Appointment of Mr. Allen G. Harper, of Billings, Mon
tana, as General Superintendent of the Navajo Reserva
tion was announced by Secretary of the Interior Krug.
Harper has been Assistant Regional Director of the
Indian Bureau at Billings since 1946. *
Secretary Krug said he drafted Harper for the Navajo
post after "thorough discussion” with Indian Commis
sioner John R. Nichols.
"We believe Harper is,eminently qualified to admin
ister the long-range Navajo program which I have sub
mitted to the Congress.” Krug said in a statement.
Mr. Harper succeeded James M. Stewart, whom Sec
retary Krug said will become State Director of the Calif
ornia Agency at Sacramento. "Stewart leaves the Navajo
rese'rvation after seven years of carrying heavy burden,
complicated by lack of funds and personnel during the
war years. It was during his incumbency that The Long
range Plan was formulated.” said Krug in his statement.
Mr. Stewart said, at a gathering of friends at a farewell
party just before he left that "the Navajo problem is
not going to be solved by Congress, nor by the Superin
tendent and his staff.
"It is going to come from the Navajo people, It is
going to come from within, in their thinking. It already
has started and it is going to come soon.”
"In leaving the Navajo I want you to remember the
Navajos are human beings, totally concerned with their
own human problems. Their problems are not entirely
economic, as some suggested. And I want to urge you to
give them your help and understanding.”
Mr. Harper, the new General Superintendent, is now
on duty at Window Rock. Before coming to the Navajo
Service he had acquaintance with the Navajo area and
its problems. His coming has added much to those in
terested in the Navajo people and their future.
One of Mr. Harper’s early official acts as General
Superintendent was the announcement of the appointment
of Mr. Walter O. Olson as Assistant Superintendent of
the Navajo Service.
