![["The document discusses the findings of fact in Case B-38 in the Court of Claims regarding a treaty signed with the Osage Nation in 1865. The Osage chiefs who signed the treaty were full-blood blanket Indians who did not speak English, and the negotiations were conducted through interpreters. The Osages believed the \"civilization fund\" created by the treaty would benefit only their tribe, but the funds were used for the benefit of other tribes as well. The Osages protested against this interpretation and sought relief through Congress. Ultimately, only a small portion of the funds were used for the Osage tribe, and the rest was returned to the Treasury."]](https://jones-2.s3.amazonaws.com/George%20B.%20Schwabe%20Collection%20/CAC_CC_047_1_0000_0000_0000-79th%20Congress,%201945-1947/CAC_CC_047_1_5_47_0000-Indian%20Affairs,%201935-1939/Thumbnails/CAC_CC_047_1_5_47_0005_thumbnail.jpg "The Osage Treaty of 1865: Injustice and Discontent")
![["The document is addressing concerns about a proposed Memorial Plaza in St. Louis, Missouri, and why it should not be approved. The reasons include opposition from the City Plan Commission, fraudulent bond issues, lack of funds for construction, legal disputes, existing memorials to Thomas Jefferson, potential displacement of industry and workers, and a four-year delay in progress. The document urges the recipient to consider these reasons and not support the project."]](https://jones-2.s3.amazonaws.com/George%20B.%20Schwabe%20Collection%20/CAC_CC_047_1_0000_0000_0000-79th%20Congress,%201945-1947/CAC_CC_047_1_5_47_0000-Indian%20Affairs,%201935-1939/Thumbnails/CAC_CC_047_1_5_47_0004_thumbnail.jpg "Concerns Regarding Jefferson Memorial Plaza Funding")

![["The document is from K.B. Cornell, a public accountant, to Congressman George B. Schwabe regarding H.R. 1631, a bill concerning lands near El Reno, Oklahoma.

He also mentions his professional field in tax accounting and praises Schwabe's ideas on taxation preferences. Cornell leaves the matter to Schwabe's judgement and expresses frustration over recent political events."]](https://jones-2.s3.amazonaws.com/George%20B.%20Schwabe%20Collection%20/82nd%20Congress,%201951-1953-CAC_CC_047_3_0000_0000_0000/CAC_CC_047_3_27_55_0000-Indians,%201951/Thumbnails/CAC_CC_047_3_27_55_0003_thumbnail.jpg "Advocating for Justice: A Letter to Congressman George B.
