On the basis of linguistic characteristics, the Indians of North America were divided into thre e chief ·groups, the Athabascans, the Iroquois and the Algonquians. First in importance among the A lgonqu ians were the Pot tawattomi whose hunting ground, for • a long time, comprised the Kankakee country. LaSalle did not encounter the Pottawattomi here during his explorations as they were at that time dwelling in the regions around Green Bay. The Jesuit Relations fo r the years 1639 and 1640 refer to them as being north of Lake Huron and later as being farther south along t he shores of Lake Michigan. Charlevoix believed th eir villages on the Saint Joseph and at Detroit to have been settled around 1700. As the tribe multiplied they spread south and west · until they occupied nearly all of Northwestern Indiana and Northern Illinois. These Indians were f a ithful allies of the French until the close of Queen Anne's War in 1 7 1 3. In the Revolutionary War they fought on the side of the British despite the fact of their previous campaigns

In no uncertain terms, the Very Rev. Dr. E. V. Cardinal, C. S. V., denounced Mussolini in his invasion upon the peace of Ethiopia at the first meeting of the I. R . C. Father Cardinal based his condemnation upon three major points: ( 1 ). "The consequences", he said, "of a war between Italy and Ethiopia would be worse than any good that possibly could be derived therefrom". He explained that should war be officially dec lared, it would be inevitable that Europe be drawn into the conflict. "Today'', he asan international serted, "war is crime". (2) The speak er stress ed the conviction that "Italy is not defending a cause which is worthy or just". He discarded ll Duce's plea that Italy need s land for h er crowded populace, because ther e are mea.I?-s which could be used to solve the problem other than war.

Madison, Wis., (ACP) - The college youth of America definitely do es no t want war, and can be expected to oppose vigorously and actively any effort to drag the United States into the general European war m any experts predic t will arise out of the Italo-Ethiopian conflict. This is the belief of Associa ted Collegiate Press · correspondents who have just completed a s urvey of student opinio.n on the s ubjec t . Outstanding among tile conclusions reached as a result of the s urvey are these: ( 1) While most American s tudents are in decided sympathy with Ethiopia in the present un,de clared war in Africa, opinion is divided dS to the wisdom of the United S t ates joining the League ·Of N a tions in th e application of aggress or penaltles against Italy with only a m inority in support. ( 2) Today, more students than ever before are prepared to view w ith cynical skepticism the flag w aving jingoism and propag and a so su ccessfully us ed to drive Ameri ca into participation in th e World W a r. ( 3) The flood of books , pamphlets and magazine articles expos ing the origins of the past wars and particularly the World War, has found a wider circulation among college students and instruc tors than among any other group of the Ame r ican public as a whole. ( 4) The number of "conscientious objectors, and pacifis ts in the colleges and un iver sities, both those who would refuse to enlist for a foreign war and those who are pledged not to fight for any reason, has vastly increased during the past few years.

The last great Indian Council is said to have been held here in 1830 _ The Treaty of Camp Tippecanoe bears his name a s well as Shabbona's. (Continued Next Issue)
