![["A recent act of Congress has handed over the administration of some federal Indian programs to tribes, representing a \"threshhold\" in United States policy. The act allows for the transfer of programs to tribes, but funding and implementation remain uncertain. Urban Indians are not recognized under the act, and there may be challenges in coordinating programs among the 60 recognized tribes. The act is seen as a step towards Indian self-determination, but its effectiveness and impact remain to be seen."]](https://jones-2.s3.amazonaws.com/Dewey%20F.%20Bartlett%20Collection/Subject,%201946-1978-CAC_CC_003_2_0000_0000_0000/CAC_CC_003_2_33_10_0000-Indian%20Self-determination,%201953/Thumbnails/CAC_CC_003_2_33_10_0033_thumbnail.jpg "The Indian Self-Determination Act: A New Era for Tribal Programs")

![["The Anadarko Area Office reorganization was approved in August 1975 to reduce the number of Branch Chiefs reporting to the Area Director and provide a more organized structure. The reorganization resulted in the creation of a new Division of Indian Services and demotions for some employees. Reduction-in-force procedures were applied to employees affected by the reorganization, with salary retention for a two-year period. Some employees have appealed to the Civil Service Commission. Internal movements of employees are expected, but no adverse effects are anticipated. Grade reductions were likely to occur regardless of the reorganization due to a recent Civil Service Commission audit."]](https://jones-2.s3.amazonaws.com/Dewey%20F.%20Bartlett%20Collection/Subject,%201946-1978-CAC_CC_003_2_0000_0000_0000/CAC_CC_003_2_30_3_0000-Indian%20Affairs,%20Bureau%20of%20Indian%20Affairs,%20Anadarko%20Office/Thumbnails/CAC_CC_003_02_30_03_0005_thumbnail.jpg "Anadarko Area Office Reorganization and Personnel Changes")
