on february 21, 1928, "the problem of indian administration", an 872-page document known as the meriam report, for lewis meriam, its technical director, was published by johns hopkins press. the report received wide acclaim as the most comprehensive survey of american indians ever conducted. mckenzie's influence as specialist in existing material related to indians was significant, and along with henry roe cloud as indian advisor, and technical director lewis meriam, served on all the committees and co-authored the final report. the meriam report revealed the failures of federal indian policies and how they had contributed to severe problems with indian education, health, and poverty. the report marked an ideological shift in american indian policy, calling for a restoration of self-government and communal land to tribes and a reversal of long-standing u.s. government laws to eliminate indian reservations. acting upon the emergency recommendations of the meriam report, president herbert hoover directed commissioner charles j. rhoads of the bureau of indian affairs to prepare a reform package for improved medical facilities, adequate food and clothing and the closure of unpopular reservation boarding schools. on june 18, 1934, within five years of the meriam report, president franklin d. roosevelt signed the indian reorganization act, restoring self-government and communal land to tribes and reversing long-standing u.s. government laws to eliminate indian reservations. popularly known as the indian new deal, the initiative was administered by progressive john collier, commissioner of the bureau of indian affairs from 1933 to 1945.
