![["The Anadarko Chamber of Commerce is requesting help from Congressman Belcher regarding the possible transfer of employees from the Anadarko area Indian office to a consolidation site. They argue that this move would have a detrimental economic impact on the community and that retrenchment within the departments could allow them to operate efficiently without the need for personnel movement. They emphasize the importance of serving the Indian population in western Oklahoma and express their concern over the proposed changes. Congressman Belcher acknowledges their concerns and assures them that he will discuss the matter with Bureau of Indian Affairs officials before a final decision is reached."]](https://jones-2.s3.amazonaws.com/Page%20H.%20Belcher%20Collection,%201951-1972/85th%20Congress-CAC_CC_004_4_0000_0000_0000/CAC_CC_004_4_30_27B_0000-Interior%20-%20Departmental%20-%20Bureau%20of%20Indian%20Affairs,%201957-1958/Thumbnails/CAC_CC_004_4_30_27B_0015_thumbnail.jpg "Correspondence Between Anadarko Chamber of Commerce and Congressman Belcher Regarding Potential Employee Transfer")
