The report emphasizes the work of
the Indian bureau, whose health cam

thousand. The bureau has conducted
a campaign to save Indian babies by

Hospitals were constructed and addi-
tional physicians were employed in
the health campaigns.
Work in the Indian schools was
revised to reduce the hours of aca-
demic work and to increase the num-
Der given to vocational training. In
dian moneys carried on deposit in
state and national banks during the
year, the report says, amounted TO
$22, O0e,000; new regulations were made
for leasing oil lands of the Usage ma
ton at a high rate which, the report
estimates, in the first year will pay
100000 in royalties; 10000 acres of
Indian lands were sold for $1,666, 900
and 10000 acres were purchased for
landless Indians.

WOMEN PLANNING
LIVELY CAMPAIGN
Proposal to Have Fair Sex
Represented on the City
Council Considered at
Conference.

A meeting of representatives from
various womens civic organizations
and other women who are interested in
having a woman on the city council,
was held yesterday afternoon at Car
negie hall. The subject under imme-
date discussion was how this move
ment may belong to all women and yet
at the same time give the women's
civic club voice as an organization.
1t was agreed by all present that the
effort to have u woman as a member
of the city council was without antag-
onisms, but was desired on the ground
that the genius of men and women
represent two parts of the whole, and
that to secure a perfect administra-
ton of the larger home both the
genius of men and women must enter.
EXPECT MEN TO COOPERATE.
From the cordial response which
has already been expressed by men who
have been questioned concerning their
attitude of having woman on the
city council it is expected that the
movement will be conducted with the
cided at the conference yesterday that
Z
both men and women to participate in
the movement as soon s the necessary
machinery for action had been organ
lied through the womens civic organ
ization.
This adjustment divides the respon-
sibility between the Women's clubs and
the interested citizenry as a whole.
The matter will be further discussed in
the clubs and another joint conference
from the clubs held the afternoon of
the first Thursday in January at 2: 80
at Carnegie hall, when it is expected
that the choice of a candidate will be
considered.
The women realize that a wise
choice of a candidate Is exceedingly
necessary. Some of the men APP
