OF THE & L UNITED STATES DEPARTMENT OF THE INTERIOR OFFICE OF THE SECRETARY 3, 18.99 WASHINGTON 25, D. C. AUG 23 1951 My dear Mr. President: This will acknowledge your memorandum of August 16, 1951, concerning the law enforcement, housing, conservation, and agricul- tural situation in Alaska. Apropos of our conversation, I plan to go to the Jackson Hole country for a few days, and will be back in Washington Thursday evening or Friday morning of next week. Immediately upon my return I will review the situation with the Attorney General and the Secre- tary of Agriculture. We are aware of these problems, and as I told you over the phone, I had someone in Alaska looking into the situation for me. I am looking forward to discussing it with you upon my return. Sincerely yours, ARCHIVES "NATIONAL RECORDS SERVICE" Oscar L. Chapman Secretary of the Interior The President The White House
