The hearings focused on the Indian Business Development Program, problems of urban Indians, and compensation to the Crow Tribe for certain lands. Testimony was given on a bill to establish the Indian business development program within the Department of the Interior, which had been in existence for a year and provided grants up to 40% of project costs. The testimony highlighted issues with the grant application process, lack of guidelines, and the need for better procedures and criteria for granting funds.
