Notes:  Second Annual Report of the Bureau of Ethnic Research.  “A 1954 study of Indian health in Arizona discusses issues of health administration, including cross-cultural factors, and presents statistical overviews of Indian patients, diseases, the health of Indian children, and an appendix of tables.”  ( https://pima.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S91C1413537 ).  Consider it a baseline for all the Indian health information over the last 70 years.  VERY RARE in this original edition.
