- Description:
- The document is from Lloyd Taylor to Senator Dewey Bartlett discussing concerns about the tight budget for Indian education and the lack of explanation for why funding for Indian schools was not increased. Taylor questions the priorities of the government and the lack of resources for home economics programs at Riverside Indian School. He also questions why the administration is not prioritizing the education of minority group children and criticizes the allocation of funds for events like the Grand National Quail Hunt. Taylor urges the Senator to address these issues and consider the humanitarian concern for all individuals to have access to educational benefits.
