# Miss Navajo (film)

Miss Navajo is a 2007 independent documentary film directed by Billy Luther. It follows 21-year-old Crystal Frazier who, alongside six other Navajo women, competes in a beauty pageant for the title of Miss Navajo Nation 2005–2006.

## Summary

21-year-old Crystal Frazier lives with her family on a farm near Table Mesa, New Mexico, having recently decided to enter the Miss Navajo Nation pageant, although is initially sceptical of her chances of winning. Crystal becomes more serious about her participation in the contest when she realises that, unlike typical American beauty pageants, the competition promotes the Navajo Nation, with the winner representing the culture and serving as a role model and spokesperson for the language and traditions of the Navajo people.
The competition is held over five days at the Navajo Nation Fair, consisting of several categories testing the contestants on their Navajo knowledge and skills. The entry criteria are that all contestants must be over eighteen years old, have graduated high school, and speak the Navajo language. The contestants are tested on their knowledge about Navajo government, history, and contemporary issues including substance misuse on reservations and the role of women; their comprehension of the Navajo language; sheep butchering; and tortilla making. Each contestant also has to demonstrate one modern-day and one traditional skill or talent.
Crystal ultimately places as runner-up. A year later, she speaks about how taking part in the Miss Navajo Nation contest allowed her to meet other people and think about the responsibility, courage and leadership expected of her as a Navajo woman.

# William Brown Meloney (1878–1925)

William Brown Meloney (1878–1925) was an American journalist, writer, executive secretary to Mayor William Jay Gaynor of New York City and a historian of shipping.

## Biography

He was born on June 6, 1878, in San Francisco, California. His grandfathers were a ship captain and a shipbuilder, ran away to sea at the age of eleven. In 1896, when he was eighteen years old, he became a shipping news and political reporter in San Francisco and also started writing fiction and verse and "resolved to do what he could to further the establishment of a powerful American merchant fleet." Meloney was the son of James Meloney of Boston, Massachusetts, and Addie Meloney. His father died in Somerville, Massachusetts, in April 1898.
In 1899, Meloney, as a reporter for the San Francisco Bulletin, was assigned by editor Fremont Older to investigate Police Lieutenant Frederick L. Esola, who was a candidate to be appointed as city police chief. Meloney testified before the city's police commission, and the evening after his testimony was finished, he and another Bulletin reporter were beaten by two men in a saloon at 206 Sutter Street. Suspicions were raised that the beating was connected to the hearing, but nothing was proven.
Meloney moved to New York City in 1901 and worked seven years for the New York World newspaper, "part of the time as day city editor." In 1910 he was appointed executive secretary by newly elected Mayor Gaynor, after which he wrote several novels and plays but concentrated on a history of shipping, The Heritage of Tyre. When his book was published, Secretary of the Interior Franklin K. Lane praised it as the "best thing ever written on shipping," and Theodore Roosevelt wrote that Meloney "had the vision of one of America's great needs."
He served with the Army in France, where he was gassed during the Meuse-Argonne offensive. After returning to the U.S. in 1919, he wrote a handbook for soldiers: Where Do We Go From Here? covering practicalities such as insurance and job-search after discharge. The War Department published five million copies. He was an editorial writer on the New York Tribune for six months and then worked for five years on a biography of John Purroy Mitchel, mayor of New York from 1914 to 1917, which he completed months before he died in his country home in Pawling, New York, on December 7, 1925. The manuscript was never published but is on file in the Rare Books and Manuscript Collection of the Columbia University Library.

## Legacy

His widow, magazine editor and journalist Marie Mattingly Meloney, and a son, also named William Brown Meloney, survived him.

## Other publications

Meloney also wrote about sea shanties, in a work that was published first in Everybody's Magazine in 1914, then in book form as The Chanty Man Sings.

# Edith Maud Ellis

Edith Maud Ellis was a Quaker and was actively involved in supporting conscientious objectors during World War I.

