SMALL BUSINESS DEVELOPMENT

THE REPORT on Planning A Balanced Economic
Development Program for these Islands, especially as
it relates to small business, should be required reading
for everybody in these parts. Of course businessmen
should make it their duty to look into il, study il, and be
guided by it. Politicians, when they have time for mere
than beating the grass roots, should make this study
their c~atechism, for it will help them be better leaders
and statesmen.
THERE is nothing earth-shaking about the report.
But it does bring into focus not only that which should
have been advanced 25 years ago, and-by this time
some concrete steps might have produced results.
BUT WHAT Of the future? Is there to be one more
report, to be read casually, and then put aside to gather
dust on the shelves of homes and schools? Are we to go
our merry way content to leave everything to the Gov
eminent, and let things take care care of themselves?
If that attitude is maintained then the future is indeed
a gloomy one. 49,
TROUBLE with us is that we have not been
willing to tackle the major problems which have beset
us all these years. And if and when a problem is met,
W meet it in such a t~rifling, petty manner that the re-
suits are almost unnoticeable. The production Of cleo
trical energy is a case in point.
IN HIS DAY and time, electricity is perhaps the
most necessary part Of our lives. Each & every day sees
more electrical equipment being used in the home, and
in the factories. On this energy depends SO much else
that we cannot think of step number two without first
taking care Of step number one. Yet, in planning for
electrical energy, we think in terms Of a limited supply
THERE is so much in this report that deserves
urgent attention that it will require much time and
energy to digest and to comment. But each and every
, 1963-10-21

phase is worth the closest attention Of one and all.
The first step, however, is to get a good, working know
edge Of the report Itself.

Young Says Cong.
Powell Sowing
O. Seeds Of DiScord'

New York, March % - Whitney
M. Young, Jr., executive director
of the National Urban League,
decried as unfortunate the critic
ism voiced in Washington last
night by Congressman Adam Clay
ton Powell, directed at the Urban
League the NAACP and other
organizations working to secure
equal opportunity for Negro citi-
zens.
"At a time when the whole
world is crying for and working
toward unity" he said, 1T comes
as a terrible shock to hear the
voice of a person of Congressman
Powells national stature, sowing
the seeds of racial discord."
Ffid For more than half a century
the Urban League, with white and
Negro citizens working together
throughout the nation, has stead
fastly directed its total effort to-
ward securing equal opportunities
and full civil rights for Negro
citizens. The record over the years
clearly demonstrates the wisdom
and soundness of this interracial
program and approach.

The decision was written by

A tax cut at the present time certainly

Of the objective-to what extent does it add

of this yardstick, $4.8 billion tax cut out
of $10.3 billion total for the is percent of

The needed tax cut, this year, then,

greatest economic impact out of each dollar

cut proposed by President Kennedy is close
to the amount suggested by the AFL-CIO.
His desire to relieve hardship and close tax

what to do, what decision to
make: leave the superficial zap
ron strings" of the reservation
and get out on my own for my
own good or to stay and put faith
in our tribal leaders and hope
in the "rehab" of the reserva-
ton. So If something within the
reservation boundaries coul d
come into function, the back

ers could take advantage. 1t
would have to be something
practical as the Blackfeet are

like me are way Out"
E. Education is not the whole
answer to the problem. Educa-
ton is for those who want it.
You can lead a horse to water,
but you can't make him drink,
as the old saying goes. 1t has to
be remembered that the tribe as
a whole are not academically in
clined. The Indian should be
greatly urged to get an educa-
ton, but before that education
can be followed through with
and had, it's going to take a GER
tain amount of rekindling of our
own understanding of freedom,
justice and equality. These are
the elements I believe that are
and will continue to be OF para
mount Importance to America If
ii is to remain the America we
know.
An enduring attempt at true
citizenship will gain the reserva-
ton and its councilmen more
prestige at Washington, DC.
Then maybe the badly needed
benefits will reach the people.

skill, as we'll as deep sincereness,

trouble to care. As | said, free
dom, Justice and equality seem
like precepts far detached from
daily living, but If they are ex'
amined and followed a little
more closely, they can prove to
be just what the reservation
needs.
If we are Indians, let's be
proud of our heritage, but real

are to maintain a reservation we

INDIAN YOUTH SAYS:
Indians Must Learn To Plan For The Future

that is rushing past him.
First of all, they lack initiative
Except if they want a fifth under
their BELTS. This drinking is a
signal problem also. Second,
jealousy among themselves sep
arates them as a tribe" They
can see philosophically what
their fate is by taking into con-
sideration, "a nation divided
falls; a nation united, stands"
This inner antagonism means
that the reservation won't be
around too much longer. Third,
their voting is not unwise, but
they fail to get an integritous
functioning officer for the COM.
mon good by: Vote for
He's my buddy. He's a good guy.
He's a lot of fun" Consequently,
their tribal officers are either
too dumb or too smart" You've
probably heard what they apply
to one of the present tribal of
ficers: The yes man." And then
again, the people trudge to the
tribal office day after day, year
in and year out, for the purpose
of only checking on the recelv-
ing end: what they themselves,
will reap from the already bleed
ing budget of the Blackfeet tribe.
So maybe here a little Indian
citizenship might help by taking
John F.'s unselfish maxim into
mind: do not think what your
country can do for you, but what
YOU can do for your country"
About the only approach left
TO maintain and reinstill the sal
walton and self-commltment of
the Indian Is some kind of real
effectual propaganda. That
would take a little time to work
out and II seems a little fan
tastic but, If you know what /
mean, something like school spir'
il could be Lit among the Indians
and II could possibly do wonders.
L believe that it's primarily
a moral issue. And propaganda,
maybe disrupting their pride a
little, Is about the most feasible
approach. They have to be shown
that the ultimate goal In daily
living Is not just tight roof
over head, enough to eat, a car
in running condition, etc. They
have to be given a purpose and
an enduring goal that they would
like to attain ardently. After
something like that can be sys-
tented, then, maybe, the spirit
of competition will arise and not
the inner antagonism Of fellow
jealousy.
Some of the programs at home
that are going now are good, but
the idea of leaving home and the
reservation are what's keeping
them from taking advantage of
them. I, personally, want to see
the reservation flourish some
how, and yet want the Indian
10 progress and make his mark In
the world and this. like me, sets
others in a sort of a dilemma oi
