Measured by our usual American standards, the approximately 300,000 Indians living on reservations in this country still live almost at the extreme economically depressed level. The Indians own approximately 53 million acres both as tribes and as individuals. The quality of their resources varies widely. Much of it is almost barren desert land, although, in places, there are rich mineral lands, luxuriant range lands, highly productive dry land wheat areas, irrigated valleys, and commercial forests
