The letter is from Mr. Turner to Congressman Albert inquiring about the disposition of coal and asphalt lands belonging to the Choctaw and Chickasaw tribes. The response acknowledges receipt of the letter and explains that efforts were made to push through an appropriation bill for the lands, but it was not successful in the last Congress. The response mentions that a request for the appropriation will come up with the Interior Department bill next year and expresses hope that the item will be included in the appropriation bill during the next session.
