The Honorable Robert List

Dear Governor List:
On behalf of the Indian Commission, I am pleased to
present to you our revised and expanded directory for
1982-83.
The truest measure of the well-being and functioning
of a free society is found in the amount of information
available to its citizens.
We are especially satisfied with the amount of infor-
mation to be found in our directory and sincerely hope
that it will assist greatly all persons with interests
in Indian affairs to communicate with both Nevada Indians
and each other.
We appreciate the cooperation of all those who helped
us in the preparation of this work and look forward to
future editions.
Truly,
NEVADA INDIAN COMMISSION
