- Description:
- The letter is from J.D. Lewis, Chairman of the Carter County Democratic Central Committee, to Senator A.S. Monroney. Lewis praises Monroney's recent speech at an event in Oklahoma City and expresses his support for Overton James to be appointed as Chief of the Chickasaws, rather than Hugh Maytubby. Lewis believes James is a better candidate due to his youth and modern ideas. Lewis also mentions introducing General Mike Massad to Chief Belvin and James.
