Description
(Original Caption) 1/17/1946-Raleigh, NC: This Cherokee Indian woman still likes the papoose-method of carrying her child. She is among many members of the eastern band of Cherokees, who are supporting HB 1121, a bill they want passed by congress which will limit membership in their tribe to Indians with more than 1/16th degree Cherokee blood. Clarification of the issue will prevent "White Indians" from making claims on land in Qualla boundary, Indian reservation. (Complete caption in Envelope)
