Mystery in Dates in Senate Report
Washington reports a quiet, dated mystery in the Senate Indian affairs review. The Office of Indian Affairs, 120 years old, now spends about 30,000,000 yearly for 400,000 Indians yet faces questions on assimilation, schooling, land allotments, and the fate of boarding schools. A June report allegedly criticized the office and proposed closing boarding schools by month’s end, but a misdated section sparked questions. The House opens its own probe with support from the Indian office.
