The Indian Bureau and Self-Government: A Reply

Dr. John Embree's article on American Indian matters, and your editorial remarks concerning it, have to be dealt with. The reasons are both practical and intellectual. I commence by stating my high regard for John Embree in those matters, mostly Far Eastern, of which he has authentic knowledge, and for Human Organization, a publication of which I make use all the time. I then remark: Embree's American Indian article contains extreme misinformation and non-information, and with innocent intention supports a number of legislative raids against Indian social rights and property which currently are under way. Your editorial remarks add an oblique sort of support.
