Correspondence Regarding the Sale of Indian Lands in 19371937-07-17unknownhttp://rightsstatements.org/vocab/NKC/1.0/enghttp://congressarchives.org/record/CAC_CC_053_12_10_63_0012The letter is from Wyatt Chipley to Honorable Elmer Thomas, expressing concern about the sale of Indian lands and timber in Oklahoma. Chipley believes that the government has neglected the timber on the land and allowed it to be removed for commercial purposes. He requests that the sale be postponed until an investigation is conducted and the mineral rights are reserved. Senator Thomas assures Chipley that he will do what he can to help and cooperate with Chief Durant of the Choctaw Tribe.
