Indians Part in the War.

Probably nothing is of greater inter

or the part the Indians played In the
war. and the benefit military service
has proved to them. So noteworthy
has this been that the heading given
to this section of the report is "War
as n Civilizer" "Probably nothing
more helpful has come to this ancient
race" it reads. than the enrolment
Of 10000 Of its sons simply as Ameri-
can soldiers to challenge the barbarous
rule of central Europe. The immedi-
ate benefit comes from the equal op-
portunity they had with their white
comrades for gaining knowledge. for
maturing judgment. for developing
courage through contact with events
and conditions"
Numerous Indians won medals and
recognition for distinguished service
abroad. Their citations rank them
with the bravest of the brave The
most striking is that of Private Joseph

tation reads ms follows:
"Under violent barrage, Private
Oklahombi dashed to the attack of an
enemy position, covering about 21O
yards through barbed-wire entangle-
ments. He rushed on machine gun
nests. capturing III prisoners. He
stormed a strongly held position con-
tanning more than 80 machine guns and
a number of trench mortars Turned
