The text discusses the importance of providing education for all Indian children in the United States and Alaska, highlighting the responsibility of the Federal Government in this regard. It mentions that the House of Representatives has reduced the appropriation for Indian education, with the intention of forcing states to take on more responsibility, but argues that the states are not currently equipped to do so.
