The letter is from Robert Goombi to Hon. Page Belcher, expressing opposition to the proposed transfer of the Indian Service Extension Department to the State Extension Service. Goombi lists various reasons why the transfer would bring hardship to the Indian community, highlighting the valuable services provided by the Indian Extension Service personnel. He also requests opposition to letting contracts on Indian Service Road projects, as it would result in many Indian men losing employment opportunities. Goombi urges Belcher to advocate for the expansion and acceleration of road construction and maintenance programs to benefit the Indian community.
