Indian Ruins To Become Public Housing
| State Public Housing officials proposed
using Arizona's numerous Indian ruins as a source of public housing
for the poor.
"With a minimum amount of repairs, many of
these ruins are perfect for low income residences," noted Leland
Sork, head of housing,"if you don't mind that they're
haunted". |
 |
| Not surprisingly, state
Indian leaders were aghast at the proposal. "These are the sacred
homes of our ancestors," noted Chief Running Brook of the Santa
Catalina Apache Tribe. When asked why modern Indians don't live in
the ruins, Running Brook answered, "they're too far from the cities
and they don't have plumbing." The chief added, off the record, that
the ruins weren't in good casino
locations. |
