Kahns' Fly To England

his district in Flagstaff in March
1868.
Mrs. Kahn, in spite of being
busy with five daughters and one
baby son has busy schedule for
she devotes much of her time
working with several Navajo wo-
mems organizations on the Navajo
Reservation where she is a well
come speaker. She was born at
Lukac hukai, Arizona where her
parents still reside.
The KahnS were selected to
represent the American Indian
Tribes of the Baha'i Faith at a
recent meeting of the Baha'i Great
Council Fire in Tuscon, Arizona
where they were speakers for the
American Indians.
Last June 1-3 they we're
speakers at a Different Races
Gathering of Prayer" held at
Pine Springs, Arizona. Over 1900
people we're in attendance at this
meeting, many of whom flew from
distant countries. At this meeting
several of the older Navajo people
and an old Medicine Man immedi-
ately recognized the Baha'i teach
ing as teachings they had been
given by their old grandfathers
as prophesies of things to come.
Since that time numerous meetings
have been held all over the Navajo
Reservation to pass on the news
about the Baha'i Faith.
The Pine Springs community
will host another large gathering
on May 25-26, 1868. There Chester
and Annie Kahn will share their
new knowledge and experiences
with their people in the community
house which Chester instigated
and helped build at Pine Springs.
When questioned as to why they
had become intere sted in a re-
ligious belief that originated in
far-off Persia Mr.. and Mrs. Kahn
said before their departure; "We
became intere sted in the Bahai
Faith when we found that it full
fills our sacred Navajo religious
teachings.

Flying to London, England in
chartered plane this week are Mr..
and Mrs. Che ster Kahn of Flagstaff
Arizona. This young Navajo couple
was chosen to represent the
American Indian BAHIA Members
of North America. They will
address a gathering of over 5000
people at the ''Most Great Jubilee"
of the Baha'i World Congress
which is in session from April
28 to May 2. The purpose of the
meeting is to commemorate the
100 years of the establishment
of the Baha'i World Faith in
Baghdad, Iraq. The theme of the
Congress is the "Oneness of man
kind and religion, and the univer-
salty of God. During the Kahns'
trip they expect to make many
new friends among the repre- esenta-
tives of the 256 countries expected
to be represented at the meeting.
Chester Kahn grew up at Pine
Springs and although he only had
a grade school education he has
learned how to make the most of
it by self-education. He served
in the important post of secretary
for the Pine Springs Community
Chapter and it was largely thr ough
his efforts and ability that the
Pine Springs Community house was
built. Hundreds of people have
viewed his excellent mural which
decorates the Gallup Indian Gen.
ter. He is also the illustrator of
a book by California author.
He uses his artistic talents to
create fabric designs, silver work
and pictures. Chester formerly
worked as coordinator and
teacher-aide at the Stewart In
dian School at Stewart, Nevada
where he met his wife, Mrs. Annie
Tsosie Kahn. Mrs. Kahn was doing
the same type of work in child
guidance as an inStructional aide.
After 6 years they moved to Flag
staff where Kahn is employed as
a painter for an outdoor adver-
tising company. He was elected

these areas there will be needed
additional teacher housing. Fa-
cilities in these areas are eSti-
mated at SLIPS, 600.
There are other areas within
the city and county that have not
been included in present projec-
tionS, such as Ramah, Ft. VIM
gate, Ambrosia Lake, Church
Rock, Sunnyside, Sky City and
the Indian Hills area. We intend
to keep a close watch on these
areas for shifts in school enroll
ment and will maintain fleMbil-
ity in the possible shifting of fa-
cilitieS to accommodate enroll
ments. Dure to the mass of work
and time involved in hiring ar
chitects, obtaining final plans
and specifications and awarding
contracts, it is not expected that
any new facilities will be occu-
pied until the 1964-65 schoolyear.
The temporary facilities now in
use will be available for special
facilities and special areas.
The foregoing projections indi-
cate a need for approximately
$1,000, 900. The board of educa-
tion has studied the ALLEGATION
for federal funds in connection
with the bond issue and it is ex-
pected that with proper applica-
tion we will receive between 81,
100000 and ST, 100000 in federal
funds.
The board of education has not
discussed and does not plan the
use of any bond monies for the
construction of any new admins
trative facilities or the construc-
tion of new stadium
If approved by the property
owners the bonds will be set on
an eight year amorti zation
schedule. Depending on when
the bonds are sold, the maximum
estimated increase in taxes would
probably occur November, 1864.
and would be, in the city, approx
mately $4. SO per 81 900 valuation
more than that paid in 1862. In the
county this figure would be
approximately $3.55.
If the bond issue fails to pass,
some schools will be forced to
stack students or 60 on halliday

