Opinion by Judge CANBY.
CANBY, Circuit Judge:
The Crow Tribe of Indians brought an action against Campbell Farming Corporation, Robert Earl Holding and several companies controlled by Holding for violating section 2 of the Crow Allotment Act of 1920. The district court granted the defendants’ motion to dismiss on the grounds that the Tribe lacked standing to enforce the statute and that the Tribe’s claims were barred by the Montana statute of limitations. 828 F.Supp. 1468. Finding that the Tribe has no right of action under the provision in question, we affirm.
