Description
This letter, dated October 6, 1952, from Irene Martin Edwards on behalf of United States (US) Senator William Langer to Evelyn B. Mendez of Elbowoods North Dakota on the Fort Berthold Reservation, makes reference to Mendez's letter of September 26, which, in turn, refers to previous correspondence regarding the fact that Mendez, on behalf of her children, did not received the $1000 per capita payment made to enrolled members of the Forth Berthold Reservation. Edwards writes that Langer's staff is again taking the matter up with "the authorities" in Langer's name, and that, as soon as a reply is available, Mendez will hear from Langer's staff again.
