Congress man Joseph NJ
Montoya (D.N.Mex. } today testified
before the Indian Affairs Subcom-
mittee of the House Interior and
Insular Affairs Committee in sup
port of his bill. H.R. 4834. This bill
would amend the Act of August 3,
1856 40 Stat. 1857, entitled "An
act relative to employment for
certain adult Indians on or near
Indian reservations. This bill would
repeal the So. 500, 600 annual
authorization to carry out the train
ing program and make the amount
of the annual appropriation subject
to the normal budgetary process.
81 believe that this legislation
would not only benefit many of our
Indians but would also be in the
interest of the Treasury Of the
United States itself, because many
of the Indians who have been un-
employable are finding employ
ment through the program.
The removal of the dollar
Limitation on the annual authori-
zation for the carrying on of adult
education and on-the-job training
would allow the Bureau of Indian
Affairs and the Bureau of the
Budget TO request an annual ap-
preparation in accordance with
actual needs.
"Under existing law, some 743
Indians have completed vocational
courses and on-the-job training,
but because presently available
funds are all committed, approx
mately 1000 Indians are unable to
begin training.
81 believe 1t is imperative that
this program be expanded in order
that more qualified American
Indians be given the opportunity to
receive the necessary training re-
quired for technical and suitable
jobs. l am confident that If given
the opportunity. the Am e rica an
Indian will continue to demonstrate
that he is willing and able to sup
port himself. He does not want to
depend on the Federal Government
for special services: I'll he wants

support his family at a decent
standard Of living.
''The economic independence of
the American Indian represents a
considerable les sening of the
Federal Government financial
responsibility, but more important.
is the fact that more Indians will
be self-Sustaining."

Acting Governor
Orders Crush PROG.
For ST. Thomus

Acting Governor, Cyril E. King
on May 18th, ordered a crash
emergency Housing Program to
ward off a possible court-ordered
eviction of several families.
The Acting Governor was alert
ed Friday afternoon that the own
er of a superficiary house, in
which several other families live,
was scheduled to be evicted the
following day due to her failure
to comply with a long standing
court order to vacate the land on
which her superficiary house is
located.
Welfare Department officials,
working with this problem for
some time and unable to solve it,
in desperation called upon Acting
Governor, Cyril E. King for help
to relocate these families.
After an emergency Conference
with officials of the Departments
of Social Welfare and Public
Works and a subsequent on-the-
spot inspection of the Long Bay,
Lindberg Bay, Staabiland, and
Nadir areas, Acting Governor,
Cyril E. King ordered a crash
emergency Housing Program
which includes:
l. Completion, in six weeks, OF
one 8-Aparemnt Prefabricated
buildin at Staabiland.
2. Erection of a second g.
Apartment Prefabricated building,
also at Staabiland, Immediately
after completion of the first.
8. Begin this week to clear
and survey land at Nadir.
4. Upon completion of t h e
above, construct 5 additional g.
apartment prefabricated build
ings.
5, After completion of these
five additional department build
ings, proceed with erection Of the
40 Prefabricated units originally
planned for the Nadir site.
The Acting Governor has been
assured that funds currently avail
able are sufficient to erect the two
department buildings at Staabi-
land as well as the Eve 8-apart-
ment buildings at the Nadir site.
Funds for the completion of the
40 Prefabricated buildings at Ma
dir are included in the 1862 Bud
get which is now pending before
the Legislature.
Acting Governor King empha-
sized that his action is in keeping
with Governor Paiewonsky's po-
Icy to give top priority to the task
Of relieving the current acute
housing situation.

New York - The Chase Man
haitian Bank on May II opened
its new ~sixty-story head Office
building-1 Chase Manhattan
Plaza-housing the largest bank
ing operation ever assembled I'M
der one roof.
David Rockefeller, president,
told a group of the banks direc-
tors, branch advisory board mem
bers and officers attending a
luncheon marking the occasion
that the modern glass-and-alumi-
mum ~skyscraper utilized new con-
.cepts of architecture to express a
contemporary image of banking"
Mr.. Rockefeller said that "for-
merly a bank Office would be
planned to impress the beholder
with the strength and security of
the institution. This was accom-
plished through the use of stone,
brick, and, normally, monumental
bronze doors"
With the enormous increase in
the use of banking services by in
dividuals, Mr.. Rockefeller said,
the appearance of bank buildings
is undergoing a marked change
'to make them more inviting and
friendly" He pointed out that !
Chase Manhattan Plaza with its
$500 windows made it possible for
people to look into the new bank
and see bankers at work, and by
the same token, bankers can look
out-as indeed they should in a
day when the business of the
bank is Intimately concerned with
the whole community"
Mr.. Rockefeller described the
completion of the skyscraper as
but one accomplishment in the
rehabilitation of New York's fnan-
cial district. Among the projects
planned for lower Manhattan,
under other sponsorship, are a
World Trade Center to be Situat-
ed on a 15-acre site along the East
River, two housing projects, and
the redevelopment of the area
now occupied by the Washington
Market.
The sixth tallest building in the
world at 813 feet and the largest
commercial structure built in
more than a quarter Of a century,
l Chase Manhattan Plaza took
more than four years to construct.
Chase Manhattan has leased 81
tower floors and six underground
levels to accommodate its head
office staff of 1900 persons. With
tenants occupying floors 81
through SO, (six tower floors are
filled with mechanical equipment)
the building will have a working
population of $4,000 when fully
occupied. The structure has a total

