![["The document is a letter from George B. Schwabe, a member of Congress, to Joseph Bruner, discussing the challenges of investigating claims of the Native American tribes by a Committee of Congress. Schwabe expresses concern about the complexity and magnitude of the claims, and doubts that they can be effectively addressed by Congress. Bruner, on the other hand, advocates for a final settlement between the Indians and the Federal Government, allowing them to use their property without government supervision. The document emphasizes the need for fairness and justice in resolving the claims of the Native American tribes."]](https://jones-2.s3.amazonaws.com/George%20B.%20Schwabe%20Collection%20/CAC_CC_047_1_0000_0000_0000-79th%20Congress,%201945-1947/CAC_CC_047_1_5_40_0000-Indian%20Affairs,%201945/Thumbnails/CAC_CC_047_1_5_40_0004_thumbnail.jpg "A Call for Justice: The Indian Property Issue")

![["In the letter dated March 6, 1945, Mr. George B. Schwabe discusses his intention to introduce a bill in Congress to create a commission to investigate the individual competency of Native Americans and the removal of their restrictions. He believes that many intelligent Native Americans are capable of handling their own affairs and should no longer be considered restricted by the government. However, he also recognizes the need for a competency board to assess the qualifications of individual Native Americans before removing restrictions. He suggests that members of the commission should be selected from the tribes themselves and that the findings of the commission should be final, with the Secretary of the Interior issuing orders based on their determinations. Mr. Schwabe seeks input and suggestions from Mr. F. W. Files, an attorney with experience working with Native Americans, on the proposed bill."]](https://jones-2.s3.amazonaws.com/George%20B.%20Schwabe%20Collection%20/CAC_CC_047_1_0000_0000_0000-79th%20Congress,%201945-1947/CAC_CC_047_1_5_55_0000-Indian%20Claims%20Commission,%201945-1946/Thumbnails/CAC_CC_047_1_5_55_0011_thumbnail.jpg "Proposal for Competency Commission for Indian Affairs")
