![["The document to the editor expresses frustration with the way tribal affairs are being conducted for the Creek Tribe, with decisions being made by leaders not representative of the Creek Indians themselves. The writer criticizes the lack of tribal council approval for proposals, the limited authority of the Advisory Committee, and the neglect of poverty areas within the Creek Nation. The document also questions the allocation of funds, specifically mentioning a discrepancy in a recent payment to Creek Indians in Alabama. The writer calls for transparency in tribal affairs and vows to continue advocating for the rights and well-being of the Creek people."]](https://jones-2.s3.amazonaws.com/Dewey%20F.%20Bartlett%20Collection/Subject,%201946-1978-CAC_CC_003_2_0000_0000_0000/CAC_CC_003_2_28_0000-Indian%20Affairs,%20Creek%20Nation,%201971%20Sept.%20-%201978%20June.,%201971-1978/Thumbnails/CAC_CC_003_2_30_28_0002_thumbnail.jpg "Injustice and Activism: A Letter from Frances Wilson")

![["The document is a response to Senator Bartlett's inquiry about bills incurred by Dolores Whiteman at the Visiting Nurse Association in Oklahoma City. It states that Mrs. Whiteman was initially seen at Clinton Indian Hospital and then referred to Talihina State Hospital for tuberculosis treatment. The records show that she was an inpatient at Talihina State Hospital from September 4, 1973 to March 29, 1974. The document clarifies that the responsibility for payment of visits to the Visiting Nurse Association was with the Welfare Department, as they referred Mrs. Whiteman to the agency. The Clinton Service Unit denies responsibility for payment as they were not involved in the referral. Mrs. Whiteman has since returned to Clinton Indian Hospital for treatment.
