![["The document is from U.S. Senator Henry Bellmon to Jack Ellison, Director of the Bureau of Indian Affairs Muskogee Area office, regarding Timmie Sullivan, a Creek Indian who has been excluded from a per capita payment from the Creek Tribe. The document also mentions an issue regarding a will that Timmie's father had drawn up in 1919 or 1920, which allegedly transferred properties to Timmie but was not found at the time of his father's death. Bellmon requests Ellison's assistance in resolving these issues. The document also includes information about Timmie Sullivan's birth record, census records, and baptismal record."]](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_0019_thumbnail.jpg "Title: Inquiry Regarding Per Capita Payment and Property Transfer Issues")
![["LaDonna Harris, on behalf of the AIO Action Council, expresses gratitude for the $5,000 grant received for the Menominee legislation. They are in need of additional funds to represent American Indians on various issues and are unable to receive tax-exempt funds. The organization lobbies on legislative issues, publishes a Legislative Alert, and wants to move into voter registration. Funds are urgently needed for travel expenses for American Indians to testify before Congressional committees. The focus is on restoring government services and tribal recognition for the Menominee Indians of Wisconsin. Harris expresses gratitude for past support and looks forward to continued collaboration."]](https://jones-2.s3.amazonaws.com/Fred%20R.%20Harris%20Collection/CAC_CC_026_3_282_3_0000-LaDonna%20Harris,%20Americans%20for%20Indian%20Opportunity%20(AIO),%201966-1976/Thumbnails/CAC_CC_026_3_282_3_0017_thumbnail.jpg "Letter from AIO Action Council Seeking Additional Funding for Advocacy and Representation of American Indians")

![["The letter from Captain Fred M. Nussbaum expresses disapproval of the activities of the AIM group, particularly their actions in Washington and at Wounded Knee. Nussbaum is concerned about the potential for further violence in Pawnee, Oklahoma, but is working to prevent it. Nussbaum criticizes the government for being soft on the group's actions and urges for stronger action to be taken to stop their lawlessness. Nussbaum, as an American Indian, is ashamed of the lawless acts being carried out in the name of Indian people and expresses support for elected tribal leaders."]](https://jones-2.s3.amazonaws.com/John%20N.%20Happy%20Camp%20Collection/CAC_CC_009_2_67_7_0000-Committee%20on%20Interior%20and%20Insular%20Affairs%20Wounded%20Knee,%201972-1974/Thumbnails/CAC_CC_009_2_67_7_0009_thumbnail.jpg "\"Correspondence Regarding the American Indian Movement's Activities and Ensuing Government Response in 1973\"")
