Indians Released
"From U. S. Control
x Victims of Crooks
Washington, Dec. 9. There are
many instances in which Indians re
leased "from government guardian"
ship have been victimized by "un
scrupulous" expoiters who made
plans "to rob the Indian even before
the latter had. received his certifi
cate of independence," according to
the annual report of the Indian com
missioners. The bureau, ,on this
ground, vigorously opposes blanket
release of the government wards,
which, it says, has been increasing
ly agitated for some years.
The removal of restrictions from
Indians is an individual not a group-lhad
question the Report said, Except
ing for those , people who have a
larger proportion of white than In
dian blood." Iir the latter case. In
dians should be given full control
of money orproperty held in trust
for them by the government as
soon as possible, the commissioners
said. Where these with half or
more Indian blood are involved,
however, thecommissioners are "de
cidedly opposed" to wholesale, re-,
moval of restrictions."
