The bill establishes a Navajo-Hopi Settlement Commission to determine land usage and appraise interests. It also includes provisions for compensating the tribes for any unequal division of land value, with a loan of $18,000,000 to the Navajo tribe. Additionally, the bill provides for the segregation of Hopi interests within the Navajo Reservation and authorizes appropriations for the loan and commission.
