What does Dr. Landinez suggest Bruce do about the rumors that are circulating?

Dr. Landinez suggests that Bruce ignore the rumors. Dr. Landinex tells him that it is natural that people talk. Because the Motilones are a fascinating group and no one has ever been able to do anything with them, there is no way to prove or disprove anything said about them. He tells Bruce to do his work, be honest with the Indians, and let everyone think what they want to think. Dr. Landinez says that otherwise, Bruce will not be able to get any work done.
