Federal Bill To Settle Catawba Claim Nears
A $50 million settlement for the Catawba Indians appears close, with a 144000 acre land claim to be settled by a federal bill introduced by US Rep. Butler Derrick and to be jointly sponsored in the Senate by Sens. Thurmond and Hollings. The plan requires 32 million from the federal government and involves state and local contributions with ongoing negotiations and committee hurdles.
