- Description:
- Mrs. Alma Chapman inquired about her eligibility on two Indian rolls at the same time. The Bureau of Indian Affairs responded stating that eligibility for one roll does not affect eligibility for another, and explained the specific criteria for enrollment in the Otoe and Missouria judgment fund. The Bureau also addressed concerns about tribal council representation and potential resolution regarding eligibility for tribal claims. Mrs. Chapman requested clarification from Congressman Page Belcher on the matter.
