- Description:
- The text is a series of letters discussing the Osage oil well allowable and the decision to follow the allowable fixed by the Oklahoma Corporation Commission. The Bureau of Indian Affairs granted the request of the Osage Tribal Council for an increase in the allowable, but later decided to follow the Commission's decision after further study. The letters express disappointment in the Chairman of the Corporation Commission for reversing his previous position and emphasize the need for cooperation between federal and state agencies to protect the interests of the Indians.
