![["The document proposes the usage of Cherokee judgment funds from the Indian Claims Commission to be set aside in an interest-bearing account, with a per-capita payment made to living original allottees. The interest from the funds would be used to finance a comprehensive tribal economic program to improve the standard of living for Cherokees. The document also outlines a proposed Tribal Lending Program and other development initiatives such as industrial development, healthcare, education, and cooperative programs.
