![["The University of Oklahoma is seeking to establish an Institute of Indian Education to serve the Indian population in the United States. The population of Indians in Oklahoma is significant, making it an ideal location for the institute. Education for Indian youth is a priority, as there is a demand for more comprehensive courses of study. The institute would also address social and health issues faced by the Indian population. Oklahoma has a cooperative educational environment and a large Indian population that would benefit from the proposed institute."]](https://jones-2.s3.amazonaws.com/Fred%20R.%20Harris%20Collection/CAC_CC_026_1_41_12_0000-Indian%20Affairs,%201966/Thumbnails/CAC_CC_026_1_41_12_0062_thumbnail.jpg "Letter from Senator Fred R.

![["The letter is discussing an opportunity for American Indian arts and crafts to be displayed and sold at the All Nations Day Festival in Baltimore. The festival is a \"world's fair\" that aims to bring people of different nationalities together. The letter suggests that the Indian group should start preparing early to bring in wares from Reservations for sale. The writer, Edna G. Sloan, also mentions that her sister will be in Washington soon and would like to meet with LaDonna Harris to discuss the festival. Sloan expresses a strong desire for the Indian display to be the best and asks for help in obtaining Indian things for the festival."]](https://jones-2.s3.amazonaws.com/Fred%20R.%20Harris%20Collection/CAC_CC_026_3_283_8_0000-LaDonna%20Harris,%20Meetings%20Declined,%20June-December,%201967/Thumbnails/CAC_CC_026_3_283_8_0020_thumbnail.jpg "Invitation to Promote American Indian Arts and Crafts at the All Nations Day Festival")
