Civilization is slowly but surely
creeping up on our last remaining
tribes of aboriginees. Slowly they
are being forced to adopt the cul-
ture of the white man. In a sin
lister manner education is forcing
itself upon the Quechan tribe Of
the Yuma reservation.
Education and politics. Could a
more dire fate be wished upon an
innocent people who have, for gen
erations, lived life free from the
chicanery and subterfuges coinci-
dent with modern enlightenment?
The white man has decreed that
hereafter the Indians of the re
servation shall conform to white
man policies and that the young
Red Skins shall absorb knowledge
and culture in district schools.
Organize P.-T.A.
The Little Red Schoolhouse"
which was the bulWark of the early
American pioneer has at last made
its appearance on the reservation
with all the ills and faults incident
to district school board elections.
trustee fights, tactional differences
and P.-T.A. recommendations For
be it known the Indians have also
organized a tribal branch of the
P.-T.A. organization.
When the state recently took over
the complicated job of bringing en-
and education to the
Red Skin youngster it was assumed
that the way would be easy and
that a new field of cultural endeav-
or had been opened up. Not SO, not
SO.
Immediately Johnny Red Skin
and his parents started the well
known white mans practice of
jockeying for position. This group
didn't like the location of the new
school house. That group didn't
approve OF the school district
boundaries. One faction objected
to the proposed teaching staff, an
other wanted the entire plan dis
carded and the government schools
continued.
Each and every Red Skin individ-
ual seemed to be obSesSed with some
particular and different pet aver
sion. And then to cap the climax
it was discovered that only few
of the adult Indians had taken the
trouble to place their names on the
voters register and thereby assure
themselves of a vote come June 5
and trustee election.

PEELED to appoint temporary board
of trustees for the purpose of sign
ing the necessary election call.
With only ID registered Indian
voters within tne new reservation
district it was discovered that
small clique of "antiS" held the
balance of voting power. Secret
meetings and caucuseS were held,
even as they have been held among
the whites from time immemorial. A
carefully chosen STATE of six anti
candidates was selected and the
rank and file of the tribe discover
ed that they could have no voice
in the matter and would be power
less TO register their desires or OBJ
jections when the noble ID march
to the polls and victory on June 5.
Action Discussed
Court action was discussed, but
the First American is still ward
Of the government and as such has
no civil status. The courts are
not available to him. Thus the an
cient and honorable scheme of
school district politics was born
full fledged and mature even be
fore the primitive Red Man cast
his first school trustee ballot.
Presidential primaries and cleo
tions national issues and even old
age pensions fade into insignifi-
canoe while school district politics
flare and rage as an all consuming
force where formerly peaceful tribal
ceremonies and practices held sway.
Repeated visits from Superin-
tendent Collins and even a personal
visit of State Superintendent of Ed
ucation, Verling Kersey, have failed
to produce the desired harmony.
The peace pipe is deeply buried and
intra tribal war threatens. From
all indications the new Indian
school district gives promise of be-
ing a thorough success-according
to White Man standards.
