In addition to the 7 industries already operated. some under the Sperry Co.. some under the Bulova Watch Co.. and so forth. we find that the Commissioner of Indian Affairs is considering 2 other places. so that at least 9 tribes will have industries on. at. or near the reservation. The situation is ridiculous. I happen to be chairman of the Refugee Subcommittee of the Committee on the Judiciary. We deal with refugees from all over the world. Consider the small country of Germany. and contrast it with the United States. Germany was defeated In the war. and was practically without a government. Millions of refugees poured in. Kurt Erhart. a professor of political economy. was appointed to deal with the situation. Eight million refugees have been integrated into the German economy. Each one has his own home. Each one has his own job. So Germany has taken care of 8 million refugees. but we in the United States. who in Fourth of July orations. boast about what a great country we havethe richest and finestand express our pride in the United States. should be ashamed of the fact that since 1824 we have not been able to assimilate among our citizenry 233.000 Indians. In one State in the Union. Indians are not even allowed to attend public schools.
