![["The document from the Bureau of Indian Affairs office at Muskogee to Honorable Carl Albert provides information regarding previous distributions of tribal funds to the Chickasaw Nation of Oklahoma. It states that there are no plans for a distribution in the near future due to the limited funds available and ongoing legal proceedings. The document suggests that any future distribution will likely be authorized by Congress after certain conditions are met. The document aims to assist in responding to a query from Mrs. Willie Hays regarding a potential payment to the Chickasaw Indians for the year 1966."]](https://jones-2.s3.amazonaws.com/Carl%20Albert%20Collection,%201947-1977/Departmental,%201945-1976%20(CAC_CC_001_4_0000_0000)/CAC_CC_001_4_52_34_0000-Interior%20-%20Indian%20Affairs%20-%20Chickasaw,%201965/Thumbnails/CAC_CC_001_4_52_34_0010_thumbnail.jpg "Reappointment of Overton James as Governor of the Chickasaw Nation")
