Congres.s Will have to nuke provi

have to talco care or their own schools
heenuse the Indians cannot bo taxed.
Some provision must also ri made for
the construction and maintenance ot
roads and bridges but that probltti
will be left for the futuro government
to solve. Uufortunately when congress
was disposing or the Indlnn land.i
they wero all exempted from taxa-

educational purposes. The prestden'
wlll recommend that tho trust Tunds
