L. Turner on tribal Indian lands. The lease was initially returned without action but was later approved after Mr. Turner bid on the land at a public auction. There is a question regarding whether the lease complies with regulations under the Act of April 17, 1926. The Commissioner recommends declaring the lease as adopting the tribal lease form for use under the Act of April 17, 1926. The recommendation is approved by the Assistant Secretary.</dc:description></oai_dc:dc>
