they already havg nine paid holidays which costs ttié’tax payers
approxim ately $4Q0,000 a year and $3 million to $4 m illion a year
lost in production.
The Tribes have eight paid holidays at the present tim e an d to-
add another one such as the K ing D ay w ould cost the Tribes a
pretty penny. So if the people think the tribes are spending too
much bucks on the operating budget we d o n ’t need the Kittg Day.
