- Description:
- The document is informing Mr. Hoffman about a bill, H. R. 2294, which passed the House of Representatives and is now before the Senate Committee on Indian Affairs. The bill confers exclusive jurisdiction on the Secretary of the Interior for determining heirship of deceased intestate Indians with restricted property. The Five Civilized Tribes and Osage Indians of Oklahoma are exempt from the bill. Mr. Schwabe asks Mr. Hoffman to review the bill and let him know if he has any objections, suggesting he contact Senators Elmer Thomas and E. H. Moore if necessary. Mr. Schwabe requests a response before it is too late to address the issue with the Senators.
