Excerpt from Reports of the Department of the Interior for the Fiscal Year Ended June 30, 1913, Vol. 2 of 2: Administrative Reports; Indian Affairs, Territories Before giving a resume of the activities of the Indian Bureau for the last fiscal year, I deem it appropriate to invite attention to a few of the larger questions which now confront this office for solution in the administration of the affairs of the Indians. It may be interesting to note that the Indian country, under the jurisdiction of this office, covers an area almost as large as that of all the New England States and the State of New York combined.
