Nonfiction Usage Journalism UsageWashington - News: July 2, 2003 - Headline: Washington State's Wenatchi Indians Ask for Return of Land. Excerpt: The Wenatchi Band of Colville Indians in Washington state is asking Congress to transfer thousands of hectares of land back to tribal control. This follows similar requests by the Klamath and Coos tribes in neighboring Oregon for large parcels they claim were unfairly taken away by the government decades ago. ... The uncertainties and conflicting claims are causing Washington's congressional delegation to take its time evaluating the Colville Tribe's proposal. In Oregon, the Confederated Tribes of the Coos, Lower Umpqua and Siuslaw Indians have had better luck. Republican Senator Gordon Smith has introduced legislation in Congress with the backing of the timber industry to transfer 25,000 hectares of National Forest to the landless Coos tribe.Bibliographic UsageA.G.
