 Item — Box: 7, Folder: Unknown
Identifier: CAC_CC_047_1_7_20_0020
A letter from a veterans' group in Vinita, Oklahoma, urges Congressman George B. Schwabe to use his influence to bring three bills benefiting veterans out of committee. The bills include providing adjusted service pay for World War II veterans, granting pensions to World War I veterans, and allowing insurance credits for military service under the Social Security Act. Congressman Schwabe responds that he is not on the committees handling these bills, but will consider them if they are brought before the House for consideration. He acknowledges the importance of the bills to veterans but suggests that they may not be acted upon soon due to other legislative priorities.
