Reservation Motel
Plans Held Tagging

Paul Jones, chairman of the
Navajo Tribal Council, told the
council, in session at Window Rock
that he is disturbed because the
tribal program of motel construc-
tion throughout the reservation is
begged down.
The NavajOs have placed con-
siderable emphasis on attracting
tourist trade to the reservations S
beauty spots, especially with con-
struction of highways across the
tract.
Jones said he had been advised
by the Bureau of Indian Affairs
that the master highway cOnstruc-
tiOn program will be finished with
ia a year and a half. He quoted
Secretary of State Stewart Udall
as saying this present road plan
is "only the beginning
Jones told the councilmen that
sunless we act quickly (On motel
accommodation construction; visit
Ors to the reservation on our new
highways will be without proper
accommodations
He said that if this situation ex-
listed, tourists would be forced to
rush across the reservation to find
food and lodging off the reserva-
ton by nightfall. In addition to
what he termed ill-will, he felt
this situation would mean the loss

business.

M0tels and restaurants at Window

And Bloom urged that the road

planned and that efforts to obtain
funds for the construction of the

continue.

On welfare, LandblOOm said
there is a need to restudy needs
and make such adaptiOns as are
necessary to cope with this "many-
sided problem. He also urged an
attack on problems involving ne
glect or abandonment of children,
juvenile delinquency, alcoholism
and the like.
Despite the need for reservation
development LandblOom pointed
out, it would be we'll TO realize
the Importance of the relocation
program for those Navajo people
who possess the education and
skills necessary to compete in the
outside world and who want to
leave the reservation area.
''It is doubtful he continued,
'that we can ever develop the
reservation area to the extent that
it will offer standard living to
all Navajos for all time. We can
make it capable of supporting
more people than it can support
at present, but the population is
growing at the rate of at least
1900 per year, and some must
look elsewhere for living
LandbloOm also went into hand
ling of tribal funds. He said, Il
have not said anything about trib-
al self-help programs, financed
from tribal funds. There. remains
the question of what you Should do
for yourselves with your own re-
sources.
IF employment opportunities on
the reservation can be improved
the need for direct welfare should
decrease and you should not need
to invest as much money as you
now. do in public works welfare
programs.
81 hope that you might be able
then to develop carefully worked
out financial program to control
the use Of tribal funds. l would
hope that such plan would pro-
vide for keeping the cost of Oper-
ating the tribal government and
essential tribal programs well
within the annual revenue of the
tribe"
He said the money now in the
treasury is capital rather than rev.
enue. He urged investment, per-
haps in the U S treasury, at least
enough that the interest would sup
port tribal government and essen
tial programs.
LandbloOm also recommended
consideration of use Of tribal
funds for financing and operation
Of a necessary reservation revolv-
ing credit program, either under
federal Or other type of regula-
ton.

Shirley, Pentogon Jobs
Clear Subcommittee

A major step toward the
solution of the Shirley highway
bottleneck in Northern Virginia
was taken today by a House
subcommittee on roads.
The subcommittee, headed by
Representative Fallon, Demo-
crat of Maryland, approved and
sent to the full Committee on
Public Works a bill which
authorizes the widening of the
highway from four to eight
lanes.
1t also calls for a $2.5 million
construction program to i'm
prove the network of roads
around the Pentagon.
Under terms of the bill,
Shirley will be widened as an
interstate highway with the
Federal Government providing
95 per cent of the cost. The
State of Virginia will bear the
additional 5 per cent.
Estimate Of Cost
In testimony last week by
Rex Whitton, Federal Highway
Administrator, the cost of wild
ening was estimated at between
$l3 million and $40 million.
Engineering studies on the road
have not been completed.
The additional lanes will be
added to the existing highway
over a strip extending from the

Dodd Seeks
Action on
Chunceries

Senator Dodd, Democrat Of
Connecticut, called today fol-
a solution to Washington'S
"chancery explosion"
Citing a report in The SUM-
day Star of August Is on the
problem of residential areas
into which chanceries move
the Senator said a first STEP
toward a solution is general
awarenesS of the situation. He
asked and received unanimous
consent to place The Star story
in the Congressional Record.
ChancerieS, the offices of
ambassadors and their staffs,
have this effect, the Senator
said:
Suddenly, a quiet residential
street becomes in effect a COM
mercial zone with curbs marked
for the exclusive use of the
chancery personnel, double
parking in the streets and all
the other accomplishments of a
commercial enclave set in the
middle of a quiet residential
area"
The Senator said Washing
ton residents must accept some
inconvenience because of the
city's position as Capital of the
Nation and the Free World
However" he continued, II be-
lieve this chancery explosion
can be handled in a way thai
will respect the rights of Wash
ington citizens.
In the House of Representa-
tives, The Star report has
prompted r representative e
Kearns, Republican of Pennsyl-
vania, to introduce a proposal
to treat chanceries in the man
ner of other business-type
buildings.
