![["Senator Elmer Thomas received a letter from Tennyson Berry, a Kiowa-Apache Indian, protesting the Office of Indian Affairs' decision to limit the tribal delegation to one member from each tribe due to budget constraints. The letter explained that although some tribes had enough funds to pay for a larger delegation, Congress had placed limitations on the expenditure of tribal funds for council and delegation expenses. The Office of Indian Affairs had requested a supplemental authorization for additional funds, but it had not been approved yet. Berry expressed disappointment in the decision and requested Senator Thomas' support in securing more funds for the delegation."]](https://jones-2.s3.amazonaws.com/John%20William%20Elmer%20Thomas%20Collection/CAC_CC_053_12_11_16B_0000-Indian%20Affairs,%20Kiowa-Apache,%20Mar.-May,%201946/Thumbnails/CAC_CC_053_12_11_16B_0002_thumbnail.jpg "1946 Correspondence Regarding Tribal Delegation Limitations and Indian Affairs")
![["The document discusses the Indian Claims Commission Bill and the opposition to it. The writer, Mrs. Scott, expresses her disagreement with creating a new government agency for Indian affairs and believes that settling claims should be done without the need for a new commission. She also mentions the different approaches of the Republican and Democratic parties to Indian claims settlement. The Congressman, George B. Schwabe, defends the bill and explains that it was the result of careful study and input from various parties interested in the welfare of the Indians. He also mentions that the bill was supported by both Democrats and Republicans."]](https://jones-2.s3.amazonaws.com/George%20B.%20Schwabe%20Collection%20/CAC_CC_047_1_0000_0000_0000-79th%20Congress,%201945-1947/CAC_CC_047_1_5_54_0000-Indian%20Claims%20Commission,%201945-1946/Thumbnails/CAC_CC_047_1_5_54_0004_thumbnail.jpg "Debating the Indian Claims Commission Bill")
