Featured review
Indian agent
When government agent Hutchins stops delivery of food supplies to an Indian reservation, the natives understandably become restless. Cowpunchers Dave and Chito stop the Indians from going on the warpath but then they have to find out what is happening to the missing supplies ...
An above average Tim Holt western that paints a sympathetic treatment of Native Americans, with the white guys clearly the ones in the wrong, namely crooked businessman Harry Woods and corrupt Bureau of Indian Affairs agent Tom Keene who have conspired to steal supplies from the local tribe and sell them to a nearby mining town. Holt and Chito discover this and plans to stop them in the usual slam bang manner. The narrative has a spring in its step and there's a human quality in this entry.
