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. Here are
some comparisons from the U55
34 levies when O k C receipts
were considerably lower. .These
.comparisons are in mills on an
arbitrary basis of assessed valu
ations at SO per cent, to provide
equalization:

Navajoes Given Physical Check as School Starts at Chemawa
560 Navajo
Students at
Indian School
" By CHARLES IRELAND
Valley Editor, The Statesman
CHEMAWA Navajo young
sters, who have Just about taken
over Chemawa Indian School, are
back on tbe historic, old campus
here in record numbers.
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.

Open Meeting
Name Sneaker
i
Rep. Robert Elfstrom, Salem,
listed as one of four candidates
for speaker of the House at the
1957 Legislature, said Thursday he
heartily favors an open conven
tion" to name the speaker.
Earlier two other candidates,
Loran L. .Stewart, Cottage Grove,
and Edward Cardwcll. Sweet
Home, proposed 'the special meet
ing in a letter to Republican mem
bers of the House.
Rep. George Layman, Newberg
Republican, is the fourth aspirant
tor the speakership,
Elfstrorh said any special caucus
to pick a speaker would have to
be called by 195S Speaker Edward
Geary of Klamath Falls.
None of the 1957 speaker candi
dates has yet solicited pledges of
support.
Custom has been for candidates
to solicit support ahead of a legis
lative caucus at which tbe speaker
is named.
Elfstrom ssid he liked the idea
of choosingtite speaker by "open
convoMIHrrwell ahead of the es
sion "because it gives the speaker
some time to organize and prepare
for his job."
