![["The document discusses the budget cuts and staff reductions at the Talihina hospital in Oklahoma due to a deficit in funding for Indian health services. The author, Rex, suggests two alternatives to address the issue: restoring the cut funds through a supplemental appropriations bill or reallocating more money to the Oklahoma area to save some of the positions at Talihina. Senator Monroney is also informed of the situation."]](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_27_26b_0000%20--%20Health,%20Education%20and%20Welfare%20-%20Public%20Health%20Service%20-%20Talihina%20Indian%20Hospital,%201957/Thumbnails/CAC_CC_001_4_27_26b_0017_thumbnail.jpg "Budget Cuts and Job Losses: The Fight for Funding in Indian Health Care")

![["The Bureau of Indian Affairs in Washington, D.C. informed Honorable Carl Albert that federal funds cannot be used to establish a Choctaw Museum in the Old Tribal Council House. They mention that there are other museums that the Bureau has participated in, but they do not involve Indian tribes. The Bureau suggests that the Choctaw tribe should seek financial contributions from individuals or private institutions to establish the museum. They also mention that the same applies to the Chickasaws and their Council House in Tishomingo."]](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_30_66_0000%20--%20%20Interior%20-%20Bureau%20of%20Indian%20Affairs%20-%20Choctaw,%201958/Thumbnails/CAC_CC_001_4_30_66_0013_thumbnail.jpg "Federal Funds for Choctaw Museum: A Response from Indian Affairs")
