The two letters address the issue of selective service and the need for immediate action in regards to demobilization and sharing the burden of occupation duties among servicemen. The first letter, from George B. Schwabe, M.C., acknowledges the challenges faced in passing legislation due to the influence of military authorities and the New Deal program. The second letter, from Cpl. Charley J. Simon, emphasizes the urgency of the situation and calls for immediate action to address the lack of plans for demobilization and sharing of responsibilities.
