San Carlos, Arizona
One Of the finest or
ganizat ions on the San Car
los Indian Reservat ion is
the Educet ion Comi ttee,
cons listing of members from
both Bylas and San Carlos.
Although I am not a vot-
ing member, have been
asked to part ic ipate in
each meeting with them to
explain certain policies Of
the public schools and to
render assistance in any
way to the problems pre-
sent ed.
I wish to express my
thanks to Mr.. Marvin Null
and the many members, both
past and present, who have
served on this Commi ttee.
I feel that much good has
been acc ompl ished. For one
thing, it has given US an
opportunity to lit down and
go over pr oblems on q COM
mon ground SO that many
Misunderstanding have been
removed.
These past seven years
that I have been associated
with the Indian people, I
have seen progress and i'm
provement, but Ike every
thing else, there is room
for more impr ovement.
In this changing world
which we are all a part, it
is necessary for us to gain
more of an education or be
left behind. The Indian
student has rightful
place in our soc iety but he
must work hard and dill
gent ly to meet competition
1t is my hope that
through the continued ef-
forts Of the Educat ion Com
mittee, parents and stu
dents might more fully
rea lize the great opportun-
ity that is the irs, to bet
ter their lives thr ough ed
ucat ion.
Many thanks to oliver
Talgo and Che ster Buck, who
have worked hard to br ing
chi ldren into school who
have stayed out for vari ious
reas ons and their efforts
have been very worthwhile.
In closing, I would say,
take your educat ion pro-
blems to the Education Com
mi ittee who are working for
you and your children.

Dear Mr.. Null:
The purpose Of this let
ter is to expr ess in a
sma II way, the apr ciation
Of the staff and students
for the annual visits made
each year by you as cha ir-
man Of the Education Com
mittee and this year to
other members Of your COM
mittee; namely, oliver Tai
go, ella Sneezy and Lor-
retta Benal lily. am rather
late in getting this com
munication off to you but I
feel for your records, it
is deserving Of docume nta-
tion.
1t is no secret that ma
nv Of the children from
your reservat ion that come
to our school have not had
the benefit Of normal
home life. It is only ma
tural then that these young
men and women come to US
with many problems and frus
tratio ons which in some ca
ses seri ously interfere
with the ir lass work. Our
Job and we take It seri ous-
ly is to try to read just
these students to accept
life at a boarding school
which is somewhat different
than that expert fenced at
home with their parents or
relat ives.
We have found for the
past several years that you
in part icular and members
of your committee have a
very positive inf luence on
the children here at school
I am sure there is mutual
understand ing between your
comm ttee and our school as
to what the bject ives need
to be for these students
but many times your visits
and your sharing with the
children these same ideas
can have a very pos it i've
effect on the ir behavi our
that we cannot lways ac-
complish. I am sure that
if I would go back in the
records, I could pick out
special cases and get posi-
tive proof Of what I have
just said.
We hope that your Wis it's
to the school will cont nue.
and that we could feel free
to call you from time to
time for sistance and for
addit ional Wis it's to our
school. Just yesterday you
ca lied me on the teller phone
regarding home leave for a
boy and several times dur
ing the year we get calls
from you or members Of your
committee. This demon
strates that the parents on
the reservat ion are looking
to you for guidance and
he lp and we are only too
glad to provide any service
we can in this respect. We
a lso recognize that the ed
ucat ional offic ials from

give their full cooperat ion

children reach their bjec-
t ives.

Cha irman, Tribal Ed. Comm.
San Carlos Council
Dear Mr. +. Null:
This is in reply to your
letter Of February 2, 1862,
request ing my opini on Of
the visits Of the Sen Car
los Tri bal Educat il on Com
mittee to off f-reservat ION
boarding schools.
Since I have not been
int imately come cted with
these visits my comments
will have to be general. I
have had admin strat i've po-
sitions in 4 boarding
schools not in the Phoenix
Area and have had Wis it's
from numer GUS tribal groups
over a period Of rs years.
Dur ing that time have
seen such visits becom
more and more helpful to
both the admin st rat ion and
the students. Fewer and
fewer have been harmful
One Of the biggest pro-
blems Of any boarding
school student is homes ick-
ness. All Of them appreci-
ate enc ouraging letters
from home but also they
like visits Of people from
the ir servat on. AS you
know some Of them have no
real homes or are from bro
ken homes.
official tribal visits
carry much signif icance
they show the Tribe is in
teres ted in them. Children
who were thinking Of leav-
ing the school often are
persuaded to remain. Much
OF the homes ickness may be
cured.
In addition to helping
with the problem of home--
sickness, Education Com
ittees can encourage stu
dents to apply thems Ives
more diligently, to take
advantage Of the program
offerings, and to behave
themse Ives proper lyo After
every good visit Of a tri-
bal committee, teachers no.
tice an impr ovement in aca-
demic learning and dormi-
tory people have fewer dis
ciplinary problems. After
a bad Wis it, students are
more restless, there are
more run-aways, there is
more drinking and the aca-
demic work suffers.
If the Tribal Educat ion
Commit tee conducts itself
properly, Wis it's with home
sick students and others
encourage them to behave
and to work hard. Also.
the Conmi ttee has ONE ap-
prec lat ion Of the work Of
the school staff. The good
effects Of the visit are
seen for months. These
good results lmost always
take place when a Committee
plans it's visits, discusses
it's purpose, and spends
enough time on campus to
have group and individual
meetins.
Since many parents and
re latives cannot visit dis
tant boarding schools, Tri-
bal Comni ttees can and
should report to the reser-
vat ion folks. The Commit
tee then serves as an in
va lua bic link between home
and school; school and
home
I hope that all the Wis

