- Description:
- The document discusses a bill that authorizes the separation of interests between the Hopi and Navajo tribes in certain lands set aside in 1882. It confirms exclusive rights for the Hopi tribe in certain lands within the Navajo Reservation. The bill aims to improve the conditions on both reservations and establish a commission for settlement and economic development. It also emphasizes the need for fair treatment of both tribes and the importance of long-term planning for the reservations' development.
