![["Mrs. Susan Younghawk Coons of Pawnee, Oklahoma had complained about her oil royalty payments not being received on time. The Department of Interior, Geological Survey of Oklahoma investigated the matter and found that all complaints were unfounded. They provided a detailed account of the oil production and royalty payments made by both Gulf Coast Western and Wilkonson. Mrs. Coons was advised to check with the Indian Agency at Pawnee to confirm that the payments had been credited to her account. The department also addressed her concerns about delays in payments on Indian leases compared to non-Indian leases, stating that they were not aware of any discrimination in payments. Congressman Page Belcher assured Mrs. Coons that he would check into the matter further if she still felt confused after reading the department's response."]](https://jones-2.s3.amazonaws.com/Page%20H.%20Belcher%20Collection,%201951-1972/83rd%20Congress-CAC_CC_004_2_0000_0000_0000/CAC_CC_004_2_12_18_0000-Indian%20Affairs%20-%20General.,%201952-1953/Thumbnails/CAC_CC_004_2_12_18_0013_thumbnail.jpg "Correspondence Regarding Susan Younghawk Coons' Oil Royalty Payments Investigation")
