Declaring that the United States

Tahan, who is better known by his
American name. DIR. j.. X. Griffis,
flayed the Indian Office for it's "in-
Justice" toward the red man in an
address at the City Club forum
luncheon yesterday.
"The Congress has appropriated
SIC .000.0 at various times for the
building Of Indian schools" he
said. This sum Is sufficient to
build one $4,000 schoolhouse for
every 400 Indian children. There
are thousands of Indian children
who have no school facilities.
Where has that money gone?
THE longer you have this In
dian Office in power the more
money you tax payers must con
tribute. The Indian Commissioners
on the reservations exsScise more
power than the Car of Russia ever
had. ~.
''The Indians are being system
atically robbed of their lands. In
parts of the Pueblo Reservation
there is just one acre left for, each
Pueblo, from which he must make
a living for his family. 1t has been
misrepresented to Congress that the
