to make Indians want to be self-
sufficient and to help them be
so. 1 )
Emmons said attempts are be-
ing made to raise the health and
educational standards and to re-
locate Indians away from the
reservations.
Emmons said the Indian popu
lation is growing too big for the
reservations.
A third part of the program.
Emmons said, is to bring indus-

tions so Indians can support
themselves by working in indus-
trial plants instead of depending
on agriculture.
