With religious denominations in avoiding
the dangers which may come from prose

There is no authority under existing law

taohshed by executive order There are
several such reservations rich in minerals,

ton. is a matter OF prime Importance and
should be protected by stringent laws in
accord with the most advanced and pest
marriage and divorce laws among the
whites. The Secretary of the Interior
should be given power TO enforce a purer

holding their annuities when they arc

There is a great need for a determined

those industries best suited to their locali-

corps similar in its administrative features
TO the medical corps above outlined should
be established, with headquarters in the
field, with a view to the industrial educa-

whose duty il should be to educate the Ind
