![["Mr. Lujan's bill, titled the \"Navajo-Hopi Settlement Act,\" aims to authorize the separation of interests of the Hopi and Navajo Tribes in certain lands set aside in 1882. The bill establishes a Navajo-Hopi Settlement Commission to determine land usage and appraise interests. It also includes provisions for compensating the tribes for any unequal division of land value, with a loan of $18,000,000 to the Navajo tribe. Additionally, the bill provides for the segregation of Hopi interests within the Navajo Reservation and authorizes appropriations for the loan and commission."]](https://jones-2.s3.amazonaws.com/John%20N.%20Happy%20Camp%20Collection/CAC_CC_009_2_67_9_0000-Committee%20on%20Interior%20and%20Insular%20Affairs%20Navaho-Hopi%20Dispute,%201972-1973/Thumbnails/CAC_CC_009_2_67_9a_0018_thumbnail.jpg "\"Overview of the Navajo-Hopi Settlement Act Proposed by Mr. Lujan\"")
