The Tribes claimed that the ceded area was about 10 million acres and that it had a value, at the time of the Treaty, of at least $10,000,000. The Tribes claim ed th a t they received no more than $200,000 in payment under the Treaty and were entitled to recover at least $9,800,000 more from the United States. In 1954, the Court of Claims d ecided th a t th e In d ia n Continued from page 1 Claims Commission should not consider or treat the cession of lands to the Government under Indian Treaties as acknow ledgement by the Government that the Indians ceding that land had title. From March 1958 to August 1968, the Tribes fought to prove exclusive occupancy of the ten million acres upon which the Tribes based the claim. After numerous appeals and rehearings, the Indian Claims Commission awarded the Tribes exclusive occupancy to only 1,605,000 acres and thus closed that phase of the case. Finally, the loss of acreage and claims by the Government fo r o ffse ts a n d T re a ty considerations brought the parties to a com prom ise settlement and to the present figure of $1,225.000. Tribal members voted in 1973 to accept that amount.
