Dr. Whyte's article on the settlement house role in its community has so many apt parallels to the situation in the United States Indian Service, that I thought it would be valuable to point out the similarities. I will make the statements here in terms of the Indian Service, although the stimulation comes from what Whyte states for the settlement house. In the majority of cases, I can even copy his own phrasing word for word. With such striking resemblances in such different institutions as settlement houses and Indian Service, it is obvious that there is something here from the general American scene that is influencing both institutions
