The Scouting Program has received
increased support from Tribal officials
since its Introduction many years ago.
The Tribe now supports a full time pro
fessional Scouter for the Reservation
scouting program. Recently the Tribe
gathered the entire reservation under
one district, making it easier to admin
lister the program fro m tribal head
quarters. Although the Tribe h S d
dopted a generous policy in releasing
employees assisting with the Scouting
program, most of the Tribal employees
gladly volunteer of their own time to
see Scouting come to Navajo boys on
the Reservation.

many ways to encourage Scouting Ia

For a long time we have requested
that a new school be built for our COM
munity This was started in 1917. In
1857, 80 years later a new school was
built which houses 300 students. The
new school is appreciated by the people
and are more thankful because children
too young to attend school far away
from home now have facilities right at
home We hope that in the future our
school can be expanded to take in child
ron up to the 9th grade.
Our people have also requested that
Adult Education unit be located IN cur
community. Some of our people have
expressed to learn some English, learn
to write their names and benefits which
they might derive from the program
educationally.

built by the Navajo Tribe is III use

tivities, such as, parties, dances, meet

maintenance of the building. MIR. Al

has the concession rights. For the con-

And it is not enough to sit
around and condemn the segre-
gationist to the depths of hell.
There are those who insist that
man cannot believe in segre-
cation and be a Christian. / am
not prepared to argue the point
except to say that l am too much
part of the sin of the world
arbitrarily to rule a man out of
the Kingdom for any reason. l
am convinced that this man is
wrong and ! believe that in this
area someone else must be for
him the church. But l cannot
forget that tomorrow he may be
for me the church. For tomor-
row the White Council president
or even the Khan leader may be
for me the church, pulling me
back into the fellowship of
Christ, bringing me back into
the community of the redeemed.
But a more serious point is
that he is even now playing
what seems to me to be a sig
nificant role. For he is con-
Stantly forcing us to defend
what we consider the Christian
position against what he con-
siders the Christian position. It
is troubling that we who con-
slider ourselves the children of
light in regard to race in the
South are being much better
humanist than we are Christian.
Examine our resolutions, our
statements, our actions. They
speak most often of law and
order, of human dignity, Of
mans rights, Of democracy, of
constitution and at best of the
principle of the brotherhood Of
man and the Fatherhood of God.
And we are finding that more
and more this is our most vul-
nerable point. And believe we
have left the door open for the
attack Of the segregationist
Christian. This is not to quar-
rel with the humanist for he
has played his role more than
well. But for the Christian
Church to assume this same role
is to bet on the wrong horse.
The Petal paper. [volume] (Petal, Miss.) 1953-19??, 1960-10-20


suggested, the Christian view of
race does not rest on the prin-
ciple that all Of us are brothers
and ought to act like it. The
Christian view on race is not
the universal principle of the
Fatherhood of God and the
brotherhood of man, as impor-
tant as that is. If the segrega-
zionist is told that the gospel
is to obey the law, accept the
Supreme Court, or open his
lunch counters, he can see no
gospel, no "good news" here. It
must be elsewhere and he sets
about to find it for this is only
bad news.
But if he is told, as he must
be told, that the Christian gos-
pei was and is message of re-
demption; that it was and is
God was in Christ, reconciling
the world to Himself !. God was
in Christ reconciIing us to one
another and thus to Himself +.
God was in Christ breaking
down the walls of hostility that
separate man from man and
thus man from God-God was
in Christ, loving man, accepting
him, forgiving him-even if he
cannot love and accept his
brother yet-tell him this and
if he hears it, believes it. and
accepts it, he is lot closer to
an integrated church in an in
tegrated society than if he is
told that he fought" to be a
good boy and obey the courts.
Some say there is no such
thing as a Christian race rela-
tions - that we must take our
cue from the social scientist. In
deed there is! And it might be
that the raciSt will force us to
see it anew. But it has to do
with grace, not law, not order.
And by this grace we are no
longer Greek, African, Asian
but we are, in the words of the
Pentecost story, "all together. in
