![["Dosel Realty Agency in Miami, Oklahoma, informs Mr. Harold Kesler that there is no record of land being allocated to Charles Nitzschke or Chi-Cin-Noha. The agency also states that the Miami Indians of Oklahoma do not own any land in a restricted status in Oklahoma. Additionally, Kiowa Indian Services Inc. requests the tribal chairmen of the Kiowa, Comanche, and Apache tribes to investigate the drug and narcotics situation at Fort Sill Indian School and to address the issue with the Anadarko Area Office. They believe that marijuana is being smoked by students on campus and other drugs may be brought in from outside sources. Copies of this request have been sent to various government officials for further action."]](https://jones-2.s3.amazonaws.com/Dewey%20F.%20Bartlett%20Collection/Subject,%201946-1978-CAC_CC_003_2_0000_0000_0000/CAC_CC_003_2_31_22_0000-Indians%20Affairs,%20Elbert,%20Hazel/Thumbnails/CAC_CC_003_2_31_22_0030_thumbnail.jpg "Urgent Request for Investigation into Drug Situation at Fort Sill Indian School")

The Housing Authority believes HUD should take financial responsibility for repairs, while local HUD officials claim it is due to inadequate maintenance. Efforts to resolve the issue with HUD have been met with delays, causing frustration for the Housing Authority and tenants living in deteriorating conditions. Assistant Secretary Simons is holding up the recommendations for repairs, and a phone call from DFB to him is suggested to expedite the process."]](https://jones-2.s3.amazonaws.com/Dewey%20F.%20Bartlett%20Collection/Subject,%201946-1978-CAC_CC_003_2_0000_0000_0000/CAC_CC_003_2_36_10_0000-Indian%20Affairs,%20Senate%20Committee%20Memos,%201973%20Nov.%20-%201978%20June.,%201973-1978%20-%20NEW/thumbnails/CAC_CC_003_2_36_10_0019_thumbnail.jpg "Dispute Over Responsibility for Deteriorating Comanche Tribal Housing Units")
