Description
This letter, dated December 17, 1952, from Lt. Col. Reginald J. B. Page of the United States (US) Army Corp of Engineers, Garrison District, to US Senator William Langer, makes reference to Langer's letter of December 10, in which Langer enclosed a copy of a resolution prepared by the McKenzie Country, ND Board of Commissioners, in which the Commissioners asked that a proposed road connecting the Fort Berthold Reservation to Highway no. 23 be constructed at federal expense.
In his reply, Page explains that, because the proposed road lies outside the boundaries of the reservation, he has no funding or authority to include such a road in the Fort Berthold road construction project.
