Charles Fletcher Lummis appreciates Secretary Hitchcock’s courtesy in removing the Warner Ranch paragraph from the Jenkins report. However, his complaint against the paragraph was not that it was offensive but that it was false. Lummis has attempted to work with Inspector Jenkins but if Jenkins continues to scandalize the local Office of Indian Affairs and its employees he will take action.
