Washington Pow-Wow
Yankton Native Americans of the Sioux nation, many of them survivors of the Battle of the Little Bighorn, meet with US Government officials for a feast and council over land rights, at the Metropolitan Club, Washington D.C., circa 1925. Among the politicians present are (centre): Secretary of War John W. Weeks, Third Assistant Secretary of State J. Butler Wright, and Assistant Secretary of the Navy Theodore D. Robinson. Sitting in the front row (centre, with peace pipe) is Secretary of the Treasury Andrew W. Mellon. (Photo by FPG/Hulton Archive/Getty Images)
