Description
In this letter, dated April 21, 1949, from T. W. Strieter to United States Senator William Langer, Strieter asks Langer for his help in preventing the execution of convicted Nazi war criminal Martin Sandberger. Strieter mentions previous letters he has sent to Langer, remarking that it has been several weeks since he sent them and Langer has still not replied. Strieter writes that he is enclosing 11 affidavits from men opposing Sandberger's death sentence and urges Langer to use his position and experience to secure a fair hearing or a review of the case before the Supreme Court.
The 11 affidavits mentioned as being enclosed were not found with this letter in Langer's papers.
