OF dry law violation, 10 charging that
politics and politicians are responsible
In large part for the bootleggers and
the large supplies Of rum obtainable In
this country since prohibition came in.
Senator Wheeler's description Of the
conditions existing on the Indian
reservations follows q personal inquiry
and actual visit to the reservations. He
does not bring secondhand informa-
ton. The Government, apparently,
has been woefully lacking in its care
Of the wards of the Nation" who,
by treaty years ago. placed themselves
and their property in the hands Of the
Great White Father" The Montana
Senator calls attention to the fact that
control Of the Indian Bureau Of the In
terror Department.
Almost without exception" says
Senator Wheeler, I'VE found that rs
per cent Of the Indians were affected
with tuberculosis. On one reservation
we were told that so per cent Of them
were affected"
tuberculosis is only one Of the dis
eases which have attacked them. And
the hospital conditions and care Of the
Indians who are Ill, he says, are half
a century behind the times. The on
Gals Of the Indian Bureau, he says,
admit the conditions, but say they have
appealed to Congress for aid in vain.
mo funds" has been the answer. 1t is
Senator Wheeler's contention that had
the funds and resources which belong to
the Indian tribes themselves been used
eflciently conditions could have been
vastly improved for them.
Not only has Uncle Sam failed in his
duty to his Indian wards, in proper
care for their health, but, according to
Senator Wheeler, he has been grossly
negligent in his efforts to train the
Indians to be farmers or mechanics, to
educate them and make them capable
Of living lives more useful to them
selves and to their communities. He
charges. too, that for 70 years the Gov
eminent has been handling the moneys
Of the Indians but has never given the
Indians any accounting. And last, but
not least, he insists that the Indians
in some instances have been brutally
treated by the agents.
Senator Wheeler lays the fault ut
the feet Of the politicians, who, he says,
have influence with members of the
Senate and House. It Is because Of the
politicians that incompetent, or worse,
Indian agents and employees of the
bureau in the field have not been
eliminated. In the end, the charge
comes home to members Of Congress
themselves. THE Indian" he says,
has paid political debts for, 10, these
many years!"
The investigation Of the situation
with regard to the Indians, now being
conducted, should, If pushed through
adequately and backed up with facts
and recommendations, have its in
fluence with Congress and the Execu-
tive and bring about much needed re-
forms. The days when Indians were
q menace to this Government and to
isolated white communities in the West
have long since passed, even If that
were once q poor excuse for the treat
ment which has been accorded to the
Indian. It Is time that Uncle Sam
should give that care to his Indian
wards which humanity and present-day
civilization demand, adding even extra
measure for past negligence.

Lo. the Poor Indian!

Senator Burton x. Wheeler Of Nom
tana, Q member Of the Senate Indian
affairs committee which has been in
vestigating the conditions Of the Amer
lean Indian on the reservations set
aside by the Government, paints q
black picture Of the situation. It re-
fleets no credit on the Government.
And Senator Wheeler, In the final
analysis Of the situation, attributes
most Of the abuses to politics and the
influence Of politicians. Almost at the
same time, Mrs. Mabel Walker WILLIE

Domestic Relations Clinics.

The recommendation Of the Chill
dren's Bureau that domestic relations
clinics be set up in American COM
launities is in line with progressive
thought on social problems.
These clinics would be stated by
physicians, sociologists, psychiatrists
and psychologists competent, because Of
special training In intricate fields. to
get ct the roots Of family difficulties.
They would deal with problems which.
with all due respect. courts hardly are
competent to handle.

by animal life.
It appears here that wasps. like the
rest of us, are social" on the one hand,
SOLITARY" on the other. 1t Is with the
latter that Mr.. Reinhard set up the
long fellowship from which this clearly
charming wasp story came to pass. The
common fields are MIR. Reinhards hunt
ing ground. Then suddenly, under the
urge Of drama, fields become q stage
across which the actors move In some
tremendous effort to climax action
with success and triumph. And how
much like us they do behave!
And why should they not behave like
us. since about the same quality OF
problem besets us all? There are only
two fundamental elements in life-for
man, insect, tree, whatnot-food ana
self-perpetuation. But one, really, since
the flrst of these Is part OF the second.
It Is around such q center that the
world has been built, the man world,
like this that Mr.. Reinhard evolves a
true story, scientific in content and, at
the same time q tale Of romance and
adventure. Here the solitary wasp Is
seen at home, tending to the business
of getting food, taking care Of the
Young. looking out for any menace TO
the family integrity. In the spare
moments Of such ardors the wasp. ike
the rest of us, has developed q phtloso-
ply. o mode Of life based upon certain
facts, called basic and potential, Ac-
cording to this philosophy he appears
to try to regulate his life. When 1t
fails him, or he fails it, then come
troubles, disagreements, family ana
other wise, out Of which emerge defeat
or victory. Here are moments OF clear
romance and moments OF work-a-day

Student Loans Sound,
Surrey Discloses

NEW YORK, Dec. seven
wears OF experience with loans to
college students To help them in
their studies has shown the Har.
mon Foundation that doctors,
dentists. lawyers, and ministerial
students are among the classes Of
borrowers who most frequently
get far behind in their payments.
The experience discloses. how
ever, the economic soundness OF
student loan paper.
In a report Of its activities
made public yesterday the Har-
mon Foundation revealed that
since 1922 1t has lent more than
100000 to students. s,138 loans
having been made.
Teachers were found to be the
class Of persons who not only
were most prompt in payments,
but made their payments in ad-
vance Of due dates.
Another unusual feature Of the
report is that the foundation does
not regard ministers as the best
references. Their business In
life IS to look on the optimistic
side Of human nature and hope
and believe in the best. outcome.
The very qualities that make a
man a good minister are apt to
initiate against his ability to pick
q good financial risk" the report
says.
AS q result Of this experience :
the report states, referring to all
factors in the administration OF
the fund, st would appear that
banking institutions would be
quite justified in making properly
administered educational loans to-
vigorously qualified students. III
