The Anadarko Chamber of Commerce wrote a letter to Congressman Page Belcher expressing concern about the potential transfer of 25-30 employees from the Anadarko Indian Area office. They emphasized the economic impact this would have on the community and argued that retrenchment within the Indian service departments could operate efficiently without the need for personnel movement. They requested Congressman Belcher's assistance in preventing the transfer and highlighted the community's strong support for the Indian office. Congressman Belcher acknowledged the letter and informed them that a survey was being conducted, with a decision to be made after all reports were received.
