An Urgent Plea for Action: Corruption and Foreign Policy in Washington, 1951-04-22
The letter is from George B. Schwabe, a member of the House of Representatives, responding to a letter from Ernest C. Pohl expressing concerns about corruption in government, the handling of foreign and domestic problems by President Truman and Dean Acheson, and the dismissal of General MacArthur. Schwabe agrees with Pohl's concerns and criticizes Truman and Acheson for their socialist tendencies and their detrimental influence on the country. Schwabe also questions the loyalty of certain officials and urges for the removal of subversive elements from the government.
