Seek Date For Seneca Audit
Seneca Nation president Cornelius V. Seneca wrote to Greenwood signaling willingness to submit to an audit. The letter claims three years of complete financial statements were filed with the bureau and proposes ending the review dating back to 1945 to obtain a full financial picture. Greenwood says a good checkup on the last three years’ records suffices. Under 1950 law, tribal income from land leases must go to the tribal treasury for per capita distribution, with up to 5000 dollars set aside for tribal expenses. O Neill argues the Senecas have other income sources from which payments can be made.

Banks have more funds to lend, lowering rates, and both businesses and individuals have increased borrowing. Authorities hope easier credit will revive expansion and bolster the economy while higher living costs, especially for food and services, dampen consumer buying.
