Expect Navajo Income Larger
WINDOW ROCK Ariz April 11 Increases in the Navajo tribal income are expected from competitive applications for mineral claims on the reservation and a pooling plan for Indian owned wood and lambs. The tribal council has adopted resolutions to effect the two steps toward improvement of the Navajos economic position. Council sessions have been continuing through the week. Indian commissioner John Collier and Navajo supt E R Fryer attended the sessions Collier signing a modified livestock reduction program after its ratification by the council. Plans to pool lambs and wool and obtain competitive bids from outside buyers grew out of charges by a Chin Lee leader that traders are chiefly responsible for our economic ills because they charge too much for their goods and pay too little for wool sheep and blankets.
