Correspondence Regarding Land Transfer to Cherokee Indian Tribe of Oklahoma in 19631963-01-01Monroney, A. S. Mike (Almer Stillwell Mike), 1902-1980http://rightsstatements.org/vocab/NKC/1.0/enghttp://congressarchives.org/record/CAC_CC_038_8_32_17_0019The Cherokee Nation of Oklahoma is seeking to regain possession of certain lands at Chalaco Indian School, which they had previously sold to the United States for educational purposes. They are willing to pay $3.75 per acre for the land and want it to be set aside in trust for them. The land is currently being used for farming and grazing purposes, and the Cherokee Nation wants to lease it to Cherokee-blooded farmers. Senators Monroney and Edmondson are requesting expedited committee action on the bill.
