KLAMATH F.iLLS, Ore.. July 6. fP) Secretary Wilbur of the In terior depart men t, declared today that the new iolly of the Indian bureau contemplated the complete breaking up of reservation life as soon as it is possible to train tho young Indian to handle bin affairs. The interior depart mcnl head aiupiried his previously stated pol icy here in a community immedi ately adjacent to the Klamath res ervation where the Indian question la acutely local. He conferred with a number of p roup concerning local tribal af fairs before continuing his tour of inspection of interior department proJectH in the weut. He planned a two-day visit to Crater Lake Na tional park. "Am a reat white father, the American Roverrment hat been more than slightly off color," the secretary declared. "Kcserva lions have been little more than jails for I n d ia its a n d rese r vat io n I i f c has been jail life. I have no de lusions as to changing tho situa tion over nifiht. but the time has come for a start to be made and we are making the start with nec essary changes In the type of edu cation now afforded the Indian. "We should be able to break up Hie reservation In 25 years," he said. Dr. Wilbur said that he expected tile .Indian bureau to submit to the next congress a bill which he hoped would solve some of the problems now facing the bureau. This legis lation, he said, will supersede a mass of previous measures which ho described as antiquated. I41MS Obsolete. "At the present time we have 2.000 statutes concerning the gov ernment of tlie Indians on the books," he said, "and there are more than treaties, the ma jority of them as applicable as the one William Penn made. "The number of decisions on In dian cases is greater than on all the American merchant marine, and during the last congress one seventh of the bills passed con cerned Indian affairs." he declar ed. "The Indian problem is all wrapped up In legislation, most of it ancient and new legislation, mod ern and up to da) compact In form and clear in meaning, should he considered by congress," Dr. Wilbur told citizens of Klam ath Falls that as secretary of the Interior he was "calling for a new deal for the young Indian and r square deal for the old ones." He said that proper business adminis tration of Indian property was im possible under present laws, either by Indians or by business adminis trators selected by the Indians. In answer to a question, he said tha the incorporation of Indian property and its management un der modern business methods would be seriously considered. "There Is a middle ground be tween the sentimentalists who think the Indian is perfect and a glorified martyr and tho other group which thinks he is another 'redskin to bite the dust.'" Dr. Wilbur said. "We are going to gel In that middle ground and stay there until we are finished with the Indians." Baseball Scores -American.
