among Indian groups who 5 deem it an insult Rick Hill a 1 member of the Oneida tribe told the Assembly Highways Committee last week "(Columbus) 5 is from the same league as I Hitler and Saddam (Hussein) I think the man has been responsible for the death of three million Indian people over time" Zoltan Orossan of the Midwest Treaty Network told the committee that renaming the highway for
