Views on Indians.
CONGRESSES ANGER FEARED
Interior Department Gives This
as Reason for It's
Action.

Mohonk Lake. n. Y. Oct 22-Menbers
OF the Federal Indian service, mission
aries, tribal attorneys and others who
spent the day here discussing conditions
among the five civilized tribes of Okla
homa, were stirred tonight by news that
the Department OF the Interior had re-
FUSED to publish a severe criticism OF
conditions in Oklahoma, recently re-
ported by Warren X. Moorehead. OF the
Board OF Indian Commissioners
Mr.. Moorehead. who is here attending
the Lake Mohonk Conference of Friends
OF the Indians and Other Dependent Peo-
pie, received this information from Wash
ington to-day and with il a telegram of
censure from the Acting Secretary OF the
Interior
Commissioner Moorehead is a widely
known arch9ologist, whose home is in
Andover.> Mass. lie investigated condi-
tons In Oklahoma by direction OF the
Board OF Indian Commissioners, and
fearing, he said tonight, that the de-
partment might refuse TO publish his re-
port, ne had 1000 copies printed and cir
culated at private expense.
-Four other members of the board are
here and Commissioner Moorehead. on
their advice, read portions Of this report
at to-nights meeting of the conference,
but refrained from comment Acting
Secretary OF the Interior Jones. he said.
refused TO print the report on the ground
that il was a criticism of Congress and
would cause resentment in Congress. He
did not deny the facts presented
"The weakest thing in the entire In
dian situation" said Mr. Moorehead, rs
that the citizenship we have handed the
Indian carries no weight, and unless he
belongs to the favored class. he can no
more keep his property than can a lamb
escape from the Jaws of the wolf
His chief recommendation was that the
President name a National Indian Com
mission OF nine men. with absolute au-
thority 10 hold Office for ten years. at
adequate salaries. The present board OF
commissioners is unsalaried and has only
advisory powers.
Other speakers on the topic of the OK