Crownpoint Supports
School Bonds Issue


in the Gallup Independent, has
called for a bond election to OBJ
tain funds for construction of ur-
gently needed school facilities. At
the present time there are in use %
temporary classrooms with an ad-
ditional IA on order for use in the
1o63-64 school year.
1t is planned that a complete
elementary school be construc-
ted on the site of the old Miner's S
ball park to replace the made
quate facilities at Washington
school. Presently there are 314
pupils at Washington in facility
that was originally intended to
house 24O pupils. 1t is projected
that by 1964-65 there will be BIS
or more students in Washington
school. This school is estimated
to cost $5OO,OOO.OO for construc-
tion and equipment.
Additional facilities will be
needed by the 1964-65 chool
year at Jefferson, Linco oln, Will
son, Roosevelt and Aileen Roat
schools the board said. These
schools are presently up to or
near capacity. Projected enroll
ment for 1964-65 will put them
up to capacity and in some in
stances over capacity By 1864
IS projected enrolment will put
them over capacity. Present esti-
mates for additional facilities
and equipment at these schools
comes to $45O,OOO. In addition
at the present rate of expansion,
by the 1964-65 school year the
capacity of Gallup junior high
and Gallup senior high school
will be exceeded the board add
ed. No estimate for additi onal
facilities at these two sites is
presently being made.
The board members said:
At the present time the school
at Navajo. New Mexico is COM
posed of seven temporary build
ings with two more temporary
buildings to be added for the
1963-64 school year. Projected
enrolment by 1964-o5 is ESQ to
300 students. A complete elemen-
tary school is a necessity at Ma
vajo and this is estimated to cost
$5OO,OOO for construction and
equipment.
Additional facilities are need
ed at Zuni high and Zuni elemen-
tary schools. In the coming
Sc hool year seven temporary
classrooms will be in use there.
The high school with a capacity
of 21O students presently has
347 students with an anticipated
500 by 1964-65. Zuni elementary
which presently has 631 students
anticipates $50 by next year and
700 by 1964-65. In addition to
classroOms, additionalteacher
housing will be needed. 1t is es-
timated that these facilities will
appr oximate $5OO.OOO.
At Thoreau, Crownpoint, To-
hatchi and Use Bonito there are
presently nine temporary class
rooms in use with seven more
being added for the 1868 Cd
school year. Without extending
any bus routes an increase of PSI
students is projected for these
schools in the coming year with
an actual projection for 1964-65
of another 1856 students. If bus
routes are extended, many more
students will be enrolled. Tenn
porary classrooms are to be re-
placed with permanent structur-
es. In addition to classrooms in

expected in connection with tn

The Crownpoint resolutio
reads as follows:
Resolution of The Crownpoir
Subagency Council:
justification for Support {
Mckinley County School Bon
Election.
Where as:
/. The Crompoint Subagency
Council representing Sc
veral thous sand Navajo
Indians in this area re-
cognize that good school
facilities are of primary
mportanCe to the edu-
cation of our children, and
2. The Council recognizes that
the population rate is
increasing and that addition
al school facilities will be
difficult to obtain unless
additional funds are raised
3. The Council recognizes that
hundreds Of indian and non-
Indian children of high
school age must now be
boarded in schools away
from home or must be
transported by bus because
of the lack of sec condary
facilities in the east end
of Mckinley County, and
4. The Council recognizes that
public school funds must be
raised by some method and
that major source of re-
venue can be divided
through the passing of a
school bond election, and
5. The Council understands that
the Gallup-Mc Kinley County
School Board recognizing
the need for additional funds
recently adopted a resolu-
tion to bring a school bond
issue before the voters of
Mckinley County.
Now therefore be it resolved
that:
/. The Crownpoint Subagency
Council extends its grateful
appreciation for the position
the Gallup Mckinley School
Board has taken in bringing
the matter of a school bond
before the voters of Nc
Kinley County, and
2. The Subagency County
heartily endorses the pass
ing of a chool bond
election and are therefore
asking every Navajo to sup
port the election, and
3. The Council reque SITS all eli
gible voters to vote in favor
of the school bond election,
and
4. The Council is certain that
if the school bond passes,
the Gallup-McKinley Coun-
Gil School will give active
consideration to the needs
of the ownpoint Subagency
including the building of Sc
condary facilities inthe
area.
