Pursuant to the authority contained in section 23 of the Act of August 27, 1954 (68 Stat. 877, as amended; 25 U.S.C. 677v), it is hereby proclaimed that the Federal restrictions on the property of each individual mixed-blood member of the Ute Indian Tribe of the Uintah and Ouray Reservation in Utah having been removed, the Federal trust relationship to such individual is terminated and that effective midnight, August 27, 1961, such individual shall not be entitled to any of the services performed for Indians because of his status as an Indian. All statutes of the United States which affect Indians because of their status as Indians shall no longer be applicable to such member over which supervision has been terminated, and the laws of the several States shall apply to such member in the same manner as they apply to other citizens within their jurisdiction.
