Big Development
For Tube City

The Chairman of the Navajo
Tribal Council, Raymond Nakai,
said today: "The IA member Coun-
Gil of the Navajo Tribal Council
has passed the resolution to ex-
pand Ell Gran Motors Corporation,
and ARA. This is million dollar
expansion of shopping facilities,
and motel and tourist facilities.
The Chairman said, II am sure
you are aware of the fact, each and
every one of you, that is, at this
very moment the terrible burden
of having nothing to do is hanging
over the heads of our Navajo peo-
pie. 1t should not be made more
difficult by administrative delays
or maneuvers which would place
unnecessary obstacles in the path
of growth" He also states, "We
realize all great changes are irk-
some to humans, especially those
which are attended with uncertain
affects. But, bear in mind our
people deserve the right to work.
We can do that very thing for
them. We are trying to help our
people in that sphere of thinking.
Such goods are an apt means to
secure for a father of a family,
the healthy liberty he needs in
order to fulfill the duties assigned
to him as the head of the family,
his duties regarding the physical,
spiritual, and religious welfare of
the family"

MY FELLOW CITIZENS:

Today, every four years, the Navajo people,
their friends, we'll wshers and the seekers of their
favor, assemble for the installation of Council
and Chairman--a Legislature and executive--in
the undimmed hope that newly installed officers will
lead Americas largest Indian Tribe toward the vary
ing goals of their hearts.
The goal toward which propose to lead the Nava-
10 people is the goal of all true Americans, is to
time when the free development of each individual is
the condition for the free development of gov
eminent which respects the equal dignity of every hui
man being as child of the same Heavenly Father
government in which all citizens have the rights
before the law, but than that rights which the
law cannot take away and responsibilities, too, in
Navajo times. [volume] (Window Rock, Ariz.) 1960-1984, 1963-09-05

ment of the Navajo individual--the
forgotten man in the grandiose in
flow from Window Rock which al
ways seem to stop short of his
door;
LET ME BE SPECIFIC: The
permanent tribal scholar shiptrust
fund must be increased and its pur-
pose broadened. 1t would do little
good TO make more money avail
able for college scholar ships when
our young people are inadequately
prepared to take advantage of what
is now available. We must have
college prepara tory school--a Ma
vajo Academy--to take the most
promising of our boys and girls at
the age of ten or twelve, and fit
them by college age to meet the
admission requirements of any
university in this country, of the
Service Academies, yes, even of
foreign institutions of learning.
1--WE need the Navajo Academy
also to reduce to writing, pre-
serve, and expand our own history
and literature in the Navajo lang
uage, and to keep us proud of our
own Navajo cultural heritage, as
we grow too sophisticated for the
medicine man and local historian.
"At the same time, we must
not neglect the boys and girls whose
talents lie in other directions. We
need trade schools, right here on
the Reservation. solid trade
schools whose graduates can get
good jobs in an economy demand
ing ever higher skills.
Cheap labor is no incentive for
industry to come to this Reserva-
tion or anywhere else. We need
trained people who can dothe job
who can command high wages and
earn every cent they are paid.
1--WE need an adult educ ation
program to overcome in some
measure the long years when no
schools we're available TO the ma
jority of our population--to give
new hope TO our most tragically
disabled people able bodied
middle-aged who cannot speak
English. some of whom have great
skills, but cannot follow their trade
to where the Jobs are because they
cannot speak English. We need TO
encourage and assist these people
to educate their children. We must
help the vegetable pickers and
other mskilled migratory work
ers, at least to break the vicious
circle that keeps their children
out OF school and condemns them
in turn to an almost Subhuman ex-
istence.
1--WE need a Tribal employment
program SO that our aid TO those
we help educ ate will not end with
diploma, but continue untilthey are
earning an honorable living in work
worthy of a human being.
while we work for progress,
however, let US not forget the eld-
erly people. our fathers and moth
ers and grandparents, the ex-
amples of their lives and the val
ues they have bequeathed US. In
Navajo times. [volume] (Window Rock, Ariz.) 1960-1984, 1963-09-05

