The bill relates to a treaty from 1865 where the Osages agreed to sell their land to the US in exchange for a sum of money. The court found that the Osages did not fully understand the treaty and protested when they learned that the proceeds were being used for other tribes. A bill to reimburse the Osages for this discrepancy has been introduced in Congress. The Secretary recommends a direct appropriation to avoid delays and expenses associated with court action.

The Osage chiefs who signed the treaty were full-blood blanket Indians who did not speak English, and the negotiations were conducted through interpreters. The Osages believed the "civilization fund" created by the treaty would benefit only their tribe, but the funds were used for the benefit of other tribes as well. The Osages protested against this interpretation and sought relief through Congress. Ultimately, only a small portion of the funds were used for the Osage tribe, and the rest was returned to the Treasury.

The treaty was negotiated with limited language abilities of the Osages and the interpretation of the terms, particularly the "civilization fund," was disputed. The Osages protested when they learned the fund was being used for other tribes and have been complaining and seeking legal assistance since then. The bone of contention is the language in the treaty regarding the sale of land and the creation of the civilization fund.

The Osages were tricked into ceding their land in exchange for very little compensation, which was then used for other tribes. The document highlights the lack of communication and understanding between the Osages and the government, as well as the legal battles and protests that followed. The Court of Claims ruled in favor of the Indians, but legislative action on the issue has been unsuccessful.

Schwabe expressing the Federation's disagreement with the Indian Claims Commission Bill introduced by Representative Stigler. The Federation believes the bill does not fulfill the Republican party's national platform pledges of 1940 and 1944 regarding Indian claims. They urge Congressman Schwabe to introduce a bill that will lead to an immediate settlement of all Indian claims. Congressman Schwabe responds, expressing his willingness to work with the Indian leaders to determine the best course of action and requesting their input on what kind of bill they would like to see introduced. He also invites them to meet with him in person to discuss the issue further.

Schwabe discusses his intention to introduce a bill in Congress to create a commission to investigate the individual competency of Native Americans and the removal of their restrictions. He believes that many intelligent Native Americans are capable of handling their own affairs and should no longer be considered restricted by the government. However, he also recognizes the need for a competency board to assess the qualifications of individual Native Americans before removing restrictions. He suggests that members of the commission should be selected from the tribes themselves and that the findings of the commission should be final, with the Secretary of the Interior issuing orders based on their determinations. Mr. Schwabe seeks input and suggestions from Mr. F. W. Files, an attorney with experience working with Native Americans, on the proposed bill.
