![["The document discusses a bill introduced in the House of Representatives to authorize the acquisition of a village site for the Payson Band of Yavapai-Apache Indians. The site, not to exceed 85 acres, will be selected in the Tonto National Forest in Arizona. The bill also authorizes the recognition of the tribe as a tribe of Indians and the appropriation of funds for the acquisition of the land. The Committee on Interior and Insular Affairs recommended the bill with amendments, including conveying the land to a membership corporation composed of band members and reserving mineral rights to the United States. The purpose of the bill is to relocate the Indians to a more suitable site from their current unsanitary living conditions."]](https://jones-2.s3.amazonaws.com/John%20N.%20Happy%20Camp%20Collection/CAC_CC_009_2_67_21_0000-Committee%20on%20Interior%20and%20Insular%20Affairs%20Bills%20-%20Analysis,%201970-1971/Thumbnails/CAC_CC_009_2_67_21_0005_thumbnail.jpg "\"Bill Authorizing Acquisition of Village Site for the Payson Band of Yavapai-Apache Indians: A Congressional Record\"")
