down together to determine what those facts are and determine how much is involved in emotion and see how much of the emotion can be eliminated and get down to hard tacks. This program that we are all with is a most complex problem. Of that I have no doubt. Because it deals with all of the complexities of human [[strikethrough]] people [[/strikethrough]] life regarding between 400,000 to 450,000 people and with all of the varying problems ranging from resources to social welfare and including all the different phases of the work that affect the normal population within the U.S. generally and it is bound to be complex. And in that kind of a complex situation, it is essential that we look at the whole picture as we develop our planning rather than any one particular phase, [[strikethrough]] and if we don't [[strikethrough]] because if we don't, we will do something in one function that [[strikethrough]] we are doing [[/strikethrough]] will interrupt something that is going on over here and it will not gear properly in providing a constructive program. [[paragraph sign]]Now what are some of the things that need to be considered in that kind of a programming operation? First of all, I believe that it is going to be essential to provide the kind of educational program for Indians that is available to everyone else. I have been delighted in traveling through this north country to learn that in most states where I visited there are very few separate and segregated Indian schools left [[strikethrough]] and [[/strikethrough]] but that the Indian youngsters are going to public schools.

I [[strikethrough]] feel [[/strikethrough]] believe that very strongly, and I think we are going to see a good deal more results than we anticipate as a result of some recent moves made in that direction. There are certain areas where it is going to be difficult because of isolation, because of the tremendous problem involved to work that out, but in spite of that I hope to see the time when that will be the case and where there isn't a divided interest in that respect. I repeat, that [[/strikethrough]] one of the [[strikethrough]] I think that one of the most important things that we all have to fight for is 4
