The Economic Basis of Indian Life
This paper focuses on trends in the economic position of the American Indian and discusses programs to spur Indian development. The rapid growth in Indian income and occupational status in comparison to blacks and whites is indicated. However, these gains have been made primarily by urban, as opposed to reservation, Indians. Despite economic progress, 50 percent of reservation Indians and 20 percent of urban Indians obtained incomes below the pov…
Education, Unemployment and Economic Growth
The Economic and Social Status of the American Indian, 1940-1970
There are an estimated 800,000 American Indians living in the United States with approximately 450,000 residing on or adjacent to reservations.1 The remainder have been assimilated, to varying degrees, into the dominant society. Although the vast majority of Indians reside west of the Mississippi River, there are sizable numbers of Indians as far East as Maine and North Carolina. The Navajo Reservation, in parts of Arizona, New Mexico, and Utah, …

Occupational Status and Unemployment of Nonwhite Women
The purpose of this paper is to analyze two important dimensions of the relative economic status of nonwhite women, namely occupational position and unemployment. It is found that Negro women have made major gains in upgrading their occupational status, but that for a variety of reasons their relative unemployment rates have increased
Education, Migration and Negro Unemployment
The purpose of this paper is to provide an explanation concerning the behavior of the non-white/white unemployment ratio from 1930–66. Two factors are considered, namely the influence of education as measured by years of schooling, and the importance of nonwhite migration from the South. It is argued that while these factors appear to have relevance in a study of adult workers, neither factor can explain the teenage nonwhite/white unemployment ra…
A Comparison of Quality Characteristics in Negro and White Public Colleges and Universities in the South
The purpose of this paper is to compare the quality characteristics of 105 predominantly white state colleges in the Southern and Border states with the quality characteristics of the 29 predominantly Negro state colleges in these areas.2 The bulk of the data is taken from James Cass and Max Birnbaum's Comparative Guide to American Colleges (1968-69 edition) and the data are, in most cases, for the 1967-68 school year.3
Some Aspects of American Indian Migration
This paper is a study of federally assisted American Indian migration from the reservations to urban areas. The education of the migrants, their earnings before and after relocation, and the change in the degree of antisocial behavior after leaving the reservation are analyzed. It is found that while relocation can enhance the standard of living of those participating in federal programs, budget limitations prevent these programs from assisting e…
