(6y Blair Warns of Violence If Indians Stay By BOB STROM MOSS LAKE Indians oc cupying a state owned former girls' camp here have turned their "ganienkelT settlement into an armed camp, according to a report by former Lowville newspaper editor Michael J. Blair. Two persons riding in cars passing the Indian settlement were injured by gunfire Oct. 28, and Blair and State Sen. James H.

Donovan, Utica area Republican, expressed fears of more violence this summer. In a letter to Gov. Carey this week, Donovan asked that steps be taken to limit the number of Indians entering the campsite "so as not to enhance this miscarried symbol of lack of justice for Indians." "The state's lack of resolution" in the Indian takeover of By BOB STROM WATERTOWN The Wa tertown International Airport Commission, in an informal meeting Wednesday, approved the progress of negotiations with Air North Inc. on terms of a proposed contract for the airline to become fixed base operator (FBO) at the city owned airport. Terms of the proposal call for Air North to pay $3,000 annual rent to the city, plus 1 cent a gallon on all "contract" aviation fuel sales and 2 cents a gallon on fuel sold for general aviation.

Airport Commission Chairman Karl R. Burns also said the proposed five year contract which is being drafted by Air North officials contains a clause which allows for renegotiation of the financial terms after a year of operation. Burns, commission Vice Chairman Raymond Dorr and Going to Quebec Special to The Post Standard WASHINGTON Rep. Robert C. McEwen will be in Quebec this weekend, attending a meeting of the Canada U.S.

Interparliamentary Group. The group is made up of members of the American Congress who meet twice each year with their Canadian counterparts to discuss common problems in the interests of relations between the two countries. Rep. McEwen has been a member of the American delegation to the group since 1971. He will be on a task force discussing conservation, water boundary issues, environment, air and water pollution and maritime related matters.

Democratic delegates from the House are Reps. Thomas Morgan. Harold Johnson. William Randall, Lloyd Meeds, Helen Meyner, Cardiss Collins, Dante Fascell. Sam Gibbons, and Mike McCormack.

Republican delegates with McEwen are Reps. James Cleveland. Larry Wynn and Pierre DuPont. The congressional district represented by McEwen has nearly 200 miles of common boundary with Quebec and Ontario. The group will have its second meeting later this year in Washington.

the property "could provide the setting wherein a minor incident, even a prank, could precipitate another act of violence," Donovan warned. He told Carey that he regarded the matter as urgent, because ''winter has vanished. Warm weather campers and tourists will now start enlarging the permanent population in the Moss Lake area. Blair's report states, "There are extremist elements at Moss Lake and they will become in my opinion more extreme as time goes on. if allowed to continue, the occupation of Moss Lake will swell until summer there will be further incidents, like those of last October, and they will be ugly incidents." He also said he is "convinced that it is at Moss Lake where Air North member Peter H.

Remington met last Wednesday with Air North General Manager Richard K. Derridinger, director of industry affairs William J. McElroy and Roy Johnsen, who has been proposed to run the Watertown operation, to discuss contract terms. On March 12, Air North proposed it be named the FBO at the city owned airport, saying it would turn over 3 per cent of its gross yearly revenues exceeding $100,000 in return for the privilege. However, that proposal has been rejected in favor of new terms.

The "key" to the contract proposal agreed on last week. Burns said, is the clause "that it will be reviewed at the end of a vear." He said he had told Air North last week that "if they were making lots of money, we would like to change the percentages, but if they are losing product prices are putting sev ere pressure on oairv tanners." 'it is common knowledge the militants, the radical minority of the American Indian community in the United States, intend to make their stand. "If something is not done soon, it is going to be a long, hot summer. The outlook is frightening, and the outcome is uncertain," he said. Donovan's office is allowing newsmen to study Blair's report, which was commissioned by St.

Lawrence County Assemblyman K. Daniel Haley. Copies also have been provided to Carey, State Environmental Conservation Commissioner Ogden Reid, Assemblyman William R. Sears and the Assembly subcommittee on Indian affairs. Haley, a Democrat, has not made the report public, pending completion of an investigation by the State Board their shirts, we don't want to put them up against the wall." The commission Wednesday gave its informal approval to the terms negotiated last week.

It will still be some time before a formal contract is ready for offical action, Burns said. Another point of agreement between the airline and the commission is on rental of proposed hangars, which are being designed by the architectural firm of Sargent, Webster, Crenshaw and Folley. Burns said Air North had offered to collect rents on the hangars for the city, charging only a "small percentage" for handling the payments. templating constructing one building housing about 12 hangars, but felt it could not build the building and then turn it over to Air North to operate.

However, the elections board told Blair this month that it had no objection to the report's being made public. In addition to hunting rifles, members of the "Warriors' Society" who guard entrances to the 612 acre campsite have been observed carrying .30 caliber carbines, "with back to back 30 shot clip magazines," Blair states in his report. He said state police "have reports that the Indians have constructed bunker type fortifications about the camp. "Those which have been seen are dugout bunkers with camouflaged covers and Proposal Gets Informal Okay able. Remington, who was on the committee that met with Air North, said the agreement gives the airline "a chance to get going," since it would start the Watertown operation "from scratch." Commission member Arthur C.

Stever Jr. commented, "I can't see how we can lose on the thing. In fact, we stand to gain." Burns explained that the city makes a profit of about SI ,554 a year on the hangar operation, which would be lost if Air North takes it over. However, estimated that first year revenues based on calendar year 1974 gas sales would amount to $6,944. including the annual rental fee.

In addition, the chairman said he expects that business at the airport will increase next winter once the proposed instrument landing system is operational. ert C.
