- Description:
- Senator Fred R. Harris received a letter from Ms. Eileen Shanahan expressing her concern for the American Indian and her interest in aiding them. Senator Harris reached out to the Bureau of Indian Affairs for information on summer programs for Ms. Shanahan, but was informed that there were no temporary federal employment opportunities available. Instead, Ms. Shanahan was advised to contact Area Offices or eleemosynary organizations for potential opportunities to assist Indians. Senator Harris assured Ms. Shanahan that he would continue to look for suitable programs for her.
