Budget discussed by Agency members Continued from page 1
opmentand spoke to the shortage
of Indian teachers and counselors
in the 509-J school district. "If we
don't provide adequate counseling
and help now, we're looking at
serious problems in the future."
Council chairman Zane Jackson
explained the McQuinn blowdown
and said that both the McQuinn
and Warm Springs blocks "con
tinue to be a very valuable resource
for the reservation." He also said
that Council continues to review
the situation and that the Portland
' Area Office director Stan Speaks
has ordered an investigation of the
incident. Nearly IS million board
feet of timber has been removed,
however, there is no breakdown of
the dead and green material taken.
Gene Smith asked if the tribe
could "really expect the BIA to
conduct an objective investigation
of their own people." Jackson
assured the group that if the BIA
investigation was not adequate, the
Tribe would "ask someone else to
do it." s
Mike Clements spoke again, as
stating that he is concerned about
the size of the budget and w hat the
Tribe is getting in return. He also
spoke about the treaty and how it
set aside land for the use by the
Warm Springs people. "But use
and management is being taken
out of the people's hands," he said,
partially referring to the newly
enacted woodcutting policy. "I see
the use of our resources dwind
ling.. .We can't even be out in the
woods to teach our children. I
don't know if our governing body
agrees with that.. Our resources
shouldn't be managed away from
our people. It scares me that our
people are being removed from our
resources. We need to take back
that control."
Clements referred to his strong
belief in education, and economic
development. "Education is buried
in the management system. It is no
longer a 'grant' system but more of
a loan system." He believed that
the Tribe should finance a students
education 100 percent with no Tri
be student ration. "There should
be no loans," he said, and students
should not be required to pay the
Tribes back if they don't meet the
minimum GPA requirement.
Speaking of economic develop-,
ment, Clements encouraged "any
one here to go into business. Ill tell
you one thing, you won't get any
help... Help is pretty tough to find."
Clements also stated that he felt
the budget could be cut 23 percent.
"Make the managers do their jobs.
Those savings should go back to
the young people." I hope to see
changes when the budget is posted.
I want to see our money invested in
our people."
Ken Smith spoke again, assert
ing his belief in good hea'th. "If
you have no health, you have
nothing." He also stated that it is
"difficult to employ every person
who has a college education." He
also explained the management
team put together last year. "We
have tribal members in key posi
tions. I have trust and faith in those
people. Out of the 10 management
m'embers, seven are tribal mem
bers, one is married into the tribe
and two are non-members. Hope
fully, one of those will be prepared
to take my place when the time
comes. "t
Smith encouraged community
involvement in the discovery of
solutions to problems. "We don't
know how to fix all that is wrong
with our community. We need
help. With more meetings, we will
be able to identify the problems,
and more importantly, identify the
solutions to those problems." He
suggested that "we don't point fin
gers at any one tribal council
member, manager or person.
We're all in this together.... We
need to make people responsible
for their actions and health. This
won't happen overnight... Manage
ment can't do it. Tribal Council
can't do it."
