Subject: Update on Navajo-Hopi "land dispute"

This is a report for 11-16-93. No impoundment taking place yet in Big Mt
or Teesto. I drove by the BIA corral at Keams Cyn yesterday and saw 2
horses there. All 3 livestock trailers were parked there. Navajo-Hopi
Land Commission Office field staff told me that Hopi rangers were up and
around, but no unusual activity. They seem more interested in "illegal"
wood cutting. The impoundment looks like it is on hold, who knows for
how long? Alvin Clinton and Elmer Clark will go to DC Thurs on to meet
w/ Ada Deer. They ask for your prayers. /S/ Jon Norstog.
I will try to send a longer msg. but have not been having much luck w/ my
communications software.
