Answer:
When Miguel Trujillo, from Isleta Pueblo and a veteran of the Marine Corps during World War II, went to register to vote, he was told by the county registrar, Eloy Garley, that he could not register since he was an Indian living on a reservation.Trujillo was incensed. He brought suit against the county registrar and won. (Trujillo v. Garley) Felix Cohen, who had written the definitive book on Indian law, the Handbook of Federal Indian Law, was Trujillo’s attorney. Finally, in 1948, Indians in New Mexico could vote for the first time. Trujillo and Cohen became friends and worked on other issues of civil rights in New Mexico and in the South.The case also debunked the myth that Indians did not pay taxes. The only taxes Indians did not pay, the court said, was taxes on the land the government held in trust for them. They had to pay sales taxes, income taxes, and all other taxes.

Explanation:
When it came to the Congress to approve the joining of the United States in the League of Nations it was blocked by the Republican opposition, especially from Senators William Borah and Henry Cabot (D).
The U. S. public opinion was still disappointed over the outcomes of the war. Also, the Republican Senators did not like what they thought to be a violation of the U.S. sovereignity: the covenant of the League in it's Article X predicted that in case of a member being attacked all the others should defend it.
This added to the historical isolationism of U.S. diplomacy stopped the country from joining the League of Nations despite its inspiration on President Woodrow Wilson’s Fourteen Points.
