![["The document is a request from Dewey Bartlett, a United States Senator, to Dr. Ray Latham, Director of Indian Projects, for favorable consideration of a proposal submitted by the Creek Nation of Oklahoma for an alcohol treatment and guidance program for eight counties in Oklahoma. The proposal aims to serve approximately 20,000 Indian people, with 2,000 to 3,000 directly in need of the services. The Creek Nation does not currently have an alcohol treatment program, and the project is seeking funding of $100,000 to employ six or seven professional staff members. Claude A.
