CANADIAN INDIANS.
A SERIOUS SITUATION. By Telegraph.—Press Assn.—Copyright. Ottawa, May 12. A serious situation has arisen at the Six Nations Indian reservation at Brantford, Ontario, as the result of the Government ousting Indian from reservation lands which the Government reserved for ex-service men. Indian chiefs, who travelled to England to see the King, were told by Mr. Winston Chui-chill that the matter was completely in the hands of the Canadian Government. Canadian Court officers, who attempted to oust the squatters, barely escaped with their lives. The Indians show an ancient deed purporting to give them complete rights over the reservation. Mr. Stewart (Minister of the Interior) is due to arrive at Brantford to hold a meeting at which the Indians will receive a bearing.
