Powers, 305 U.S. 527 (1939) recognized as distinct individual rights, separate from water rights possessed by the Crow Tribe – be awarded to the Crow Tribe in negotiations between the United States, the tribe, and the State of Montana?Further, do the Montana Courts have jurisdiction to decide these questions of federal law related to allottees’ rights?
