![["The document from Marie L. Wadley to Page Belcher encloses resolutions adopted by The Inter-Tribal Council of the Five Civilized Tribes regarding expanding and improving adult educational programs for reservation Indians and providing economic assistance through the establishment of industries near Indian reservations. Belcher acknowledges the resolutions and assures careful consideration of the matters. The resolutions urge Congress to increase funding for vocational training and provide legislative assistance for economic development on or near reservations.

![["The Taos Pueblo Council is advocating for the restoration of the Blue Lake Area, which was seized unjustly by the Federal Government. They support H.R. 471, which would place 48,000 acres of the area in trust for their people and maintain it as a wilderness. They oppose Senator Anderson's proposal, which would reduce the protected wilderness area to 4,600 acres and allow commercial harvesting of timber. They argue that the entire Rio Pueblo watershed holds religious significance for their tribe and should be protected."]](https://jones-2.s3.amazonaws.com/John%20N.%20Happy%20Camp%20Collection/CAC_CC_009_2_67_11_0000-Committee%20on%20Interior%20and%20Insular%20Affairs%20Pueblo%20Del%20Taos%20Indians,%201967-1969/Thumbnails/CAC_CC_009_2_67_11_0005_thumbnail.jpg "\"Struggle for Blue Lake: The Taos Pueblo Council's Fight for Sacred Land\"")
