Secretary of the Interior Fred A. Seaton called attention today to the publication of a proposed membership roll of the Wyandotte Indian Tribe of Oklahoma which appeared in the Federal Register of April 6.
The roll was prepared by the tribe under terms of a 1956 congressional law which provides for termination of Federal supervision over the property of the tribe by 1958.
Under the law any person claiming membership in the tribe or an interest in its assets may file with the Secretary an appeal contesting the omission of a name from the roll or the inclusion of one on it. Such appeals must be filed within 60 days after the date of the rolls publication in the Federal Register.