proportion to their gifts and
achievements. 1t is government
with heart, whose helping handis
out to assist the unfortunate, not
b. merely to keep alive in misery,
but to create the greatest posi-
BILE opportunity to revive their
shattered confidence and realize
their potential as human souls.
"The future is no great my
stery, at least in terms of our
responsibility toward it for you
and | the future is baby named
Ashkee, or a little girl named
Bah, most of your obligation and
mine can be stated in terms of
what we owe them.
ITO achieve this goal | pro-
pose first, that the Navajo Nation
adopt a written Constitution, with
Bill OF Rights protecting the
individuals freedom of speech,
association, and religion This, it
has been said, will restrict, rather
than enlarge, the power of the
Tribal Government. Let is be so,
shall never voluntarily surren-
der the ancient sovereignty of the
Navajo people, or barter it away
bit by bit, to private interests or
other governments: but | will re-
strict the power of the Navajo
Government toward the Navajo
people. In my administration, a.
gents will not be sent out from
Window Rock to tell the NavajoS
they cannot worship God in the
way they desire, or cannot Join
organizations of their own choosing
to improve their pay and woi king
conditions, nor will the political
opponents of this administration
be treated as an undergo ound or
otherwise than as citizens with
equal rights to our own to as
semble peaceably. express their
views, however mi staken, and
make their plans, petitions and
demands.
"Only he who makes his people
strong, is strong, and only he who
rules free men is great This shall
be the motto of my administr alton.
"The problems which confront
the Navajo Nation are out of all
proportion TO its relatively small
size. One half Of our adult popu-
lation is deprived OF the vote for
their own President and Repre-
sematives in Congress by State
literacy laws. The average Nava-
JOS income IS less than half the
average Americans. The percen-
tage Of us with the higher educa-
tion necessary to lead our people
to freedom from hunger, want,
and fear is a tiny portion of the
national average. Unemployment
on this Reservation is worse than
in West Virginia.
II believe / know the solutionto
all these problems: but do not
claim will solve them in the four
years of my administration, or
even that they will be solved inthe
lifetime of anyone present. The
solution is both simple and ex-
.remely difficult. 1t isthe develop

INAUGURAL ADDRESS
RAYMOND NAKAI
CHAIRMAN OF THE NAVAJO TRIBAL COUNCIL
APRIL 1868


ajos? My fathers and mothers,
this administration will keep faith
with you and your wise counsel will
ever be remembered.
"Many years ago just following
+he second World War, the Krug
Report stated the basis of the Nav
ajo economic problem was that
5000 people--it is nearer 1OO,-
600 now we're trying to exc out
living in an area with only enough
resources to support $4,000. re-
ject such a ort-sighted view
Switzerland, land with even less
resources, supports over four mil
lion people. Educ alton and skill and
hard work have accomplished this
miracle. 1t cannot be done over
night, but it can be done there.
"As a start, l shall,
in due course, lay before
the Council a proposal for
a thorough economic stu
dy of the Navajo Country,
for such an exhau stive and
imaginative study as has
never before been under
taken here, of all factors,
human and material, which
can contribute to lasting
productivity and employ
ment of our people.
II shall propose a re-
evaluation of our attitude
toward private enterprise
in developing manufacture
ing, extractive> and SER
vice industries on the Re-
servatiOn. I propose that
we tear down the walls of
China that have kept pr1-
vate investment to a min
imum in our Country. I
propose that we establish
a Navajo Chamber of Com
merce, and that we active
ly seek adequate and con-
venient sources of credit
for those who wish to start
enterprises in the Navajo
Country.
"Ipropose thatwe en-
courage development even
IF our mineral resources
in such ways as will give
the g cate st productive
employment to our people.
AS long as l am Chairman,
in each and every case
where we have the alter
native of digging up and
exporting our resources,
often with discriminating
draglines as big as houses,
or of fabricating them On
the Reservation, ] S h al
favor tn e cour Sc WhicI
give S the greatest long
term Navajo employment
regardless of which may
bring in the greatest roy
alties, rentals and bonuses
to the Tribal trea sury.
Il snail seek the advice OF the
surrounding communities, and of
fer them our cooperation on job
giving projects to our common
good.
