SPANISH AMERICANS SUE U.S. OVER ANCIENT GRANTS DENVER, Colo. (AP) -- Spanish-Americans have sued the United States for damages that could total $1,000,000,000,000--a figure too large to be comprehended by most--over their claims on 19th century Spanish and Mexican land grants. The suit was filed in federal court here Monday by 28 des- cendants of Americans who held the grants in what now is the United States at the time the land was ceded to the U.S. in 1803, 1848 and 1898. The suit contends the land was taken by force, trickery and through violation of their ancestors' civil rights, and asks that the land be returned or damages of $1,000,000 be awarded to all descendants of the land grant holders. Charles §S. Vigil, the former U.S. attorney for Colorado who filed the suit for the 28, said a rough estimate would place the number of those descendants today at 500,000 Spanish-named ing corporations -- involved in THE OSHAWA TIMES, Thursday, November 30, 1967 to 1,000,000. At $1,000,000 apiece, that would add up to $1,000,000,000,. MANY INVOLVED Defendants in the suit are the United States, the depart- ments of justice, interior and agriculture, bureaus of inter- nal revenue and land manage- ment, the civil rights commis- sion and anyone else--includ- the action. Vast acres of the United States, touching both coasts and both borders, are in- volved. The sult mentioned specifi- cally lands in Colorado, New Mexico, Florida, Texas, Cali- fornia, Arizona, Louisiana, Georgia, North Carolina and South Carolina, along with the Louisiana Purchase as a whole, Vigil said after the suit was filed that parts of Maryland, Virginia, Washington, Wyom- ing and Idaho and all of Cali- fornia, Utah, Nevada and Ore- gon would be involved.

He takes over from Laval Fortier, 63, re- Waterloo CAS Reports _ No Adoptive Families TORONTO (CP) -- There are no eligible families willing to adopt two foster children from the Galt home of Mrs, Arthur Timbrell, says the director of the Waterloo County Children's Aid Society. In a Nov. 27, letter read to a judicial inquiry today, Wilson Hunsberger, CAS director said 12 to 15 couples applied to adopt sisters Peggy 5, and Valerie 3. The letter written to George Lochead, CAS lawyer, said the society cut down the applica- tions to two couples who could be given a chance to adopt the children. However, in October, both applications were with- drawn. : The inquiry was ordered by Premier John Robarts after the two foster children were taken from the Timbrell home Sept. 28. A wild scuffle began outside the home when Mrs. Timbrell refused to return the two chil- dren to the CAS officials. Mrs. Timbrell claimed the so- ciety planned to separate the sisters, who are Roman Catho- lic. The Timbrell family is An- glican. John O'Driscoll, inquiry law- yer, read the letter before pre- senting final arguments before Judge Harry Waisberg. The letter said there has been "no active planning since late September" in placing the chil- dren out for adoption. The letter goes on to say the sisters will be offered for adoption. after the in- uiry ends. They will not be se- parated unless further profes- sional evaluation suggests se- paration. Mr. Hunsberger said in the letter the society is prepared to follow a policy of placing the children in a Protestant home, if Catholic homes are not avail- able. In summing up the evidence, Mr. O'Discoll said that the York county court judge would have to decide whether the CAS in- vestigation of the Timbrel! home was as widespread and deep as it could have been. Valerie and Peggy were placed in the home in January, 1967.
