![["Nicey Evans of Bixby, Oklahoma wrote to Congressman Page Belcher inquiring about the payment of the Loyal Creek judgment fund and the equalization of allotment claims for Creek Indians. Congressman Belcher forwarded the letter to the U.S. Department of Interior, which explained that funds have been allocated for the payment, but administrative costs need to be covered before individual payments can begin. The Department also provided information on the history of equalization payments for Creek allotments and stated that specific legislation may be needed for the completion of these claims."]](https://jones-2.s3.amazonaws.com/Page%20H.%20Belcher%20Collection,%201951-1972/83rd%20Congress-CAC_CC_004_2_0000_0000_0000/CAC_CC_004_2_12_18_0000-Indian%20Affairs%20-%20General.,%201952-1953/Thumbnails/CAC_CC_004_2_12_18_0015_thumbnail.jpg "Loyal Creek Indian Funds Distribution: Correspondence between Nicey Evans and Congressman Page Belcher")

![["The document addresses Mr. Sharp's complaints about the Mutual Help program, stating that he is not being financially victimized but is actually benefiting from the heavy Federal subsidies provided. It explains that the program allows low-income Indian families to afford homeownership opportunities that they would not be able to afford on their own. The document encourages Mr. Sharp to contact Mr. Froman for further clarification and assistance, and emphasizes that the program is beneficial for low-income Indian families."]](https://jones-2.s3.amazonaws.com/Dewey%20F.%20Bartlett%20Collection/Subject,%201946-1978-CAC_CC_003_2_0000_0000_0000/CAC_CC_003_2_33_1_0000-Indian%20Affairs,%20Housing,%201973/Thumbnails/CAC_CC_003_2_33_1_0033_thumbnail.jpg "Clarifying the Benefits of the Mutual Help Program for Low-Income Indian Families")
