The culture ana language are diff
ferent from anything you've been
accustomed to. The language bar
rier is here and you must deal with
it. Educ alton is the key to anybody's
life. The u member Tribal Council
is working continuously and dill
gently to remind parents that child
rem must go TO school. Parents
must be made to under stand educa-
ton is the goal if children are to
survive in the world today and be
the leaders of tomorrow.
Nothing is wrong with the Nav
ajo's except the lack of education
We are so years behind. All we
have TO do is take the bull by the
horns and catch up. We are just
after a decent living. We've got to
have the know how and who can we
get it from? = YOU!
Being a teacher affords a
wonderful opportunity There will
be problems; nothing runs smooth.
Problems will arise because of our
traditions and culture. Acquaint
your selves with the parents. Nav
ajos are very fine people, when you
are acquainted, parents will accept
you.
II desire to have children in
school in front of their hoganS if
possible. Certainly not a thousand
miles away We don't like that.
However, it has to be this way at
this time; we have no choice now.
We are trying to do what the Navajo
People want but it isn't enough yet.
The child must be home with the
parents.
'Public School affords an edu-
cation for the parents as we'll as
for the child. | am in favor of a
Public School in each community.
Another basic problem today
is sanitation. All diseases come
from unsanitary conditions. Public
schools enable the child to take
home daily what he has learned
about cleanline SIS. We will lick the
problem of sanitation, SO go along
with US until we do. They have to
be taught to be clean. Educ alton is
the answer. Don't jump at anything
without thinking twice, the Navajo
Council say think 4 times, | will
leave it up to your discretion.
I'VE find Chinle booming. We
are very proud of it. Teachers,
make up your mind to become de-
voted persons, and you will &C
complish great things. A paved
road joining the backdoor highways
will make your stay more pleasant.
| hope you will appreciate working
with the Navajo People and will in
vite them to attend your P.T.A.'s
and work with them.

Bobby and his classmates
are among several hundred pub
lie school youngsters in the
county who meet after school
every two weeks to discuss the
worlds great literature under
the Junior Great Books pro-
gram.
The idea is to encourage
young people to read the books
which have enriched our world,
think and talk about them, and
listen to other opinions.
''They just love it," seems to
be the consensus of parents and
discussion leaders.
For the most part, the stu
dents feel 1t an honor to be
members of this junior semi
mar. AS one parent put 1t,
''ther's something of a scram-
BILE to get In.
'Getting in", however, is left
entirely up to the children. The
program leaders frown on ac-
cepting members simply be-
cause their parents want them
to participate. One leader said
these are the ones she tries to
discourage.
The program, underway for
the first time in several coun-
ty schools this past fall is un-
der the Great Books Foundation.

Bottle Clubs Must 60!

are, In effect, closing our eyes to their DELHI
crate evasion of the law We would then be
legitimatizing practice which is illegitimate
to begin with; and we would open the flood
gates to the establishment of bottle clubs all
over the county.
Incidentally, my mail has been running
heavily in favor of eliminating bottle clubs
and making the liquor law investigation I
proposed through my 10-member investigating
commission.
just can't help feeling that by permitting
these bottle clubs to continue, we are eroding
our laws and giving the public the impression
that if you evade law by easy stages, with
out an outright defiance, you can get away
with it. 1 don't think that is a healthy situa-
ton. This is what has happened in Prince
Georges County and the recent raids by the
sheriff on taverns there demonstrate rather
clearly, I think, the unfortunate results of
laxity in law enforcement
Here in Montgomery County, we should
be thankful to our law enforcement officials
and to our courts for their vigilance In keep
ing the county clean. Indeed this Is a bi.
partisan responsibility. since ii was f. Brooke
Lee, the cOunty's longtime Democratic leader,
who was responsible for instituting the county
dispensary system.
Right after prohibition was repealed, the
late Governor Albert c. Richie of Maryland
gave the various political leaders in the coun-
ties their choice of the kind of liquor law
they wanted. Mr. Lee chose the dispensary
system-and l believe it is the only one of it's
kind in the nationwide Lansdae C. Sasscer
in Prince Georges County selected the ndi
vidually owned tavern and liquor store system.
We can all see what has happened in the two
counties since that time.
During the last session of the Legislature,
Blair Lee put in bill to do something about
bottle clubs, but it was lost in the rush Of
the closing days of the session. Alger Barbee
put in bill to give liquor licenses to fraternal
and veterans clubs. That, too, was lost I
intend to do something about bottle clubs
early in this session, SO the problem can be

From This Angle
Religion In Politics

In these days when public relations ex.
perts spend so much time grinding out copy
to improve the public image of this or that
group or person, it has become fashionable to
avoid controversy in any FORM Many of our
various forms of communication go through
unbelievable conniptions to avoid criticism or
Sights, real or imagined to any large organ
lied group. Of all the groups that our COM
munication media stand in awe of, the organ
lied religions are the most sacrosanct.
There is nothing strange about this atti-
tude towards religion for it has long been an
American belief that a mans religion Is his
own business. This attitude has changed some
what in recent years. Some individuals have
limited or stated that the lack of membership
in church or of belief in religion makes
man less an American, or at least tends to
reflect on his integrity or morality No words
should be necessary to refute such bigotry.
When a religious group steps into the
political arena to influence public policy or to
obtain tax funds, it is no longer a matter of
religion but matter of politics. The expendi-
ture of public funds and the formation of
public policy are matters for public debate
and once religious groups step into such posi-
tons, they can no longer claim freedom from
public examination or criticism that their re-
igious philosophy enjoys.
To prevent religious political activity from
dividing our nation should be the concern
and aim of every American. To this end the
writer believes that the separation of church
and state remains our BEST and perhaps only,
hope.
Religion has been a concern in American
politics since the beginning of our nation In
the Declaration and Resolves of the First Con.
tinental Congress which was adopted in 1874
the following paragraph appears as protest
against one of the "acts of Parliament (which
are infringements and violations of the rights
of the colonists": also the act passed the

ishing the equitable system of English laws,
