![["Senator Dewey F. Bartlett has written to Secretary Patricia Harris regarding difficulties faced by the Kiowa Housing Authority in obtaining assistance from the HUD Area Office in Oklahoma City for their Mutual-Help housing project. The HUD Area Office has recommended the use of Community Development Block Grant funds to repair the homes, but the Kiowa Tribe's application did not include funds for repair work. Additionally, the KHA is facing management deficiencies due to staff resignations and lack of capable employees. The Area Office is willing to fund the repair work once the KHA has employed a capable staff."]](https://jones-2.s3.amazonaws.com/Dewey%20F.%20Bartlett%20Collection/Subject,%201946-1978-CAC_CC_003_2_0000_0000_0000/CAC_CC_003_2_33_5_0000-Indian%20Affairs,%20Housing,%201973%20Mar/Thumbnails/CAC_CC_003_2_33_5_0025_thumbnail.jpg "Kiowa Tribe Housing Concerns: A Call for Action")

![["During a Senate Subcommittee field hearing on Indian housing in Oklahoma, Glenn W. Edwards, Executive Director of the Absentee Shawnee Tribal Housing Authority, expressed gratitude for past efforts but highlighted challenges in obtaining housing units for the tribe. They have received allocations but face delays in completing units due to bureaucratic hurdles. The tribe has a high demand for housing due to economic conditions, and statistics on housing needs are deemed inaccurate. The Authority recommends new legislation to provide more housing units for Indian people. Concerns are raised about the allocation of housing units for the state of Oklahoma and the possible relocation of the Indian Housing program office. Edwards believes the Oklahoma City office is best equipped to address the tribe's housing needs."]](https://jones-2.s3.amazonaws.com/Dewey%20F.%20Bartlett%20Collection/Subject,%201946-1978-CAC_CC_003_2_0000_0000_0000/CAC_CC_003_2_33_2_0000-Indian%20Affairs,%20Housing,%201973/Thumbnails/CAC_CC_003_2_33_2_0016_thumbnail.jpg "Challenges and Recommendations for Indian Housing in Oklahoma: A Senate Subcommittee Field Hearing")
