RED MEN FLOURISH
Idea Th^t Indians Arc Dying Out j
Is Erroneous.
Probably the Race It Scarcely Lew

Shores of America.

is ???rcciy less numerous today than
whiu Columbus discovered America,
startling as this assertion may be
swurmlng with red men. it Is freely
?dvaneed by experts of the govern*
Wt-Nl'b Indian bureau, who maintalD
t.'iHt the Indian necessarily formed
an exceedingly scant population which
probably at no period materially ex
ceeded the total of $$3,702 Indian* re
ported by the bureau for last year.
"The Tmllan no longer Is to be
thought of as a dylug race," declared
Dr. Lawrence W. White, an Indian au
thority of the bureau. "In support of
that statement It Is nccessary, In the
first place, to disabuse the public
mind of the tradition handed down
by discoverers and early colonists that
American forests In their day swarmed
with the dusky fijaraa of the red man.
As the India* aeft?9ed agriculture
| Almost complete!;*. It is htgljip tnV
probable that this country, consider
ing its latitude, could have supported
more than several hundred thousand
of bis race."
"On the other hand," Doctor White
continued, "the Indian In the present
day, after periods of sharp decrease
following as ajialy_rul_ieajctiou-to-sud^
den contact with the civilization of
? the white man;~ts seen to be making
substantial gains in population.
"While many estimates or guesses
of the Indian population, were made
during the past century," said Doctor
WhI'e, "ranging from less than 100,
Oft) to 400,000, the tirst reliable cen
sus was made by the Indian bureau In
_ 18 70, when the population was placed
at PIS, 712. So figures demonstrate
that In the last 50 years the Indian
population has mnde a substantial
net gain."
Pointing to statistics which show an
cxcess of births over deaths of 1,522
In 1010, and almost as great an ex
cess In 1917, normal years which were
uot affected by the epidemic of In
fluenza, Doctor White declared these
figures "fully reflected the generosity
of n government that has Increased
its Indian health appropriation alone
fiom $40,000 in n 1911 to $350,000 In
1017 and subsequent years." They
demonstrate, he said that with the
schools, hospitals and other advan
tages now provided for them, the In
dian, . be he tribesman or freedman,
Is "not a dyllng race,* but rather >a
flourishing one." .Had he been treat
ed as .pther nations have treated sav
age tribes, Doctor White concluded,
there probably would not be a "ves
tige of the race within our republic
today.", ;
London's Slow Library Methods.
? Before war started Germauy was
planning a library large enough to
hold 10,000,000 hooka Aft hough this
would have been the largest library In
the world, it is by no means certain
that It would have been the most use
ful. Students and business men, too,
| find the New York public library much
| .more generally helpful than the Brit
! Ish museum library, though the latter
possesses three times as many, books.
Comparatively few Londoners, says a
contemporary, can spare the time to
1 visit Bloorasbury and sit vacantly for
an hour under the great dome of the
(reading room while the books required
are being sought.

It was during the evening rush hour
on- a Central car in Indianapolis a few
nights ago and every available inch of
standing and pitting room was taken
while men passengers were even cling
ing to tbe steps. The car stopped at
* corner for two men who were wait
ing to board it and the conductor
shouted out: "Just move up front,
, please? there'* plenty of room.",
From the ' platform where he was
wedged In so tightly he could not
move, there piped up a sarcastic boy
