Abstract
AS the result of a proposal made by Mr. Wm. John Cooper, Commissioner for Education of the United States, at a meeting of the Council for Education in 1929, and with the financial assistance of the Carnegie Corporation of New York, an investigation covering a period of two years was undertaken among the natives of Alaska for the purpose of examining conditions in the system of education, and suggesting modifications, if any, necessary to bring it into greater harmony with the racial character and probable future development of the Eskimo.
