Abstract
- A Sequoya League investigation of Charles E. Burton, superintendent and special distributing agent of the Navajo and Moqui (Hopi) Indians, has found that Burton has "repeatedly and flagrantly violated" service rules by flogging Native Americans. Burton also forced Native American men to cut their hair. An official government investigation found wrongdoing but could not substantiate all of the Sequoya League's findings.
