HON. CHARLES CARTER
ASKS RECOMMENDATION
FOR VERY IMPORTANT
INDIAN Ii G|SL ALTON

Congressman Charlie Carter Of this
city has asked the Bureau Of Indian
Affairs at Washington to have includ-
cd in the next years Indian appropri-
alton bill legislation authorizing the
sale of the remainder of the Choc-
taw-Chickasaw coal deposits and for
part of the sanitarium land near
Talihina, Oklahoma. Under bill
formerly drafted by Mr.. Carter and
passed through congress these coal
deposits have been offered for sale
three times and there still remains
remnant unsold Before this resi-
due can again be offered for sale
additional legislation will be neces-
sary and this accounts for the re-
quest being made to have the matter
included in the Indian appropriation
bill. All the property of the Choc-
taws and Chickasaws has been sold
except the remainder Of these coal de-
posits. The money is being distrib-
uted per capita among the members
of the tribes as fast as St accumu-
lates on deferred payments.
The Choctaw sanitarium near Tall
hina had a large tract Of land set
aside for il a great deal more
than is necessary The state of Ok
lahoma desires TO build 4 large
sanitarium in the same neighborhood
and to effect sale of any part OF
this reservation legislation is neces-
sary.
The letter Of Mr. Carter to the
Commissioner of Indian Affairs fol-
lows:
Ardmorc, Oklahoma
October %, 1920
Honorable Cato Sells,
Commissioner of Indian Affairs,
Washington, ID. c.
My Dear Mr. Commissioner:
AS you are aware, il will be neces-
sary to have additional legislation
before the remainder of the coal
deposits in the segregated land Of
the Choctaws and Chickasaws can
be sold. In view of the coming ses-
sion of congress being short one,
we could hardly expect to get results
through any special act. So it would
seem that about the only course left
open would be to place an item in
the Indian Appropriation bill. May l
suggest that you have an item in
cluded authorizing this sale? Since a
portion of the mineral has been sold
successfully and this amendment would
deal with the remnant, l should think
that a short simple provision would
cover the case.
/ think it very important that this
be placed in the estimates by your
bureau for it will assist materially in
the passage Of the. measure.
Another matter which / think you
will agree should perhaps be includ-
ed in the estimates is that Of the
sale of part Of the Choctaw sani-
tarium land near Talihina to the
state Of Oklahoma. If you will see
that these two items are taken care
OF in your estimates 1t will be very
highly appreciated by
Yours sincerely,
CHARLES CARTER.
