Mr. R. F. Borden, Jr. writes to George M. Schwabe expressing concern about the pending Pepper Bill and how it would negatively impact small business, specifically restaurants. Borden argues that the bill would lead to closures and is not practical for industries like restaurants that require long hours and cannot operate with a 40-hour work week. Schwabe responds agreeing with Borden's views and criticizing the New Deal crowd for not caring about small businesses. Schwabe pledges to continue fighting against controlled economy measures.
