![["Senator Dewey Bartlett has introduced two bills to distribute almost $1.8 million in previously appropriated funds to the Creek Indians of Oklahoma. One bill allocates $1,346,000 to be divided between the Creek Indians of Oklahoma and others east of the Mississippi River, while the other bill provides $450,000 to the Creek Nation of Oklahoma for approved purposes. These funds are to pay Creek claims stemming from 19th Century treaties with the federal government. The settlement offer was made to avoid further litigation on the issue of land value."]](https://jones-2.s3.amazonaws.com/Dewey%20F.%20Bartlett%20Collection/Subject,%201946-1978-CAC_CC_003_2_0000_0000_0000/CAC_CC_003_2_28_0000-Indian%20Affairs,%20Creek%20Nation,%201971%20Sept.%20-%201978%20June.,%201971-1978/Thumbnails/CAC_CC_003_2_30_28_0037_thumbnail.jpg "Legislation for Creek Funds Distribution")
![["Dewey F. Bartlett, a U.S. Senator from Oklahoma, wrote to Nancy Hanks, Chairman of the National Endowment for the Arts, requesting a copy of her reply to a letter from the Cherokee National Historic Society regarding potential conflicts between their policies and legislation. The document from the Cherokee National Historic Society outlined their struggles as a small non-profit organization to access Endowment programs due to policies that favored larger, well-funded organizations. The organization cited challenges with deadlines for applications, matching fund requirements, and commitments to artists and experts, which disadvantaged smaller organizations like theirs."]](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_13_0000-Indian%20Affairs,%20Cherokee,%201946%20Jan.%20-%201978%20Aug.,%201946-1978/Thumbnails/CAC_CC_003_2_30_13_0027_thumbnail.jpg "Small Organizations and National Endowment for the Arts: A Call for Policy Change")
