![["Rep. Page Belcher of Tulsa believes that there is hope for a $5 billion cut in federal spending under the Nixon administration. He sees a conservative trend in government and supports reductions in spending, particularly in anti-poverty programs. Belcher does not consider himself a reactionary and emphasizes the importance of sound government and scrutinizing appropriations. He criticizes Senate subcommittee tours as potentially being used for political purposes."]](https://jones-2.s3.amazonaws.com/Page%20H.%20Belcher%20Collection,%201951-1972/91st%20Congress-CAC_CC_004_10_0000_0000_0000/CAC_CC_004_10_141_9_0000-Interior%20-%20Departmental%20-%20Bureau%20of%20Indian%20Affairs%20Chilocco%20Indian%20School,%201969/Thumbnails/CAC_CC_004_10_141_9_0048_thumbnail.jpg "Nixon Administration Signals Hope for Reduction in Federal Spending: Rep.
