Indian tribes and <br />individuals, when on trust land, are likewise subject to <br />tribal and Federal jurisdiction, but not to State or <br />county jurisdiction. <br />The autonomy of the Indian tribes (which seems <br />peculiar to the non-Indian) enables them to appeal <br />directly to the Congress of the United States for special <br />legislation. This explains why certain Federal legislation <br />is applicable to only one specific tribe - the tribe which <br />obtained it for its own purposes. <br />The Indians, with their differing economic and social <br />situations, must be considered as separate entities in the <br /> <br />planning of resource development. They have different <br />values and social philosophies that are not commonly <br />subscribed to by the white communities within the <br />basin. <br /> <br />ECONOMY <br /> <br />The basin's or region's economic growth, as indicated <br />by the projections of income, employment, and popula- <br />tion, will nearly parallel that for the Nation. <br /> <br />Table 2 - POPULATION AND ECONOMIC I ND-'CAT_QIiS:_UNITED STATES AND MISSOURI RIVER <br />REGION, 1960; WITH PROJECTIONS TO 20201 <br /> <br />Item and Area Unit 1%0 1980 2000 2020 <br />Pop ula tion : 2 Million <br />United States 176.3 243.9 336.8 467.7 <br />Missouri Region 7.9 10.4 14.3 20.1 <br />Employment: 3 Million <br />Total <br />United States 66.4 94.8 130.6 181.2 <br />Missouri Region 3.0 4.1 5.6 7.8 <br />Agricul ture: Thousand <br />United States 4,528 2,500 1,900 1.,750 <br />Missouri Rfgion 512 336 272 249 <br />Gross National Product:4 $ Billion 440 1,001 2,144 4,686 <br />Personallncome:4 $ Billion <br />United States 352 785 1,680 3,630 <br />Missouri Region 14.4 32.4 69.4 151.4 <br />Per Capita Income:4 $ Billion <br />United States 1,994 3,200 5,000 7,750 <br />Missouri Region 1,813 3,106 4,838 7,549 <br /> <br />I Preliminary economic projections for th.e Missouri River Region (Basin), Office of Business Economics, U.S. Department of <br />Commerce and Economic Research Service, U.S. Department of Agriculture. <br />21ncludes Armed Forces abroad. <br />3Census of Population concept; excludes th.ose stationed overseas. <br />41n terms of 1954 dollars. <br /> <br />Population is expected to increase 2~ times the 1960 <br />figure by 2020, and employment is expected to show a <br />similar growth.
