    New settlement idea for
Indian claims is rumored
: WASHINGTON (UPI) Government
:sources said yesterday the ad
rlninistration has discussed introduction
'of a bill to settle the current spate of land
:claims by eastern Indians, but other
I ;officials denied the report.
Elliot Cutler, associate director of the
'Office of Management and Budget for
'natural resources, denied that such
:legislation was discussed. Cutler is on a
White House task force working on the
land claims problem.
But other sources. said there was
a r' d ikugsion of a measure that would
:'.either give the Indians a lump sum of
•money, or an appropriation plus
';'!`eminent domain" powers to buy the
:private lands they want.
"Eminent domain" refers to the
. 410 wer of government to buy private
'property at a fair price whether or not
owners are willing to sell.
~ .One source said some factions in the
'administration believe the pending land
claiin lawsuits have become a nuisance,
, tying up federal lawyers while de
pressing local economies where title
to the disputed properties is under
challenge.
'" This source said, however, that White
House counsel Robert Lipshutz is
believed to be opposed to the legislative
settlement approach. Lipschutz was
unavailable for comment.
• The claims are based on alleged
violations of the Indian Nonintercourse
'Act of 1790, which requires the federal

Cases that would be affected by the
prospective legislation would include the
claims of the Passamaquoddy and
-l'enobscot Indians to 12 million acres in
Maine; the St. Regis Mohawk, Cayuga
and Oneida claims to 270,000. acres in
upstate New York, and the Catawba
claim to a 140,000 acre reservation that
includes the town of Rock Hill, S.C.
The Interior Department has urged
federal legal action on behalf of the
claimant Indians in pursuing its trust
responsibility to native Americans.

troduced bills that would void or settle
the Indians' claims in a manner less
favorable to the Indians.

The Pentagon spokesman said
Brown has done only "preliminary"
work on preparing a study plan, and
has 'reached "no conclusions" as to
how the review will be conducted.
He said the study panel might be
composed of "insiders and out
siders," but, in any case, Brown
would submit his plan for Carter's

For Brown's guidance on the nature
of the problems to be examined,
Carter sent along a White House staff
summary that said "serious
questions persist about the ef
fectiveness of the command structure
for the conduct of war, for peacetime
activities and for crisis
management."
