![["The document from Mr. Walter B. Hall, Executive Director of the Choctaw Housing Authority, explains that families without Indian Roll Numbers were dropped from the housing program due to a lack of available houses. The Speaker, Carl Albert, is forwarding letters from families who were promised Indian housing but were later turned down. The families are requesting assistance in remedying the situation and feel they are entitled to houses under the program."]](https://jones-2.s3.amazonaws.com/Carl%20Albert%20Collection,%201947-1977/Departmental,%201945-1976%20(CAC_CC_001_4_0000_0000)/CAC_CC_001_4_90_54_0000-Housing%20and%20Urban%20Development%20-%20Indian%20Housing,%201971/Thumbnails/CAC_CC_001_4_90_54_0001_thumbnail.jpg "Title: Land Transfer Legislation for Eastern Oklahoma A&M College")
![["Mr. Lona Paul is in dire need of help and has reached out to Honorable Carl Albert for information regarding the Choctaw settlement. The Bureau of Indian Affairs in Muskogee has provided information stating that it may take some time, possibly years, before the settlement is made. The Act of August 25, 1959, authorizes the Secretary of the Interior to sell Choctaw tribal lands and distribute funds, but no decision has been made yet on the distribution of funds. The formation of a corporate entity under Oklahoma State Law is under consideration, with a deadline of August 25, 1965. Mr. Paul is anxious about the settlement and is seeking information on when they will receive their share."]](https://jones-2.s3.amazonaws.com/Carl%20Albert%20Collection,%201947-1977/Departmental,%201945-1976%20(CAC_CC_001_4_0000_0000)/CAC_CC_001_4_47_53_0000-Interior-Bureau%20of%20Indian%20Affairs-Choctaw,%201964/Thumbnails/CAC_CC_001_4_47_53_0007_thumbnail.jpg "Update on Choctaw Settlement Status")
