Per Capita Payments for Choctaw Indians

Mr. Askew inquired about land allotments and per capita payments for Choctaw Indians. The Bureau of Indian Affairs stated that no per capita payments were programmed for that year, and provided information on how unenrolled Indians of the Five Civilized Tribes could apply for land allotments. Congressman Carl Albert communicated this information to Mr. Askew and assured him of his assistance.
