  • A Report on Indian Township Passamaquoddy Tribal Lands In
    A REPORT ON INDIAN TOWNSHIP PASSAMAQUODDY TRIBAL LANDS IN THE VICINITY OF PRINCETON, MAINE Anthony J. Kaliss 1971 Introduction to 1971 Printing Over two years have passed since I completed the research work for this report and during those years first one thing and ttan another prevented its final completion and printing. The main credit for the final preparation and printing goes to the Division of Indian Services of the Catholic Diocese of Portland and the American Civil Liberities Union of Maine. The Dioscese provided general assistance from its office staff headed by Louis Doyle and particular thanks is due to Erline Paul of Indian Island who did a really excellent job of typing more than 50 stencils of title abstracts, by their nature a real nuisance to type. The American Civil Liberities Union contrib­ uted greatly by undertaking to print the report Xtfhich will come to some 130 pages. Finally another excellent typist must be thanked and that is Edward Hinckley former Commissioner of Indian Affairs who also did up some 50 stencils It is my feeling that this report is more timely than ever. The Indian land problems have still not been resolved, but more and more concern is being expressed by Indians and non-Indians that something be done. Hopefully the appearance of this report at this time will help lead to some definite action whether in or out of the courts. Further research on Indian lands and trust funds remains to be done. The material, I believe, is available and it is my hope that this report will stimulate someone to undertake the necessary work.

  • Guide to Borough Government
    The Pennsylvania State Association of Boroughs Junior Council Person Program: Guide to Borough Government Thank you for committing to serve your borough through the Pennsylvania State Association of Boroughs Junior Council Person (JCP) Program. From its inception, the JCP program has aimed to provide high school juniors and seniors across the Commonwealth an opportunity to learn about and actively participate in borough government. By becoming a junior council person you have taken a step to strengthen your community and become a leader for future generations of public service minded individuals. The following pages are designed to assist you during your term on borough council. This guide will explain, as simply as possible, the structure and nature of local government in Pennsylvania. It will give you details on the qualifications to become a borough councilperson and the powers granted once a citizen is elected to the position. It will explain to you how meetings are conducted, why it is important to be accountable and transparent in your actions, and the various responsibilities placed on borough councils throughout the state. It will give you information on the fiscal powers of borough council and will explain to you the importance of providing municipal services to the residents of your community. We encourage you to ask your borough officials questions throughout the year and to dig deeper into important community issues. We have also included “Questions to Consider” and “Challenges” at the end of each section. These questions and challenges are designed to stimulate your thinking and encourage you to delve deeper into the topic areas.
