![["The document is from Levi W. Jones to Congressman George B. Schwabe, discussing the extension of time for filing claims with the Indian Claims Commission and suggesting that contracts be approved by the Secretary of the Interior to prevent fraud and corruption by chiselers and grafters. Congressman Schwabe responds, stating that the Secretary of the Interior usually approves recommendations made by the Commissioner of Indian Affairs and he will consider other methods to prevent interference in the selection of attorneys for Indian tribes. The documents highlight concerns about fraudulent contracts and the need for oversight in Indian claims cases."]](https://jones-2.s3.amazonaws.com/George%20B.%20Schwabe%20Collection%20/82nd%20Congress,%201951-1953-CAC_CC_047_3_0000_0000_0000/CAC_CC_047_3_27_54_0000-Indians,%201951/Thumbnails/CAC_CC_047_3_27_54_0007_thumbnail.jpg "Reforming Indian Claims Commission Contracts: A Call for Transparency and Accountability")
