The Navajo Tribal CouAcil, ou
the recommendation of the Budget
Committee decided to appropriate
a certain amount earlier in the year
as that work can start Immediately
on prepar ations for the 1861 Fair.
This money will help and be spent
for the various prizes and mater
ials that will be used during the
Fair. The sooner and the earlier
they are purchased the better the
plans can be formulated. Good
planning is always done early, and
this money will help the Directors
of the Navajo Fair plan well.
AS the Resolution stated, "Ex-
perience has proven in previous
years, that regular appropriations
made to defray the expenses of the
Tribal Fair received by the Fair
Commission during the month OF

progress in the future unless we
understand the principles and ac-
tions which contributed to the past.
Without clear comprehension of
the direction from which we have
come, we cannot possibly chart the
direction in which we should go.
Now in considering the direc-
tion of the world over the recorded
history of mans existence, we find
very curious phenomenal phe-
nomena whic h believe must be
thoroughly understood as we move
into the crucial stages of the glo-
bal struggle between the forces of
freedom and the forces of slavery.
And that phenomena is confined in
space to the la mass of North
A m eric and in time to the 1874
years the United States has been in
existence.
This phenomena is one of abun-
dance in the midst of want: of ac-
complishment in an era of stagna-
tlon: OF hope in a world of despair.
1t is story of the proper utiliza-
non of human energy, of the spir-
itual and material fruits of a way
of life which has stood the test of
time.
Yes, this is the American story
which today is the hope offreedom.
1t contains the only elements of
strength which--if they are guarded
well--can meet the ultimate test of
Communist totalitarianism. 1t is
not new story but 1t needs re-em-
phasis in the light of today's crucial
events. We needto see it in the pro-
per context. in the proper depth and
against the backdrop of how it diff
fered from what men had done be-
fore.
Perhaps the late author, Henry
Grady Weaver. said it best in his
book, "The handspring of Human
Progress" At this important per-
iod In your lives would ask you to
consider his words carefully. Let
me quote:
For sixty known centuries,
this planet that we call Earth has
been Inhabited by human beings not
much different from ourselves.
Their desire to live has been just
as strong as ours. They have had at

Unquote.
Think of that. Suddenly in one
spot of this planet light appeared
to shine bright in the recorded his
tory of mans progress. Why was
this7 Why was it that after six
thousand years of want, famine was
banished in America2 Why was it
that in the short space of 1874 years,
one particular group of people was
able to do what had never been ac-
compli ished before2 Why were these
people. living on only one speck of
the globe with only small fraction
of the worlds population. able to
out-produce all others combined7
The answer lies in the thinking
and acting of this nation's earliest
students, the men who drew up a
form of goVernm ent the like of
which the world had never seen be-
fore. 1t lie in actions b S ed on
careful perusal of the lessons of
history, lessons which proved that
from time eimmemorial the concen-
tration of power in the hands of the
few had failed miserably to insure
freedom or give people the fruits
of their labor. 1t lies in a recog-
milton of the fact that the failures
of the past had squandered the most
precious of all commodities--hu-
man energy--in suppressing the
most precious of all rights--hu-
man liberty. They were to be avoi-
ded.
Therefore, the m n who drew
the governmental blu ep rint for
America started with the assump-
tion that men are endowed by God
with certain rights and privileges
and that governments only proper
role should be in the protection of
those rights. They rejected entire
ly the theory that mans rights stem
from authority, from the State, and
proceeded to build in our Consti-
tuition something new and different
in the way of governmental char
rers. This novelty was In provi-
sions which specifically stated that
certain institutions and human
relations were to be left OUTSIDE
the authority of government. They
actually forbade the government to
infringe or violate these areas.
Strangely enough, not so many

the nation, on Main Street and in

nature. with all of its imperfection.
is the same today as it was 5000
years ago. Therefore, what man did
in history in response to certain
conditions, circumstances and
philosophers, he will do again TODAY.
If it were possible to pass a law
which could remove the greed, hat
red, envy and other mfavorable
characteri sites of mans nature.
we could ca silly fit the individual to
whatever conditions that arise. We
could make man forever noble and
gear him to perform always at an
honorable peak of efficiency and
endeavor. We could make things so
perfect that there would be no need
for laws or government.
But this is patiently impo ssible
so we must reckon with the nature
of man as it is, realizing that some
men have an Unsuitable desire for
power and must be restrained. This
is what our Constitution is aimed at
--the prevention of conc entrations
of power into the hands of few who
might abuse it. This is the concep
of limited government upon which
our individual freedom depends.
And, it is just as valid and just as
workable today as it was two hun
dred years ago when it wasframed
by men who had studied and learned
from the past--men who had taken
the les ons of history and used
them profitably as an applied SCI
ence--men who recognized the
eternal reality of rights bestowed
at birth On all men.
So. if there is one central
thought that would leave you or
this important day in your lives,
it is the thought that history con-
tains answers to the present and
the future--not only for you as in
dividuals, but for this nation, this
world and all mankind. If you study
it well and continue to study 1t right
on through life, you will understand
the motivating forces of human
progress. You will avoid other
mems mistakes in arriving a
brighter future. And you will be
worthier sons of freedom than
some of us who have gone before
you and--through complacency and
inattention to the lessons written in
the sands of time--have allowed
process of erosion to begin in the
structure of our greatness.
Now before Iclose want to con-
graduate you one and all on the sue

