Description

This letter, dated May 7, 1948, from Senator William Langer to Three Affiliated Tribes member Martin Cross thanks Cross for the two resolutions passed by the Claims Legislative Council. One resolution proposes that no action be taken on the proposed contract between the United States and the Fort Berthold Reservation and the other is related to the the contract drafted by the War Department. These resolutions are likely in connection with the construction of the Garrison Dam, but they were not enclosed in this document. A handwritten note on the letter says, "See Indians."
