INDIAN AFFAIRS
TO Be CONSIDERED
Complete Reorganization May Be
Established During Pres
ent Congress.
[speoial.to The Times-Dispatch.l


Washington. January G.--Complete reor-
ganization OF Indian affairs with the separa-
don OF the Indian Bureau from the Depart
ment OF the Interior, may be established
during the present Congress result of
the failure TO check the many abuses un-
der which the Indians are suffering.
Senator Robinson OF Arkansas. has already
filed n bill to divorce the Indians from the
Interior Department and to create what will
fairs. During tho period when the Senate is
waiting for the House to dispose OF the
appropriation bills he hopes to press his bill
to passage through the Senate.

vice into separate department. IT is hoped
to make II more responsive and mors re-
sponsible to the general public.
There appears to be strong arguments In
favor OF the Robinson plan. The Indians
own property worth $1,000. Oc0 900. including
100000 acres of oil-producins lands. great
upwards OF s25 900. 900. 1t is urged that the
Interior Department is waterlogged with It's
many branches OF the public service. and
that the Indians will have better chance
for Justice and fair treatment under a de-
partment devoted solely to the admlnistra-
ton OF their affairs.
The reorganized Civil Commission on In
dian Affairs VIII meet In Washington tho
first week OF February and will take up "a
number of important matters relating to In
dian administration. The commission will
check up on the abuses disclosed by tho re-
cent congressional Investigations. and II Is
expected to 30 into the question OF why the
conditions disclosed in the White Earth and
other reservations have not been remedlod.
