(1) there are more than two thousand minority language groups 
of one hundred and sixty million people, most of whom live in 
remote areas of the world in cultural isolation without books or 
even an alphabet; 
(2) it has been shown that these people are gifted individuals 
whose human resources the world is denied; 
(3) the translation of literacy materials and teachings of moral 
and spiritual significance into minority languages, which requires 
that an alphabet be produced and a thorough grammatical analysis 
of the languages be undertaken, results in an expansion of literacy 
and an improvement of the cultural bases of the language groups 
affected; 
(4) such organizations as the Summer Institute of Linguistics 
composed of linguistic scholars trained at the Universities of 
Oklahoma, North Dakota, Washington, Michigan, Indiana, Cali-
fornia, Pennsylvania, Texas, and elsewhere have undertaken the 
task of bringing literacy to sxich groups;
