Mr.. Wright, a Danish economist,
said the mill began operations two

duces 10000 ton Of steel beams
annually and employs 120 work
men, whose only previous work
had been cutting sugar cane.
Mr.. Wright said that since steel

The session just completed was
attended, by fourteen officials
from Ethiopia, Ghana, Liberia,
Tunisia, the United Arab Repub-
lie, the British protecto-soon-to-

land and Somalia.
Besides the Puerto Rican steel
mill, the officials visited q ia
maican poultry farm and learned
how to take advantage Of prevail
ing conditions. They saw how feed
was imported from the United
States in the holds Of bauxite
ships wanting for cargo and how
the chickens were shipped to
United States markets in transport
planes that otherwise have re-
turned empty from oil fields in
Latin America.
These economists permitted the
farm to compete successfully with
United States poultry raisers. But
the producer pointed out to his
visitors that, with the rapidly de-
veloping Jamaican economy, he
hoped soon to be able to dispose
Of his chickens at home.

The Tribal Clothing Program
was established by the Navajo Tri-
bal Council in 1854. Since that
time, the Tribal Council has ap-
propriated funds each year for the
purpose of providing clothing to
Navajo school children. The
amount available in the 1880
school year was $65O,OOO and this
amount provided clothing for 49,
600 Navajo school children. This
year, $75O,OOO has been budgeted
for this program.
The purpose of the Clothing pro-
gram is to provide a minimum
clothing supply for each boy or
girl of school age in all cases in
which the family cannot afford to
buy the necessary clothing.
Through this program, the Navajo
Tribal Council assures every child
of an opportunity to attend school.
The Tribal Clothing Program is

Number one, of course is willing students coming from
interested parents who say they want their children

young and who expect their children to farther

Next any school system demands the best possible teach
that finances and support and
age They be qualified industrious and respectful Of
the children and the parents with whom they work Lastly
the school facilities themselves represent the final basic
element.
During the postwar there has been great trans
formation of these elements.

Voters Learn
E1.lectioneering

During the months of Septem-
Der and October NavaJos listen
ing all over Navajoland and areas
beyond received, by radio broad
casts in the Navajo language,
some very helpful information on
the importance of voting and ell
ecti0nS. The Tribal Chairman,
Mr.. Pa1l Jones, knowing the val
lie and Importance of the duties
of all citizens and finding it prop
er at this election time urged that
such programs be made available
at all radio stations to which Ma
vajos ordinarily listen for Indian
brOadcaSts.
To do these programs, arrange
ments were made whereby the
Navajo Tribe, the Gallup Indian
Community Center, the Station =
KGAK of Gallup, New Mexico. the
Station KWYK of Harrington,
New Mexico, and the Station &c
LIS of Flagstaff, Arizona all CO.
operated to bring these highly
important announcements and in
formation to the Navajo people
as public service project.
The Gallup Indian Community
Center, through the fine work Of
Don Weaver, prepared most of the
materials that were used in max
ing the boradcasts. The Navajo
Tribe in coordinating the project
furnished additional materials,
script copies, recording tapes, and
the services of Carl Beyal. the
Official Tribal Interpreter, who
did the actual brOadcasts The
Station KGAK furnished the equip
ment and did the reproducing of
recorded tapes as we'll as broad
casting the originals. The record
ed tapes were furnished the Sta
ton KWYK and the Station &c
LIS, who through their facilities,
made the broadcasts that were
beamed at the large Navajo lis
tening audiences.
To cover the vast NavajOland
and regions beyond, the Flagstaff
Station KCLS covered the western
portion, the Pennington Station
KWYK took care of the northern
portion, and the Gallup Station
KGAK handled the central and
southeastern areas.
First were a series of spot an
nouncementS stressing the proceed
ures for registration. as well as
some background information
about voting. After the registra-
tons were closed, the voting pro-
cedures and some background in
formation covering types of ell
ections, citizenship, government,
free elections, functions of state,
basic liberties, etc.
These current programs will be
continued up to election time as
great interest has been shown on
the part of the Navajo listeners.
It is also hoped that other edu-
cational features on other vital
