- Abstract
The article presents an essay on the appointment of Herman Bendell as superintendent of Indian Affairs of Arizona Territory.

Wolf focused his essay on his experiences in the matter of Bendell's appointment. He highlighted in the essay that the post of supervising the affairs of the Indian should go to an American citizen of Jewish faith, especially of the medical profession. Simon was instrumental in securing the appointment of Dr. Bendell for the post.
