![["The document from Mr. Crowell to Congressman Page Belcher addresses a disagreement with the Bureau of Indian Affairs regarding the use of printed forms for oil and gas leases on Indian lands. Mr. Crowell argues that the regulations do not specifically require the use of Government printed forms and points out that other offices have accepted forms printed by a private printer. The Bureau explains that using Government printed forms is encouraged for efficiency and cost reasons, but not mandatory. The Bureau states that Bureau personnel are required to scrutinize non-Government printed forms, which can be time-consuming. Ultimately, the Bureau emphasizes the importance of using Government printed forms when feasible for efficiency and cost-effectiveness."]](https://jones-2.s3.amazonaws.com/Page%20H.%20Belcher%20Collection,%201951-1972/85th%20Congress-CAC_CC_004_4_0000_0000_0000/CAC_CC_004_4_30_27B_0000-Interior%20-%20Departmental%20-%20Bureau%20of%20Indian%20Affairs,%201957-1958/Thumbnails/CAC_CC_004_4_30_27B_0013_thumbnail.jpg "Correspondence Regarding the Use of Government vs. Privately Printed Forms in the Bureau of Indian Affairs")