many nations, speaking many Ian
guages, holding to various trad1-
tions. But they met in this contt-
nent with common goal--freedom.
And out of the confusion of tongues,
the conflict of traditions, the vast
differences of tastes and talents,
they evolved a spiritua al union
grounded in liberty that was to be-
come the first model, later the ex-
ample and now the hope of the en-
tire world.
And this is what we fight FOR
and WITH today in the great crisis
of freedo which has split the
world into armed ideologic al
camps, threatening our national
survival and devolving on you and
young people just like you the job
of holding high the torch of free
dom in a new and perilous era.
Iwould remind you of this today
as you prepare to 60 forth to new
fields of endeavoro You will hear an
increa Sing amount of talk about
change--about how we IS govern
ment and we as people, must
change. And Twill not argue against
change. l think changeis necessary
and that we should constantly work
for changes S in our methods a nd
proc edures that will improve
things, that will better our lives,
that will make more secure the
blessings of freedom in this coun-
try. And, l would sugge st to you
graduates that you do not improve
or change things for the better by
discarding basic and proven doc
trineS.
For example, there have been
great changes in this Univer sity
over the years--changes directed
at providing you with better facil-
tiles, better instruction, better
surroundings. But, there has been
no change in the tradition of schol-
arship and truth upon which this
University was established. That
is enduring because it has been
tried and found good, because it is
basic to the purpose of education
and citizenship.
So. l would urge you to workfor
change as you go out in the world.
Work for the right kind of change
the kind that will be positive and
helpful in charting the right course
for your lives and the nations life
but don't tamper with the natural
laws and the fundamentals that have
been tested and proven. There are
too many voices in America today
suggesting that we change our his
toric conce offreedom by turning
over more and more power to the
federal government. There is also
a preoccupation with subj bject
called national goals" which l
find disconcerting because it pre-
supposes that we don't have a ma
tional goal sufficient to the realities
Of today. This, however, is not true.
We have a national goal and have
had national goal which is the fin
est ever devised. 1t is contained in
the words of Thomas Jefferson in
our Decla ration of independence
VIII en- he wrote: eve hold these
truths to be self evident: that all
men are Great ID equal: that they
are endowed by their Creator with
certain inalienable rights: tn al
among these are life, liberty and
the pursuit of happiness"
Now / submit that there CAN be
no other national goal than the one
contained in the Declaration of In
dependence, because if we change
that, we must hange our entire
concept of freedom as coming from
God and we must alter our entire
course of Government to conform.
Navajo times., 1961-06-07

among these are Life, liberty and
the pursuit of happiness.
Now submit that there CAN be
no other national goal than the one
contained in the Declaration of In
dependence, becaus if we change
that, we must hange our entire
concept of freedom as coming from
God and we must alter our entire
course of Government to conform.
To me this emphasis on seeking
after new national goals is synp-
tom of the disea Sc that ails freedom
today. 1t is result of mans con-
slant and determined seeking after
material things to the exclusion of
spiritual values. | suggest that we
have become SO preoccupiedfo for the
last thirty years with the siren call
of material goods that cosmetics
and TV sets have become more i'm
portant to many people than free
dom of speech.
Those who cry the loudest for
basic ch ang ges--changes in our
economic system, in our Constitu-
t1on in our traditions--do not un-
derstand the crisis of our time or
the anatomy of all ri IS e S down
through history. They do not want
to admit that man with hi IS unchang-
ing nature is the cause of crisis.

FBI Chief Cites Violence

~ Home Increase Since 1850
Violence and threats of more
violence the world over should not
blind US to the gravity Of our own,
purely domestic violence problem.
FBI Director J. Edgar Hoover
reports that serious crime reached
a new aIl-time high last year, with
an astounding 90 per cent In
crease over 1850. The population
increase was only Is per cent dur
ing the decade.
Throughout 1860 there was a
murder every So minutes, a forci-
BILE rape every "a minutes and an
aggravated assault every 4 min
utes. Crimes against property,
too, occurred much more frequent
Y.
The juvenile crime problem
continues to get worse. Arrests of
Juveniles have more than doubled
since 1850. while the population of
youths aged 10 to IT increased by
less than one half.
Even as we must be ready to
protect ourselves from enemies
abroad, we must do a much more
effective job Of dealing with Soc
iety's enemies at home.
