WEALTH 18 Cl'RHE OF
THE AMERICAN INDIAN j
V *_
MOHAWK LAKE, N. Y„ Oct 27 |
Wealth is one of the chief curses of1
the American Indian, according to,
George Vaux .chairman of the United
States board of Indian commission
ers, who spoke last night before the
Lake Mohawk conference on the In
dian and other dependent peoples.
Mr. Vaux’s subject was “The Pauper
ism of Riches; An Indian Paradox.”
He cited as an example of the
Osage tribe, each member of which
he said, is worth $10,000 in land and
mineral wealth, and has a substantia!
income from gas and oil royalties.
These Indians, he declared, are in
debt, and totally lacking in incentive
to work or to educate their children
along useful lines.
