FRIDAY, JANUARY 25, 2002 Appointing a receiver to take over the Individual Indian Money (IIM) trust is not the way to reform the system, and neither is a reorganization, the Department of Interior's first Special Trustee says. Paul Homan, who was appointed by former President Bill Clinton to reform Indian trust but left in a dispute with former Secretary Bruce Babbitt, says the solution is to create a goverment-overseen trust corporation. Once reforms are implemented, then the reins can be handed back to the Interior, he said. Get the Story:
