![["The Housing Authority of the Comanche Indian Tribe of Oklahoma is disappointed with the allocation of housing units from the Department of Housing & Urban Development. They feel that the allocation is not realistic and unfair. They have also faced challenges with qualifying families for their housing program. The Authority believes they have been penalized for their management performance and feel that the HUD Area Office does not differentiate between Indian Housing Authorities. The Commissioner's term will expire in February 1975."]](https://jones-2.s3.amazonaws.com/Dewey%20F.%20Bartlett%20Collection/Subject,%201946-1978-CAC_CC_003_2_0000_0000_0000/CAC_CC_003_2_32_20_0000-Indian%20Affairs,%20Housing,%201973%20Mar.%20-%201978%20Oct.,%201973-1978/Thumbnails/CAC_CC_003_2_32_20_0021_thumbnail.jpg "1975 Letter from the Housing Authority of the Comanche Indian Tribe of Oklahoma to HUD Regarding Unit Allocation Discrepancies")
