- Description:
- The Oklahoma Indian bill aims to authorize the purchase of land for needy Indians and provide them with rehabilitation loans. An appropriation of $2 million would go into general Indian funds, and plans are in place for more funds for education among Oklahoma Indians. Commissioner Collier plans to visit Oklahoma to investigate the state's tribes. There are delays in passing the Oklahoma Indian welfare act, and progress on projects for Indian hospitals and buildings is hindered by funding issues. Collier believes that the act, if passed, will help the Indians become self-sustaining.
