made by DR.. ]. ]. Osuna in an address to
the students of the summer school at the
final ASSEMBLY, held last week in Rio Pie
dras. The title of DR.. Osuna is address
was The magnitude of Porto Rico's ed
ucationaI problem as | see it," and in
the course of his hours talk to 500
teachers he made a number of energetic
attacks on the islands present system of
public instruction.
Taking up first the question of the
extension of the school system he point
ed out that any community that fails to
offer educational advantages to 500 Of
its children of school age had before it
a tremendously significant and even a
critical problem. Especially, he said. is
this true in a democracy where the intro
duction of self government demands at
least elementary educational preparation
for citizenship. Porto Rico has 200, 600
children for whom no opportunity for
mental and moral training is provided,
he said,
The educational question here, Osu-
ma said, is essentially an elementary
school problem. Fifty-One per cent Of
those in our public school system never
get beyond the first two grades, 1919
stop at the end of the third year and 1870
end their schooling after completing the
fourth grade. The remaining 17M drop
out from the 5th grade in the elementary
school to the graduating classes OF the
University.
Ds Osuna told his listeners that the
present conventional curriculum of the
elementary school consisting chiefly of
English, Spanish and arithmetic fails to
bring the pupils into intelligent contact
with their environment and to prepare
them for healthy and useful lives as cit
liens of the island.
They learn nothing" be said, of
the form of vegetable and animal life
that they see constantly about them.
They are not taught the story Of our ma.
tive plants nor any thing of our birds
and insects. Much of the disease from
which the island suffers could be guarded
against by a wise and sane program of
teaching in our elementary schools.
Prof. Osuna gave new consideration
to the secondary and university educa-
tional problems. He held that the three
divisions, elementary, secondary and
university instruction were essential to
the mental and moral progress of the
island and no one could be sacrificed to
adv; nee the others.
"A school system without a public
university" he said, is like a house
without a roof, without a secondary
school system it resembles a house with

l!lS resort to arms to prevent their enforcement, while Ala bama threatened to secede from the Union if Indian statutes were rendered effective.
 It was harsh tutelage which the Indians of the United States underwent. It was not until Grant became President that the responsibility of the Nation was recognized. With an in- tegrlty and courage equal to that of Washington, he ap- pointed commission to ex- anime into the Indian situa- tlon, and adopted the reserva- tlon system, Congress itself has never deemed it within it's undoubted "plenary power over the tribal relations of the In- dians" to deprive them of their property rights without some form of compensation. Such a practice would not only be violative of the decisions of the Supreme Court of the United States, but would be contrary to the Law of Na- tions. Civilized states, though possessing plenary political power over their inhabitants, do not confscate the private property of dependent people.
 It must, therefore, come as a distinct shock to Congress and the people of the United States to learn that 148 years after the United States assum- ed political jurisdiction over the Indians, 138 years after the Constitution was adopted, the Department of Justice, on behalf of the Secretary of the Interior, the Secretary of Agri- culture, and the Secretary of War, who together constitute the Federal Power Commission under the act of 1920, should argue in the Court of Appeals of the District of Columbia, the second highest court in the land, in effect that the fifth amendment to the Constitution guaranteeing private property rights is not applicable to the Indians of the United States that Congress can confscate their property without re- course on their part to the courts!

 about 15O,O00 full-blooded tri- bal Indians who, with other legal Indians, hold in common tribal lands that have not vet been allotted in severalty. Un- der the existing law the un- allotted tribal lands of these Indians necessarily remain un- der the control of the United States, and, though the tribal Indians, like all others, are citizens, it is clear that until they are prepared and elect to take their lands in severalty the Government is morally bound to continue in the re- lation of political guardian while charging the trust with respect to their property inn posed by the act of June2, 1924.
 Although the Indians, meas ured by European standards, were the most moral people known to history, the colonial Englishman's Church deemed them the "spawn of hell," to be extlrpated in the spirit of the Old Testament. (The Puritan in Holland, England, and America, Campbel1.) Desirous ot their lands the frontierman invented the useful fiction that people who had occupied de- f7nlte tribal domains from time lm1nemorial, were nonads with out attachment to the soil.
 With such view extant among the so-cal1ed civilized whites, 1t was not unnatural that the Indian should have become fierce in the defense of his lands-,at times -cruel-and that the idea should have gained credence that ''the only good Indian is a dead Indian"
 In vain Washington, who knew his fellow countrymen and was not deceived by them, sought to prevent the massacre of the Indians and protect them in their admitted rights. The Constitution itself forbade the acquisition of their lands save by United States treaties. Nev York ignored the Consti- tuition and the statues.

A TRUE PICTURE 0F INDIAN SITUATION

A few month ago Jennings C. Wise, of Washington, D. C., counsel for the Indian Board of Cooperation of California, wrote most brilliant essay en- titled "A plea for the Indian citizens of the United States" This interesting and valuable article was subsequently, favor ably referred to on the Floor of the U. s. Senate by the Hon. w. c. Bruce, of Maryland. He declared, Tn my humble iudg- ment this essay not only de- serves to be inserted in the Congressional Record but should have a place in every library in the land"
 In view of the interest that is being taken in Alaska in the Indian question, this interest ing article might be read with much profit and enlightenment by the public generally. Limit ed space prevents publication ot the essay in full but the following excerpts are pro- duced:
The Alaska fisherman., 1926-06-15

By the act of Congress ap- proved June 2, 1924, however, every noncitizen Indian born within the territorial limits of the United States was declared to be a citizen of the United states. Thus, 148 years after the United States had assumed political jurisdiction over the Indians, they were elevated from the status of a depend ent political wardship to that of full citizenship, and as citizens, with all the constitu- tional rights of such, assumed a definite place in the body polite of the Nation.
 The effect of the transforma- tion which they have under gone has not been fully rec ognized. Whatever the status of the United States with re- spect to the property of the political wards of the Nation may have been prior to June 2. 1924, the enfranchising act of that date, it is submitted, definitely fixed it's status as the trustee at law of so much of the property of the Indians as remained in its hands.
