Abstract

"Regarding Claim No. 222 before the Indian Claims Commission, it seems logical that there could be no bases for rights, beyond the possibility of thin moral rights, were not original occupancy itself deeply submerged in time and the influences of overrunning cultures. The Indians have built up a halo of mystery about their past because they have no written records of that past. And their conduct with respect to the war years, as shown on the written record, is debatable. Rare is the instance, I feel, where a claim should not be made to stand on the written, documented record."
