![["Howard Anderson's bid on mineral interests involving a part of the original allotment of Mary Ellis Burt, Ponca No. 343 was rejected. The Bureau of Indian Affairs explained that the notice Anderson received was not a notification of high bid, but to ascertain how he wanted the deed drafted. The bid rejection was due to a misunderstanding, and Anderson was refunded his deposit. If the owners decide to readvertise the property, Anderson will have an opportunity to submit a new bid."]](https://jones-2.s3.amazonaws.com/A.%20S.%20Mike%20Monroney%20Collection,%201938-1968/CAC_CC_038_8_32_16_0000-Interior,%20Interior%20and%20Insular%20Affairs,%20Indians,%20A-B,%201963/CAC_CC_038_8_32_16_0002.pdf "Correspondence Regarding Rejection of Bid on Mineral Rights of Mary Ellis Burt, Ponca No. 343")
![["The letter is regarding the Pawnee Tribal Claim and the decision on whether the funds should be distributed per capita or used for reservation development programs. The Pawnee Tribe is in favor of per capita payments, as many tribal members do not live near the reservation and believe they should have a say in how the funds are used. The letter expresses concern about the undemocratic nature of investing the funds without individual consent."]](https://jones-2.s3.amazonaws.com/A.%20S.%20Mike%20Monroney%20Collection,%201938-1968/CAC_CC_038_8_32_21_0000-Interior,%20Interior%20and%20Insular%20Affairs,%20Indians,%20M-R,%201963/CAC_CC_038_8_32_21_0010.pdf "Correspondence Regarding the Disposition of the Pawnee Judgment Award in 1963")
![["Amos Hopkins wrote to inquire about certification of entitlement to public domain Indian land. The Bureau of Indian Affairs delegated the authority to issue Certificates of Eligibility to the Anadarko Area Director, who considers applications on an individual basis. The Bureau of Land Management does not maintain a list of public domain lands, so it is the responsibility of the applicant to locate suitable land. The Kiowa Land Association's list of member-applicants cannot be considered a blanket application, and each member must apply individually. Senator Mike Monroney forwarded Hopkins' concerns to the Bureau, and they assured that applications will be duly considered. The Kiowa Tribal Land Association requested assistance in obtaining Certificates of Eligibility, citing discrepancies in the Bureau's actions and requesting an investigation into Indian Bureau policies."]](https://jones-2.s3.amazonaws.com/A.%20S.%20Mike%20Monroney%20Collection,%201938-1968/CAC_CC_038_8_32_20_0000-Interior,%20Interior%20and%20Insular%20Affairs,%20Indians,%20G-L,%201963/CAC_CC_038_8_32_20_0034.pdf "Correspondence Regarding Certification of Entitlement to Public Domain Indian Land")
