No Shots, No School? Fine!
Thick, neatly-bound volumes
of objectives and related dollar
amounts were delivered
to
members of the Tribal Council
August 15 — right on schedule.
Formal review of the 1979 pro
posed budget for the Confeder-
ated Tribes is expected to begin
August 28.
General manager Ken Smith
told the Council that he and his
staff had worked “fairly hard”
on the budget this year, noting
that it was especially “well laid
out.” He gave credit to Cece
Smith and Jim Sizemore for their
organizational efforts.
B
The proposed budget, which
■ branch managers and depart-
Sment heads will be expected to
J justify to Council, would increase
I expenditures by 28 per cent, add
138.5 new positions, and introduce
m at least six new programs.
F '
The total net appropriation
H proposed for 1979 is $10,155,386,
I an increase of $2,248,666 over
1978.
Tribal revenue is expected to
reach $19,895,503, an increase of
44 per cent over 1978. Even this is
a “conservative projection of
income,” said Smith.
According to the general
Matthew Clements wasn’t at all sure that school was worth all the
trouble, but by law he had to be immunized or “no school.’’ I.H.S. held
special clinics two days this week for shots.

manager’s office, this year’s
budget was notable in two' re
spects. First, the whole process
was moved up one month to give
Tribal Council more time to re
view and consider the 300-plus
pages of figures.
And secondly, the manage
ment by objectives system which
is in its fourth year in the tribal
organization has been made even
more effective.
This year instead of problem-
oriented program needs dictat
ing branch managers’ and over
all tribal goals, management
first designed its objectives and
passed them on to branch man
agers, who then worked out their
„branch objectives in collabora-
tion with department heads. This
new method should prevent the
“‘tail wagging the dog” syn
drome, explained the manager’s
office.
Department heads still ori
ginated their own budgets, with
branch managers reviewing and
assembling them. The branch
budgets were then reviewed de
partment by department by a
management team, in two weeks
of full days and long nights.
With management’s “okay”
the total package was turned
over to Tribal Council, whose job
