Description
This letter dated March 10, 1952, from United States (US) Senator William Langer to Fort Berthold tribal member James Black Dog, is a reply to an earlier letter from Black Dog in which Black Dog requests help with getting the US Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) to conduct an investigation of the tribes' financial dealings. Langer includes in his reply a report he has received from the US Bureau of Indian Affairs Commissioner Dillon S. Myer which Myer gives a detailed explanation for why such an investigation would not be justified.
