The Osage Tribe is in need of financial assistance and Chief Lookout believes the passage of the bill is justified. Congressman Cochran, however, opposes the bill and does not agree to its passage, stating that he cannot support it. Harry Kohpay, Assistant Chief of the Osage Indians, responds to Cochran's opposition by explaining the history and importance of the fund to the Osage Tribe, and requests a meeting with Cochran to discuss the matter further."]](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_45_0000-Indian%20Affairs,%201935-1939/Thumbnails/CAC_CC_047_1_5_45_0009_thumbnail.jpg "Appeal for Passage of Osage Civilization Fund Bill $670")
