![["Correspondence between Howard E. Tommie, President of the United Southwestern Tribes, Inc., and various government officials regarding the future of Intermountain School in Brigham City, Utah. Tommie and other tribal leaders are advocating for the school to remain open and to allow enrollment from all tribes. They are proposing a feasibility study to explore alternative uses for the school and are seeking support from government officials to prevent budget cuts and staff reductions at the school. The government officials, including Senator Dewey F. Bartlett and Commissioner of Indian Affairs Morris Thompson, have expressed concern for the future of the school and are willing to work with tribal leaders to ensure that the wishes of the Indian people are considered."]](https://jones-2.s3.amazonaws.com/Dewey%20F.%20Bartlett%20Collection/Subject,%201946-1978-CAC_CC_003_2_0000_0000_0000/CAC_CC_003_2_34_3_0000-Indian%20Affairs,%20Intermountain%20School,%201973%20June/Thumbnails/CAC_CC_003_2_34_3_0004_thumbnail.jpg "Preserving Intermountain School: A Call for Action")
![["In FY 74, the House passed a bill appropriating $200,000 for the Chilocco Indian School for a Design and Master Site Plan, but the Senate bill had no similar appropriation. The Chilocco School Board and Oklahoma House delegation urged for the money to remain in the bill, but Senator Bellmon did not push for its inclusion as he wants a statewide study of educational and health facilities for Indians first. Bellmon has been opposed to Indian resident schools, but it is unclear if this is true. There is uncertainty about how to advocate for the funding if the one conferee from Oklahoma does not support it."]](https://jones-2.s3.amazonaws.com/John%20N.%20Happy%20Camp%20Collection/CAC_CC_009_1_26_20_0000-Interior%20Bureau%20of%20Indian%20Affairs.%20Chilocco%20School,%201973/Thumbnails/CAC_CC_009_1_26_20_0024_thumbnail.jpg "Preserving Intermountain School: A Call for Action")
