Why did the Crow reject the Indian Reorganization Act of 1934?

The selection of Robert Yellowtail as superintendent of the Crow reservation in 1934 was a significant event for the tribe, since it marked the start of a new era in which the Crows would speak for themselves and decide their own course in American history.
They rejected the Indian Reorganization Act in 1935 because of deeply-felt suspicion of the federal government's motives; the tribe wanted to continue making decisions at its own general council as it traditionally had for its whole history. Because they made this rejection of outside influence, the "reservation era" effectively ended for the Crows in 1934; they were free to pursue their chosen religion, to travel and visit wherever and whenever they pleased and enjoy traditional clan and village traditions without fear or interference.
The Act would have given the federal government ultimate control and allowed it to interfere in tribal matters. They made the right decision.
