![["Calvin W. Kinsey is concerned about potential erosion of the Federal merit system of employment in the Executive Branch due to changes in the Bureau of Indian Affairs. The changes will give more authority to superintendents and area directors, and some current officials will be replaced within 90 days. Navajo Chairman-elect Peter MacDonald supports the idea of Navajos filling key positions in the BIA. The goal is to allow Native Americans to control their own affairs and prioritize resources for accomplishments."]](https://jones-2.s3.amazonaws.com/Carl%20Albert%20Collection,%201947-1977/Departmental,%201945-1976%20(CAC_CC_001_4_0000_0000)/CAC_CC_001_4_82_55_0000-Interior%20-%20Bureau%20of%20Indian%20Affairs%20-%20Reorganization,%201970/Thumbnails/CAC_CC_001_4_82_55_0012_thumbnail.jpg "Concerns Over Changes to Federal Employment System in the Executive Branch")

![["The Affiliated Tribes of the Northwest Indians are strongly opposed to a plan to regionalize BIA education without consultation with Indian tribes. The rationale for regionalizing BIA education includes placing line control of Indian schools under professional educators, allowing for more effective use of education positions, and better meeting the objectives of Indian education at the regional level. Regionalization would also facilitate transfer of BIA education facilities to public school districts and potentially allow for local control of schools by Indian groups. The plan is still in the initial planning stage and is subject to debate."]](https://jones-2.s3.amazonaws.com/Carl%20Albert%20Collection,%201947-1977/Departmental,%201945-1976%20(CAC_CC_001_4_0000_0000)/CAC_CC_001_4_82_55_0000-Interior%20-%20Bureau%20of%20Indian%20Affairs%20-%20Reorganization,%201970/Thumbnails/CAC_CC_001_4_82_55_0005_thumbnail.jpg "Affiliated Tribes of Northwest Indians: Opposition to the Regionalization of BIA Education Plan")
