He thanks Mr. Bredin for the information and advice."]](https://jones-2.s3.amazonaws.com/George%20B.%20Schwabe%20Collection%20/82nd%20Congress,%201951-1953-CAC_CC_047_3_0000_0000_0000/CAC_CC_047_3_27_50_0000-Housing,%201951-1952/Thumbnails/CAC_CC_047_3_27_50_0006_thumbnail.jpg "Opposition to Public Housing and Rent Control in Tulsa")

![["The document includes letters from various individuals and organizations expressing their support for or concerns about flood control measures, specifically the construction of the Oolagah Dam in Oklahoma. The documents highlight the importance of proper flood control in the wake of recent devastation in Kansas, Missouri, and Oklahoma, and emphasize the need for careful consideration and study before implementing such measures. The writers advocate for a comprehensive flood control program that includes dredging, straightening rivers, retention dams, levees, dikes, and soil conservation, rather than solely relying on large dam projects. They also address opposition to the dam from certain oil interests and a minority group in Nowata County, stressing the importance of prioritizing the needs and safety of the larger community."]](https://jones-2.s3.amazonaws.com/George%20B.%20Schwabe%20Collection%20/82nd%20Congress,%201951-1953-CAC_CC_047_3_0000_0000_0000/CAC_CC_047_3_27_36_0000-Flood%20Control,%201952/Thumbnails/CAC_CC_047_3_27_36_0009_thumbnail.jpg "Importance of Flood Control Measures in Kansas and Oklahoma")

Sawyer argues against the idea, stating that it would create administrative and foreign relations problems and be a burden on taxpayers. He believes that aid to other countries should be temporary and not permanent, and that it should be carefully and wisely administered. Sawyer emphasizes the importance of existing government departments and expresses his support for the Marshall Plan and Point 4 program."]](https://jones-2.s3.amazonaws.com/George%20B.%20Schwabe%20Collection%20/82nd%20Congress,%201951-1953-CAC_CC_047_3_0000_0000_0000/CAC_CC_047_3_27_43_0000-Foreign%20Aid,%201951/Thumbnails/CAC_CC_047_3_27_43_0002_thumbnail.jpg "Letter from Secretary Sawyer to Senator Connally on Foreign Aid Administration")

![["The document discusses a new law passed by Congress reducing down payments on GI home loans, but highlights the difficulty veterans face in obtaining these loans due to credit institutions' reluctance to finance homes. The writer questions if the government can make GI loans more attractive to insurance companies and banks, or if they can finance the loans directly. The response acknowledges the issue, but expresses doubt about the feasibility of government financing due to high taxes. The writer appreciates the input and promises to consider possible solutions."]](https://jones-2.s3.amazonaws.com/George%20B.%20Schwabe%20Collection%20/82nd%20Congress,%201951-1953-CAC_CC_047_3_0000_0000_0000/CAC_CC_047_3_27_50_0000-Housing,%201951-1952/Thumbnails/CAC_CC_047_3_27_50_0004_thumbnail.jpg "Improving GI Home Loans: Addressing Challenges and Solutions")
