Changes include establishing a uniform maximum maturity of 15 months for all new instalment credits, simplifying refinancing provisions, and setting down payment requirements for specific goods. The Board believes that this revision will make the regulation more understandable and effective in influencing economic stability.

The Indian Claims Commission upheld the Indians' claim to approximately 130,000 acres of land, with 50,000 acres being discussed for conveyance to the Indians. The legislation would transfer the entire Blue Lake Area to Taos Pueblo by trust patent to protect their religious practices and cultural heritage. The Pueblo Council argues that ownership of the land is necessary to preserve their religious privacy and natural ecology, as well as to advance the welfare of their community. The Forest Service's administration of the area has been problematic, leading the Pueblo to seek return of the land.

The Navajo were given a reservation in 1868, but continued to encroach on Hopi lands. In 1882, a reservation was created for the Hopi to prevent further encroachment. In 1934, Congress expanded the Navajo reservation, including some Hopi living in the area. Conflict between the tribes continued, leading to a court decision in 1958 giving both tribes joint ownership of the disputed land.

In 1938, funds were appropriated for the purchase of a reservation for the Pit River Indians, leading to the establishment of the XL Ranch Indian Reservation. However, there is a dispute over who should benefit from the reservation, with a small group known as the Pit River Home and Agricultural Cooperative Association monopolizing the land. This group has excluded other Pit River Indians from the reservation, leading to bitterness and resentment among the community. The Bureau of Indian Affairs has shown favoritism towards the Association, further exacerbating the dispute. There are also concerns about the lack of communication and resources provided to the broader Pit River Tribe. Overall, there is a complex and ongoing dispute over the ownership and management of the XL Ranch Indian Reservation.
