The Delawares' Right to Share in a $9.1 Million Judgment, 1972-09-28
Scope and Contents
The text discusses the proposed amendment to include Delawares not previously included in legislation, suggesting that those over 65 years old should receive 100% of the per-capita payment, and that applications from those who have already received payments from different tribes should be denied. It also states that the Department of the Interior stands to gain much more than the Delawares and should be responsible for the expense of litigation.
