Court Prohibits Use of Treaty Funds for Sectarian Schools

Justice Gould ruled treaty funds cannot be used by government officials to pay for Indian education at sectarian schools. Only the Sioux trust fund of 3 million dollars with 5 percent interest may be applied to such education upon request, affecting Catholic and Protestant institutions serving Sioux Indians. The case arose from a $27,000 contract with Catholic Indian congregations for Bronx Indians, with opponents arguing no federal money may support sectarian education. Lawyers included Kagar H. Gans for Catholic Indian Bureau and Charles C. Binney for the Indian Rights Association.
