Description
These three letters dated March 3, 1952, from United States (US) Senator William Langer to US Senator Milton Young, US Representative Usher Burdick, and US Representative Fred Aandahl are identical except for the addressees. The letters refer to a letter, dated March 3, 1952, Langer has received from Van Hook, North Dakota resident A. N. Winge. Langer explains that Winge “feels that the Army Engineers have not treated her fairly and she suggests we call a halt to the finishing of the dam until a settlement is made.” Langer writes that he has contacted the Chief of Engineers, who has agreed to contact Winge to see “what can be done to help her.” All three letters include the handwritten annotation “Garrison Dam.”
