Comment, United States v. Mitchell

Prior to 1946, in order for tribal Indians to gain access to courts for consideration of claims arising out of treaties between Indians and the United States, a special act of Congress was required in each case conferring jurisdiction on the court of claims to hear a tribe\u27s grievance. Long delays, expense, and in many cases denial of access to court for Indians resulted. Seeking to remedy the situation, in 1946, Congress enacted the Indian Claims Commission Act. Under the Act, an Indian Claims Commission was given extremely broad jurisdiction to adjudicate the many outstanding Indian claims, including those based upon fair and honorable dealings that are not recognized by any existing rule of law or equity. The Indian Claims Commission Act was applicable, however, only to claims accruing before August 13, 1946, and the Commission itself was to terminate within ten years of its first meeting. Thereafter, Indian claimants were to be entitled to recover in the court of claims in the same manner, to the same extent, and subject to the same conditions and limitations, and the United States shall be entitled to the same defenses, both at law and in equity as in cases brought by any other citizen. Because of the unique nature of the relationship between the government and the Indians, and the peculiar and complex problem of Indian claims, in many instances the courts have had difficulty providing an adequate judicial remedy under the present, more limited, jurisdictional statute. This difficulty is illustrated in United States v. Mitchell, where Indian claimants sought damages for an alleged breach by the government of a fiduciary duty owed to the Indians in managing Indian timber lands

Meaning Formation

An attempt was made to demonstrate laboratory conditions in which experiential components of meaning (i.e. perceptual and emotional correlates of observable stimuli and responses) pattern to form a gestalt. Semantic differential scales were used to measure the meaning of simple visual figures in two phases of the experiment. The first phase consisted of a pre- and post-exposure measurement of meaning with an intervening exposure to a compound visual display. In the second phase, subjects were exposed to an altered visual display and then rated the stimuli again. Results do not support the predictions that (1) the meaning of the central stimulus would change as a function of being presented in the context of other stimuli, or that (2) if the context is altered, then the meaning of the central stimulus would change again. Methodological problems and alternative theoretical notions are considered in the Discussion
