Indians encouraged to speak out M inneap o lis, M innesota, October 29: The president of the largest national Indian organization today issued a call for Indian people to respond to the challenges of modern times. “Indian people have dealt with adversity many times before,” said Art Hill of the National Education Associa tion (NIEA). “Now is the time to show courage in the face of adversity.” “There is a need to speak out on Indian issues,” he added. “One of our goals is to leave our annual convention in New Orleans with a united stand on the issues.” Mr. Hill said the upcoming Annual Convention of NIEA is expected to have the largest attendance in the Association’s history. Because of the urgency of the issues, he added, Indian people from all over the nation are a tten d in g in m assive numbers. He said one tribe is preparing to send 200 delegates to the convention, which would be the largest single total for any tribe in the history of the Association. Other tribes and In d ia n o rg a n iz a tio n s a te sending delegations ranging in size from six people to 35. At least 18 tribes and organizations have declared that they will send six or more delegates, he said. These commitments and others will drive the overall attendance to record levels. The norm al attendance is 4-5,000 people. Among the issues are the basic relationship of the federal government to Indian tribes. It is extremely important, he added, for the U.S. government to honor the commitments it made to Indian people through treaties, and that the treaty relationship of the tribes to the government be maintained.
