![["The Cherokees, Choctaws, and Chickasaws are in a dispute over ownership of the Arkansas River bed. After two months of disagreement, the tribes have reached a compromise on procedural issues, including a minor change in the bill's wording. The bill, introduced by Representative Steed, has been delayed due to opposition from the Cherokees. The tribes claim ownership of the northern half of the Arkansas River bed, and the U.S. Supreme Court has ruled in favor of the tribes. The state of Oklahoma has appealed this ruling. The Choctaws and Chickasaws are pushing for quick passage of a bill allowing a lawsuit between the tribes to resolve the issue."]](https://jones-2.s3.amazonaws.com/Carl%20Albert%20Collection,%201947-1977/Departmental,%201945-1976%20(CAC_CC_001_4_0000_0000)/CAC_CC_001_4_100_24_0000%20--%20Interior%20-%20Bureau%20of%20Indian%20Affairs%20-%20Arkansas%20Riverbed,%201972/Thumbnails/CAC_CC_001_4_100_24_0002_thumbnail.jpg "Settlement Progress in Arkansas River Dispute")

![["Choctaw Chief Harry J. W. Belvin is facing criticism from some Choctaw Indians who accuse him of not allowing them a voice in tribal affairs and not being transparent about tribal finances. Belvin denies any wrongdoing and claims that some requests for information are beyond his power. The protesting group has initiated a petition drive calling for Belvin's removal, citing issues such as lack of voting rights, control of tribal money and lands, and questionable election practices. Belvin defends his actions, stating that the tribe's business is under governmental control and that he is not required to provide detailed reports to tribal members.
