![["Officials from Oklahoma Lanham Act Schools and the State Department of Education met to discuss the financial outlook for schools in National Defense Areas for the 1946-47 school year. Despite the displacement of children due to national defense activities, the Federal Works Agency announced they would not seek further appropriations for school assistance. This decision poses challenges for schools in defense areas, as they may not be able to provide adequate education programs without federal assistance. School leaders in defense areas acknowledge the need for federal assistance but are reluctant to rely on it permanently."]](https://jones-2.s3.amazonaws.com/George%20B.%20Schwabe%20Collection%20/CAC_CC_047_1_0000_0000_0000-79th%20Congress,%201945-1947/CAC_CC_047_1_5_5_0000-Education,%201945-1946/thumbnails/CAC_CC_047_1_5_5_0004_thumbnail.jpg "Funding Challenges for Oklahoma National Defense Area Schools in 1946-47: A Retrospective Analysis")

![["Mr. Joseph Bruner, President of the American Indian Federation, wrote a letter to Congressman George B. Schwabe expressing the Federation's disagreement with the Indian Claims Commission Bill introduced by Representative Stigler. The Federation believes the bill does not fulfill the Republican party's national platform pledges of 1940 and 1944 regarding Indian claims. They urge Congressman Schwabe to introduce a bill that will lead to an immediate settlement of all Indian claims. Congressman Schwabe responds, expressing his willingness to work with the Indian leaders to determine the best course of action and requesting their input on what kind of bill they would like to see introduced.