world of nature and of ami.
mails give glory to God be-
cause created by Him but not
in the sense of an act Of
alteration made by mankind.
lsAlAs, IN THIS passage
regarding the OK and the ass,
is speaking to the Israelites,
the Jews of his time, and he
is complaining because of
their infidelity to God. They
let themselves be misled by
stories of the pagan gods and
to adore idols. IsaiaS tells
them animals like the OK and
the ass know the man who
brings them their fodder and
hay in the stable; they recog-
niZe their master, but men are
so foolish that they do not
know their Creator and their
true God.
This was true in the time
of Isaias, and it was true also
at the time of the birth of
Christ. st. John in the first
chapter of his Gospel says
the same thing in different
words:
ut WAS THE TRUE light
that enlightens every man
who comes into the world. He
was in the world, and the
world was made through him,
and the world knew him not.
He came unto his own, and
his own received him not"
We still need the words of
Isaias and of St. John today,
for Christians, like the Jews
in the time of Isaias, let them
selves be misled by some sci
entists and philosophers, who
think now that they have dis
covered the laws of nature,
and are able to travel in space,
that thew are equal TO God
and that they are able to
reach heaven by their own
power.
Some people really get mis-
led by these ideas even
though all these laws of ma
ture made by God existed a
long time before they were
discovered by man. The dis
covery should have the oppo-
site effect and make man
realize the greatness of God,
Creator of all these complex
laws.
HOW is 1T THAT animals
are not so stupid, they know
the master who brings them
food in their trough, while
men do not recognize their
Creator? God has put himself
in the trough, the manger for
us at Bethlehem. He is our
nourishment and our Bread"
which will give us sustenance
into eternity.
Do we recognize God in the
manger? The words of Isaias
are a warning against in
credulity, inviting us to make
an act of faith. Perhaps il
would be a good idea to write
the words of Isaias above ou1
cribs. The presence of the OK
and the ass in the crib should
remind us to make the act Of
alteration which they cannot
make.

Great Hero!
By Rupert D. Chute

The great Hero was
just a Babe in the Beth
lehem manger yet a
great Hero! For man
would have no hope of
salvation without Him. no
door, no way, no truth, no
life everlasting. The apostle
Paul put it: "Who though he
was by nature God empti-
ed himself, taking the nature
of a slave and being made like
unto men,"
SO, HEAVENS VERY best
came to us as a man. God
with us" in the form Of man.
He did not have to offer to re-
deem man. He did not have
to come from the Ivory
Palaces" to be clothed in
flesh to save us. But He did
it! All the breaks" in the
situation are oUrsI YoUrsl
Don't overlook the meaning
of the Christmas Babe!
No wonder John the Bap-
fist declared, behold the
Lamb of Godl" Little wonder
that Paul said of Him that
His name was "above every
name that is named, not only
in this world, but also in that
which is to come" He has
borne our griefS and carried
our sorrows. He can solve
every problem of man. He can
take away every care. That
Babe was a Hero of heroes!
Oh, what He means or
should mean - to us!
AS Paul says in sweeping
assurance to the faithful who
accept Him as Messias: "Now
we know that for those who
love God all things work to
gether unto good, for those
who, according to his pur,
pose. are saints through his
call.
THUS ALL THINGS IN our
lives can be worked out for
our good! Who but the Son
of God could work that di-
vine alchemy on stony and
unworthy human hearts?
What happened in the old
year, or what will transpire
in the new, will be worked
for our good - and eternal
ly!
But there was a dear price
the Babe came to pay = on
an %ignominous and cruel
cross! He scared enough" to
give "the very best" - His
precious life! Only believe
Join the angels, wise men and
shepherds - and the innum

singing His praise. He came

Colonel, Wife Found Shot to Death
In Bed in Apparent Murder Suicide

The bodies of a retired Air
Force colonel and his wife, both
shot in the head, were found
yesterday in the bedroom of
their home at 1903 Northamp-
ton street NV.
District Coroner A. Magruder
Macdonald said he will issue
certificates Of murder and sui
eide in the deaths of Col. David
&c. G. Schlenker, Sc, and his
wife, Ethel, go.
Detectives said Col. Schlehker
apparently shot his wife as she
lay on her bed, then lay down
beside her and turned the As
caliber pistol on himself.
Mrs. Schlenker's bedridden,
90-year-old mother and an eld-
erly handyman were in the
house at the time, but heard
nothing. No notes were found.
Police speculated that the
colonel had been upset because
he enormously believed he had
cancer.
The bodies were found in the
second-floor bedroom by Por-
ter E. Plant, 43, an employe
Of the Philco Corp. where Col.
Schlenker had worked as an
electronics consultant since his
retirement from the Air Force
in 1858.
Detectives said the handy
man, Jacob Dunbar, Sc, told
them the colonel came down.

a while, and then went up

when he took coffee to Mrs.
Schlenker's mother, Mrs. Mary

fined to bed in another second
floor room.
