DTF 3mm OTCDia The It counties in Western Ore gon in which 0 It C revested lands are located are licking their chops over the information that receipts from those lands for. the land fis cal year, broke previous records, reaching ' over $21,000,000. . The share of the counties is 75 per cent less an amount up to 25 per rent diverted to road construction. They will draw down approxi mately 112,000.000 during the cur rent fiscal year. All of this money goes into the. treasuries of the counties. The largest share goes to Doug las County, which has the largest O k C area, S2.990.449. Jackson County will get 11.897.393. Lane $1,837,619 and Josephine $1,431,509. Other counties get smaller amounts: Marion tl76,23(, Polk 259,4, Linn S3i,7J9, Clackamh S67S.S35, etc. The consequence of this "wind fall" revenue la that levies for county purposes in those counties which get the lion's share are much below those in counties out- side the charmed ch-cle.

Getting the jump on most of their mid-valley neighbors, 860 of the Navajo pupils were al ready cracking into their lessons here Thursday. They will be joined next week bv 100 Indian children from Pa cific 'Northwest tribes. In keeping with the trend of recent years, there will be less Northwest Indian students and more Navajoi than ever before at this federal boarding school. 100 From Northwest Supt. Victor Ex- Hill said the 100 Northwest students compares with 190 last year and 400 only four years ago. The reason is that more and more Northwest Indians are at tending regular publie schools as integration of the Indian race with the rest of the public speeds ahead in Oregon, Washington, Idaho and Montana. This year, for the first time, Indian children from the nearby Grand Ronde and Siletz tribes are not eligible to attend Chema wa. Those tribes recently sold most of their reservations and have relinquished Indian privi leges such as the right to send their children to Chemawa. None From Grand Ronde But there were only two stu dents from Siletz here last year. And none at all from Grand Ronde. Increasingly, Chemawa has be come a school for the Navajos. This year's contingent arrived in 14 big buses from their sprawl ing reservation in' Arizona, New Mexico and Utah. Few Speak English Some 100 of them are at Che mawa for the first time and few of those speak English, according to principal Nell Brannon. But after five to eight vears i here, they will be ready to build , airplanes for Boeing, run trac- j tors for Eastern Oregon ranchers j or to become nurses aids at hos pitals everywhere. Very few, Chemawa officials said, will return permanently to the "badlands" of Arizona and New Mexico.
