““It was the function of the Department of the Interior to approve or disapprove decedent’s will. This having been done, appellant can properly seek to elect against the will under the provisions of Oklahoma law if she can meet the federal requirements of section 7.

Mashunkashey, 191 Okl. 501 , 134 P.2d 976 (1942); In re Smith’s Estate, 188 Okl. 158 , 107 P.2d 188 (1940); In re Martin’s Estate, 183 Okl. 177 , 80 P.2d 561 (1938); see also Tiger v.
