Changes in Indian~related policies of the federal government, the establishment of Indian studies programs in schools throughout the country, and ever~increasing scholarly research activities involving all aspects of Indian history reflect the heightened awareness of the original Americans, their heritage and their future. Concurrent with this activity has been a significant increase in the use of Indian~related documents and materials in the custody of the National Archives and Records Service. The intention of the National Archives Conference on Research in the History of Indian~White Relations was to highlight the rich potential of these holdings through presentations of papers based largely on research in the records. The collection of edited papers and commentaries presented in Indian~White Relations: A Persistent Paradox spans a period of a century and a half and covers a wide range of research topics presenting many diverse points of view. F. Paul Prucha's thought~provoking "Doing Indian History" is followed by considerations of such controversial subjects as Indian assimilation in the nineteenth century by Herman J. Viola and Henry E. Fritz with commentaries by Robert F. Berkhofer, Jr., and Loring B. Priest; the role of the military by Robert M. Utley with a commentary by Richard N. Ellis; and Indian reservation policy by William T. Hagan and Kenneth R. Philp with commentaries by Roy W. Meyer, Mary E. Young, and W. David Baird. Finally, some aspects of twentieth~century federal Indian policy are discussed in a commentary by D'ArcyMclvickle and in papers by Lawrence C. Kelly and Louis R. Bruce, former commissioner of the Bureau of Indian Affairs. Also included are discussions of source materials both inside and outside the National Archives system. Oliver W. Holmes, the former executive director of the National Historical Publications Commission, provides a general discussion of Indian~related records in the National Archives and their use, and Carmelita S. Ryan outlines the standards used in appraising Indian records for permanent retention. John C. Ewers discusses use of artifacts and pictures as documentation, Angie Debo describes major Indian record collections in Oklahoma, and C. Gregory Crampton provides an introduction to the archives of the Duke projects in American Indian oral history.…
