Scope and Contents

The letter is a formal request from the Cheyenne-Arapaho Tribes of Oklahoma to the Commissioner of Indian Affairs to transfer Superintendent Allen Quetone from the Concho Agency. The letter outlines various incidents and issues with Mr. Quetone, including physical confrontations with Business Committee members, excessive absences from the office, failure to delegate authority, refusal to provide technical assistance, and low morale among Bureau personnel. The tribes believe that the situation is irreconcilable and not in the best interests of the members, and they request immediate action on their request for Mr. Quetone's transfer.
