Letter to Congressman George Schwabe Regarding Veterans' Agricultural Training Program, 1945-01-01 - 1946-12-31
The letter is from Charles A. Marrs, Superintendent of Pawhuska Public Schools, to Congressman George Schwabe, expressing concern about the Veterans "On-The-Job Training Program" and its impact on farm veterans in Osage County, Oklahoma. Marrs explains that the income ceiling for veterans in training is unfair, as farm incomes fluctuate throughout the year. He also argues that the ceiling on earnings hinders the effectiveness of the training program in agriculture. Marrs urges Schwabe to defend the rights of veterans and advocate for changes in Congress.
