![["Mrs. Margaret Sands wrote to U.S. Senator Dewey Bartlett regarding the distribution of funds awarded to the Creek Indians by the Indian Claims Commission. She enclosed a petition signed by a group of Creek Indian citizens who do not agree with Chief Claude Cox's plan for the funds and are requesting that the money be distributed per capita.

![["The document is an affidavit written by Myrtle M. Brady regarding her concerns about the actions of the Creek Tribal Chief, Claude Cox. She accuses Cox of being more interested in his own glory than in serving the tribal people, and criticizes his administration for being dictatorial and not allowing input from the Creeks. Brady expresses her desire for the Bureau of Indian Affairs to acknowledge her testimony and provide her with information about a previous meeting."]](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_0015_thumbnail.jpg "Affidavit of Myrtle Mae Monday Brady: Seeking Justice for the Creek Tribal Nation")
