Suggestion made for Spanish, mestizo and other castes to move into Indian pueblos. Law prohibits non- Indians from living with indios reduccidos or in Indian pueblos, but in this case exception should be made as mixture is necessary to stop hostilities. Plan presented for dividing land among Indians. (D. Uhlman, February 1988)