## Early life

Edith Ellis and her identical twin sister Marian were born on 6 January 1878, the daughters of John Edward Ellis, MP and Maria Rowntree.

## World War I

In 1916, Edith became Treasurer of the Friends Service Committee, set up to support Quakers who became conscientious objectors. This committee had been set up by Yearly Meeting in 1915, to advise men of enlistment age.
In May 1918, the three officers of the Friends Service Committee were prosecuted under the Defence of the Realm Act, charged with publishing a pamphlet titled A Challenge to Militarism without submitting it to the Censor.
In their defence the Friends stated that:
    We feel that the declaration of Peace and goodwill is the duty of all Christians and ought not to be dependent upon the permission of any Government Official.
    We therefore intend to continue the publication of such leaflets as we feel it our duty to put forth, without submitting them to the Censor ...
Edith Ellis was fined £100 plus 50 guineas costs or three months imprisonment. Harrison Barrow and Arthur Watts received six months imprisonment.
An appeal was held in July 1918 but was dismissed. Edith refused to pay her fine and was imprisoned for three months in Holloway.

## Later life

In 1919, Edith turned her family home, Wrea Head Hall in Scalby, into a convalescent centre for released conscientious objectors.
In 1948, Edith gave Wrea Head and its contents to the North Riding County Council for the purposes of education.
Edith established the Edith Ellis Charitable Trust for general charitable purposes. The Trust, now named The Edith M Ellis 1985 Charitable Trust, "... aims to give small grants to a broad range of Quaker and other UK registered charities or Non Governmental Organisations."
Edith Ellis died on 27 March 1963.
# Old Age Allowance

Old Age Allowance (OAA), colloquially known as fruit money, is a Hong Kong government programme introduced in 1973 which provides monthly payments of $1,290 to elderly Hong Kong residents. There is no means test for the Higher Old Age Allowance given to recipients of age 70 or above. The Normal Old Age Allowance (NOAA) for elderly residents between the ages of 65 and 69 was only offered to people who fell below certain income and asset thresholds, but since 2013 such people are now covered by the similar but separate Old Age Living Allowance scheme instead.

## Residence requirement

OAA recipients were originally required to have been absent from Hong Kong for no more than 56 days in the year prior to the date of their application, and to be present in Hong Kong for 125 days per year thereafter. The latter limit was relaxed to 60 days in 2011, but this still meant that people who had retired in mainland China or abroad and did not often return to Hong Kong were ineligible. A 2012 challenge to these residence requirements before Judge Johnson Lam in the Court of First Instance failed. In his ruling, Lam suggested that the applicant apply for the means-tested Portable Comprehensive Social Security Assistance (CSSA) instead.
In 2013, the Social Welfare Department began accepting applications for OAA from Hong Kong residents who lived in Guangdong. However, receipt of payments continued to require an account at a Hong Kong bank, which proved difficult for some recipients whose banks told them they could not maintain an account without a Hong Kong address.

## Means testing

Recipients of Normal Old Age Allowance between 65 and 69 have long been required to meet a means test; however, attempts to introduce a broader means test as a trade-off for increasing the OAA have proven politically controversial. In 2008, when the OAA was HK$625 per month, Chief Executive Donald Tsang faced calls to raise the allowance to at least HK$1,000 per month, and proposed a means test in response. However, public opinion was strongly against such a means test, with some elderly recipients saying they would prefer the continuation of lower payments instead; they saw the payments as too small to constitute a living allowance in either case, and thought of them simply as a "token of appreciation" for their decades of contributions to Hong Kong society. Eventually, Tsang was forced to withdraw his proposal for a means test.
In July 2012, Chief Executive C. Y. Leung announced the new Old Age Living Allowance, which would provide monthly payments of HK$2,200, roughly double the existing OAA, to applicants who met a means test. By June 2013, three months after the OALA scheme had begun, there were more than 310,000 recipients, mostly former NOAA recipients between the ages of 65 and 69 who had been automatically converted to the new OALA scheme.