Senator Barry Goldwater of
Arizona today hailed the apparent
Soviet backdom on mis- Sile bases
in the Caribbean but warned that
an American guarantee never to
invade Cuba would leave the Castro
regime inviolate and free to con-
tinue its subversive course
throughout Latin America.
At the same time, he urged
President Kennedy to take immed-
late steps to develop truly BIZ
partisan approach to cold war
problems and to rid himself of
appeaSement advisors.
Senator Goldwater, Chairman
of the Republican Senatorial Cam
paign Committee, said the United
States should be careful to avoid

that would have the effect "of
m aking Castro communism per-
manent fixture in the Western
Hemisphere"
cit should not be forgotten in
our relief that tensions have been
eased through Soviet promise to
dismantle Cuban missile bases,
that such action would merely
return us to the status quo that
existed before the Soviet bui ld-up
began" Senator ColdWater said.
"But if we give a firm pledge
never to invade Cuba in return
for such Soviet action, then the
Communist will have won an i'm
portant victory"
The Republican leader warned
further that any American pledge
not to invade Cuba would infuri ate
the people of Latin America who
have, in the present crisis, fully
demonstrated their desire to rid
the hemisphere of Castro Commun-
ism at the earliest possible time.
On the question of bipartisan
ship, Senator GoldWater stated:
"Now that President Kennedy
has proven the worth of firm
stand backed by Americ an
strength, we believe he should
include in his advisory staff mem
bers of the party which has long
urged such a course for the admin
iStration in Cuba. "

completion of construction Of the
project, for the production OF corn.

wheat
In other words, we can not
grow the crops which are in sur
plus. We will grow crops which
are designed for subsistence pur-
poses, and of course. hay to assist
in feeding our livestock. For them
too, only a subsistence level is
contemplated, but at least this will
make a powerful contribution to-
wards maintaining our way of life.
"Since 1858 we have been fl
nancing the operation and main
tenance of the existing irrigation
projects. This year, as | noted
above, we are assuming the actual
responsibility for operation and
maintenance. We believe that given
the chance we can deliver the water
efficiently and economically. But
the job is big one, and though
we may make some mistakes, we
are determined to be ready to
operate the Navajo Indian lrrig-
alton Project when construction is
completed.
While it has taken almost an
entire century, we feel that our
people finally are progressively
moving toward the achievement of
dignity and self reliance, both
economically and culturally, and
opportunities which we're promised
us when we were permitted to
return to our homeland in 1868. For
this we owe thanks to the Govern
ment of all of us - which includes
its Executive, Legislative and Jud-
icial Branches.

where, without our consent. We
did consent, to assure much
needed auxiliary supply to our
friends in New Mexico. But this was
in consideration, however, of our
own participation in New Mexico'S
quota of water in the Upper
Colorado River Basin sufficient
in amount TO irrigate approx
imately 10000 acres of land. The
project will be an all-Indi an project
on which more than 1 900 fam

that more than 3 900 other Navajo

Jones stated that the scars of

definitely designed not to increase
the agricultural surplus - a major
problem of our times. But Con-

most part. with no alternative
m ethod of earning a livelihood
unless it be tribal employment
on work projects or in manual
labor far from their homes in beet
fields and in other agricultural
areas owned and operated by nom
Indians. The long-deferred and
unfulfilled promise of the Treaty
of 1868 can at least be satisfied
in part, even at this late hour,
by the placement of the Navajo
families on this irrigation project,
even with the limitations imposed

DORIS FLEEsON

LOS ANGELES.-You could
almost hear Richard M.
Nixon's sigh of satisfaction
come through the television
screen as he shifted his
campaign emphasis from Cali.
j fornia to Cuba, to Russia
and to the rest Of the world.
For while politicians of
both parties in every State
were debating what effect
President John F. Kennedy's
quarantine would have on
November 6, it was apparent
that the Republican nominee
for Governor had made his
Sdecision.
That decision clearly was
that there are more votes for
him in presenting himself as
the man who knows how to
. handle world affairs than
there are in claiming to have
the answers to the problems
of this State. And If there
should be no additional votes
in the shift. it would be, at
least, a more enjoyable
campaign.
His half hour television
presentation Of his views of
the Cuban situation, coming
+. four days after the PreSi-
dents action, was the result
of careful planning and of
consultation with party lead
ers, from former President
Dwight D. Eisenhower down.
The partisanship was there
for all to see, but was frosted
over with pledges of support
for the President. When Mr..
Nixon praised Mr.. Kennedy
for taking the "only possible
course" he made the point
that II called for a quaran-
tine Of Cuba in 1860"
When he called on all citi-
AEens to support Mr.. Kennedy

to send armed forces into
