Description
This telegram dated May 31, 1947, from United States Senator William Langer to the unnamed Superintendent of Indian Agency in Elbowoods, inquires “by what regulation of Indian Bureau are grazing lands being leased.” Langer notes there is strong protest against the system being used. Included with the telegram are two handwritten notes. One handwritten note includes the figure $598.50. The other handwritten note asks what regulation is being used for the land being leased.
