![["The document is a letter from T. L. Robinson to George B. Schwabe, a Member of Congress, expressing frustration with the OPA (Office of Price Administration) and their treatment of citizens in the district. Robinson details instances of mistreatment and unfair rent control policies imposed by the OPA. He asks for Schwabe's help in addressing these issues and suggests that Oklahoma should be allowed to manage its own affairs without interference from the OPA in Kansas. Schwabe acknowledges Robinson's concerns and assures him that he will address the issue in Congress."]](https://jones-2.s3.amazonaws.com/George%20B.%20Schwabe%20Collection%20/CAC_CC_047_1_0000_0000_0000-79th%20Congress,%201945-1947/CAC_CC_047_1_3_60_0000-Price%20Administration,%201946/Thumbnails/CAC_CC_047_1_3_60_0003_thumbnail.jpg "Concerns and Complaints: A Letter to Congressman Schwabe")

She expresses concern for her son who enlisted in the Navy and is being sent overseas after only 10 weeks of training. Congressman Schwabe responds, stating that he has voiced his disapproval of the practice to the House Military Affairs Committee and will continue to oppose it. He acknowledges that Congress does not directly control the matter, as it is handled by the Executive Department. Schwabe offers to help in any way he can and encloses a release from the War Department on the subject."]](https://jones-2.s3.amazonaws.com/George%20B.%20Schwabe%20Collection%20/CAC_CC_047_1_0000_0000_0000-79th%20Congress,%201945-1947/CAC_CC_047_1_6_42_0000-Selective%20Service,%201945/Thumbnails/CAC_CC_047_1_6_42_0006_thumbnail.jpg "Concerns About Sending Young Boys Overseas: A Mother's Plea")

Kingsbury acknowledging receipt of a letter regarding the drafting of 17 and 18 year old boys into the service and sending them overseas without much training.

He mentions making protests against the practice and believes that the boys could be used in a different way until they are more proficient and seasoned. Schwabe offers his assistance to Kingsbury and expresses his continued stance on the issue until convinced otherwise. The document also includes a letter from an unidentified individual to a judge expressing concern about sending 18 year old boys to the front lines with only four months of training."]](https://jones-2.s3.amazonaws.com/George%20B.%20Schwabe%20Collection%20/CAC_CC_047_1_0000_0000_0000-79th%20Congress,%201945-1947/CAC_CC_047_1_6_42_0000-Selective%20Service,%201945/Thumbnails/CAC_CC_047_1_6_42_0014_thumbnail.jpg "Concerns about Drafting Young Soldiers into Service")

![["Mrs. M. D. Myrick sent a letter to Congressman W. G. Stigler regarding proposed bills concerning the Ohio Royal Shawnee Indians and the Black Bob Band. The document was then referred to Congressman George B. Schwabe, who is a member of the House Committee on Indian Affairs. Schwabe informed Mrs. Myrick that the committee is currently conducting hearings on proposed measures relating to Indian claims and suggested that it would be more appropriate to establish an Indian Claims Commission rather than giving jurisdiction to the U. S. Court of Claims. Schwabe stated that he is unable to pass an act authorizing the Court of Claims to assume jurisdiction of the claims at this time, especially since a bill seeking to establish an Indian Claims Commission is pending.
