Congressman Gassaway is requesting a new or enlarged post office building for Shawnee, Oklahoma, as the current building is outdated and inadequate for the growing population and postal service needs. He provides statistics showing the growth of the office and the demand for additional federal agencies to be housed in the building. He also mentions a pending bill for a Federal District Court in Shawnee, indicating the need for a larger federal building. Various government officials have pledged their support for the project, and it is expected that a deficiency appropriation will be voted to fund the new building in 1937.
