April 21, 1950 Public School Attendance for Indians Backed " : - : . f AmHran Indiana are entitled to an equal break In education and haven't been getting; It, de clared Harvey Wright of the state department of education Thurs day. '. . 'i ' But the state leader responsible for Indian education struck an encouraging note ; in his address before Salem Lions club by stat ing that young Indians have fit Tvell into the regular public schools where this opportunity has been opened to them. Principal obstacle to educating Indians in Oregon's school systems has been the long-nurtured pre judice of white men against In dian and Indian against white man, Wright declared. He maintained that most of the "-prejudice against Indians has been hniit un horause of the low-stand ard of living conditions Which the U. S. government and its non Indian citizens forced upon bulk of the Indian population. He sai this has amounted to "peonage" or 'concentration camp .life" for the Indians. Despite these prejudices, Indians have been admitted to Oregon schools in recent years and have proven themselves adaptable and good students, said Wright. He pointed to the education ofi an Indian girl for some leader at one school, regular positions for four Indian boys on another I city's Junior Legion team, election of an Indian boy as student body president at yet another school.
