SCOPE AND CONTENT NOTE The following microfilm publication presents the Records of the Bureau of Indian Affairs, 1907 1939, filmed from the holdings of the National Archives and Records Administration, Washington, D.C. This collection consists of the documents composing decimal numbers 800 (Education, General), 801 (Rules and Regulations), and 802 (Compulsory Education), primarily dating from the 1930s. The files include correspondence, reports, surveys, school newsletters, attendance rolls, and photographs exchanged between the Indian agencies listed in the Table of Contents and the Bureau of Indian Affairs in Washington D.C. Prominent correspondents include John Collier, Willard W. Beatty, Paul L. Fickinger, and Samuel H. Thompson, as well as local social workers, educational field agents, principals, and teachers. The 1930s marked a period of transition for Indian schools. Many boarding schools were closing down. Some were converting into day schools while others were transferring students to existing Indian day and public schools. The changes did not always run smoothly. Proposals to integrate Indian students into public schools were accepted more readily in the 1930s than in previous decades, but some communities still put up a formidable resistance. In 1933 employees of the Sante Fe Railroad near the Colorado River agency signed a petition to keep Indian children out of white schools. John Collier responded to the action diplomatically but firmly: It is difficult to believe that citizens in any American community can take so unenlightened an attitude regarding Indian people as your petition suggests, and I am assuming that the attitude indicated in this petition represents only a temporary misunderstanding (Reel 2, Frame 0777). The U.S. government paid tuition for each Indian child attending public and day schools, which meant that students had to document what percentage of Indian blood they possessed. Many letters between agencies and citizens concern the eligibility of mixed-race children. Children less than one-quarter Indian would not be enrolled at government expense, regardless of extenuating circumstances. The health of students is an ever-present topic in the reports and correspondence in this collection. School was often a child s only opportunity for medical care, and school administrators found their hands full with unhealthy students. Some agencies built special schools just for students with trachoma to isolate them from healthy children. Social workers monitored ill students and, along with principals, always noted the health condition of students on the frequent enrollment lists sent back to Washington, D.C. Home studies often revealed infirm guardians, unsanitary living conditions, and poverty so severe that some communities were faced with starvation. Educating students often came secondary to feeding them. Boarding schools came equipped with working dairies that students helped operate. Even day schools maintained gardens to help provide school meals, dovetailing the lunch program with agricultural education. Principals included menus in their reports and submitted food requirements in their annual budgets. Not every school administrator, however, took the feeding of students so seriously. An investigation of E. E. Wiley, superintendent of Colony Public School in Oklahoma, revealed he was feeding spoiled food and meals of plain hot water to Indian children. Janitors and teachers submitted testimony stating that Wiley vii

believed the students were useful only for getting their tuition money from the government and that Wiley sought to profit from the arrangement in every way possible. Despite the pressing concerns of school reorganization and student health, curricula and educational theory remained constant topics of the bureau. Education field agents and visiting teachers sat in on classes, interviewed staff, and introduced new educational materials and ideas to teachers on remote reservations. The bureau made efforts to weed out uninspiring teachers and sometimes to bring in Indian teachers and staff. Vocational training was the main objective at nearly every school, though some agents made the point that training young women for the workforce when jobs were scarce or nonexistent might not be the most effective use of tuition dollars. The bureau promoted home economics lessons and encouraged craft production as a cottage industry sometimes to the dismay of Indian leaders. Curricula are reprinted in full, as are budgets, which include lists of needed school supplies, agricultural equipment, and new buildings. The reports of the field agents provide a window into the classrooms, offering detailed descriptions of teacher attitudes, life in the school dormitories, and home studies of the communities around the schools. A particularly interesting set of documents is the daily journal entries of Edna Groves and Dwight R. Gardin during a month-long residency on a Seminole Indian reservation under threat of eviction within the Everglades National Forest. In their attempts to strike a compromise between government and Seminole interests, Groves and Gardin became well acquainted with the residents of the community and provide a vivid description of the political hierarchy (Reel 9). The issues discussed above are only a few of the topics covered in these files, which capture the educational situation on reservations across the United States. Other prominent topics include sex education, discipline, teacher conduct, and life on the reservation, among many more. An alphabetical listing of major topics and prominent persons can be found in the Subject and Principal Correspondents indexes. Related LexisNexis collections concerning the Indian experience during the first half of the twentieth century include Native Americans and the New Deal: The Office Files of John Collier, 1933 1945; Native Americans Reference Collection: Documents Collected by the Office of Indian Affairs, Part II, 1901 1948; Survey of Conditions of the Indians in the United States; Major Council Meetings of American Indian Tribes, Section I (1914 1956): Navaho, Five Civilized Tribes, Ute, Pueblo, Cheyenne, and Arapaho; Section II (1911 1956): Sioux (Standing Rock, Rosebud, Pine Ridge, and Cheyenne River), Chippewa, and Klamath; Survey of Conditions of the Indians in the United States; and Survey of Indian Reservations. viii

SOURCE NOTE The materials in this microform publication are from Record Group 75, Records of the Bureau of Indian Affairs, Entry 121: Central Classified Files, 1907 1939, in the possession of the National Archives, Washington, D.C. This publication consists of the documents composing decimal numbers 800 (Education, General), 801 (Rules and Regulations), and 802 (Compulsory Education) for the tribes, jurisdictions, agencies, and/or reservations listed in the Editorial Note. EDITORIAL NOTE The Bureau of Indian Affairs (BIA) discontinued the practice of maintaining separate ready-reference volumes of incoming and outgoing correspondence in August 1907. Thereafter, correspondence was filed according to a decimal-subject classification system, called the Central Classified Files. File numbers used to access correspondence in the old ready-reference volumes continued to be assigned to letters in order of receipt. In addition, documents were assigned to a particular subject classification and to a jurisdiction. The jurisdictions were mainly the field units of the bureau: agencies, schools, hospitals, sanitariums, warehouses, and other institutions. There were separate designations for tribes, geographical areas, and a few special topics (i.e., liquor traffic). In addition, there was an Indian Office designation for records relating to the central office of the BIA and a General Service designation for general administrative records not relating to any particular jurisdiction. This classification scheme allowed for the expeditious handling of the influx of documentation from both the jurisdictions and the tribal governments. This scheme consisted of a number of subject headings. Each heading was further subdivided by specific topics or aspects of the main subject heading. The Central Classified Files for this microfilm product span the years 1907 to 1939. Included are letters received, copies of letters sent, reports, memoranda, minutes, petitions, leases, contracts, affidavits, applications, certificates, licenses, permits, bonds, wills, other legal documents, tables, circulars, accounting records, clippings, photographs, diagrams, and blueprints grouped into the individual field units of the bureau, arranged alphabetically by name of jurisdiction, tribe, reservation, and/or agency. The records for each jurisdiction are arranged according to a decimal classification system. Within each classification there are individual dossiers or files of records relating to a specific subject. These files are arranged chronologically and thereunder by file number of the first or base letter filed therein. The ix

individual documents within a file are generally arranged in chronological order. All documents for the tribes, jurisdictions, agencies, and/or reservations listed below have been filmed in their entirety. A very small number of jurisdictions will not have documentation for one of more of the decimal numbers listed above.
