Description
This letter, dated April 23, 1946, from United States (US) Senator William Langer to Fort Berthold Indian Agency Superintendent C. H. Beitzel conveys Langer's request for the names and addresses of all enrolled members on Beitzel's books. Langer acknowledges that compiling this list will take time, and offers to pay Beitzel for his time.
Langer goes on to explain that he has been "leading the fight down here for the Indians of Elbowoods to get pay for their land, or land in place of what they take that is just as good, and I would like to get their attitude and suggestions."
