights to erem tion or deffered classification.  In the case of Indians now classified as noncitizens and  who later become cltiz ns, you win follow the instructions issued  In Circular NO.1305-H, dated April 87,1918. The same procedure win  be followed in the case of any who it is found have been erroneously  classified as noncitizens and whose cards have been sent to this office  CATO SELLS,  Co    Loner.  j  I

Mr. Laxsen entered on duty here December  3rd, last, at   730 per year, the salary having been reduced  from  900. He was at considerable expense boming from the  state of Washington with his family, a.    ile feeling dis-  ointed at the reduction in salary he feels that should  he accept transfer to Greenville at c 900 per annum the expense in malting the ohange.would be greater than the benefit  derived from increas in salary; ,x  consideration  is the effect the higher altitude nay have on his health. He  was property clerk at Klamath Agency in 1918 and had to resign  and go to his home for this reason,  I should like to have Mr. Larsen remain fit Silett  because he is capable to handle the land s, 1        just  beginning and of which there will be a large number before  the work is completed. The authorized salary hex  I    irely  too low  for a man of hie ability and if funds available will     .r.it it should be restored to   900 as originally authorized.

If you already have someone under bond as your Deputy, it  will not, of course, be necessary to require him to give another bond.  Very truly yours  CLARK    JBC:EH  incs.
