Time Running Out for Indian Claims Commission
The Indian Claims Commission has approved $359 million in claims since 1946 but faces expiration on April 10, 1972 with about half workload left. About 290 claims totaling roughly $160 million remain to be settled, including Seminoles and Turtle Mountain Chippe claims. The panel, extended three times, may need one more five year extension to finish.
