INDIANS SELL TOTEM
POLES AT REVIVALS
Dispose of Painted. Carved
Poles Which They Consider
Sign of'Heathen State.
A despatch from Ottawa says;.
Religious revivals among the Indians
are held partly responsible forthe
disappearance of totem .poles from
their villages in Canada. When the
question of the rapid disappearance
of these poles arose at the annual
meeting of the Canadian Historical
Association here, on receipt of a let-
ter from H. I. Smith that more totem
poles were being offered for sale in a
British Columbia village, C. M. Bar-
beiiu explained the reason for their
removal from the Indian villages.'
Although the painted carved poles
now had no connection with religion
the Indians, when they had a reli-
gious revival, thought they should get
rid of what they considered a sign of
their heathen state. Therefore, after
they had enjoyed the thrill of a revi-
val they wanted to sell their totem
poles. Moreover, substantial sums
were offered and the market was get-
ting better with their scarcity.
The association :deplored this and
passed a resolution supporting the Do-
minion Parks branch in its : plan to
preserve the few remaining Indian vil-
lages.' Two totem pole villages had
disappeared since 1917.
LOAN TO AUSTRIA
VIRTUALLY ARRANGED
League of Nations Fixes Total
of International Loan at
$135,000,000.
A despatch from London says: -
Arrangements for the issue of the in-
ternational Loan to Austria are now
virtually completed, the London fin-
ancial editor of the Manchester
Guardian says.
The amount, fixed by the League of
Nations, according to the Guardian's
editor, Is about 5185,000,000. Of this
amount, about 530,000,000 has already
been floated in short term notes, which
will be offered for conversion into the
long term issue.: This leaves about
5105,000,000 yet to be raised.
It has been decided to raise the en-
tire amount inoneoperation. Thirty,
million dollars,ftve million dollars
more than J. P. Morgan and Co. have
agreed to dispose ofin the United
States, will be raised, and this amount
may be even larger in case some of
the smaller nations fail to deliver
their quota.
France is expected tofurnish two
million dollars, while Switzerland is
counted on for between ono. and two
millions and Sweden for about three
millions.
Austria herself is expected to pro-
duce thirteen millions, and it is hoped
that Spain will take a share and join
the list of guaranteeing states. The
British part of the loan will probably
be issued the second week in June, and
likely carry 7% per cent. interest,
which is the maximum Austria is per-
mitted to pay under the League financ
ing' plan.
