![["The document from Mr. Elias T. McIntosh to Congressman Carl Albert expresses the need for a per capita payment or settlement for the Choctaw Indians. Congressman Albert responds by informing McIntosh that the claims of the Choctaws have been completed and there is currently no pending payment for them. He also mentions that the Creeks east of the Mississippi River recently received an award. McIntosh expresses disappointment in the response, stating that the Choctaw tribe is in need of a payment or settlement."]](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_33_27_0000-Interior%20-%20Bureau%20of%20Indian%20Affairs%20-%20Choctaw,%201959/Thumbnails/CAC_CC_001_4_33_27_0007_thumbnail.jpg "Update on Choctaw and Chickasaw Payment Status")
