![["Mrs. Phoebe Sewell wrote to Congressman Carl Albert inquiring about payments to the Choctaw and Chickasaw Indians for coal and asphalt lands sold to the government. Congressman Albert responded that payments are anticipated to be made that year, with enrolled members receiving around $300 or more. He advised enrolled members to update their mailing address with the Five Civilized Tribes Agency in Muskogee, Oklahoma to avoid delays in receiving their checks. He also mentioned that heirs of deceased members will receive their share based on proof of heirship notices. Mrs. Sewell expressed gratitude for the information and mentioned using the money to buy a little home."]](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_6_78_0000-(22)%20Interior%20-%20Bureau%20of%20Indian%20Affairs%20Choctaw%20and%20Chickasaw%20Indians,%201949/Thumbnails/CAC_CC_001_4_6_78_0009_thumbnail.jpg "Payment Updates for Choctaw and Chickasaw Coal and Asphalt Land Sales")

![["The writer discusses the living conditions and moral issues faced by Native Americans, particularly the Choctaws, prior to and after the U.S. government's involvement. The writer believes that the government's efforts to provide relief and rehabilitation may have hindered the independence and progress of the Native Americans. The writer also disagrees with some statements made by Angie Debo regarding the tribes' farming abilities and moral behavior. Overall, the writer emphasizes the importance of individualism, independence, and good personnel in addressing the needs of Native American communities."]](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_13_74_0000-Interior%20Choctaw%20Chief%20Election%20Constituent%20Concern%20with%20Method%20of%20Selection%201952/Thumbnails/CAC_CC_001_4_13_74_0018_thumbnail.jpg "Reflections on Indigenous American Living Conditions and Moral Standards: A Rebuttal to Generalizations")
