![["The recipient of the letter, Mrs. White, wrote to Congressman Schwabe about her financial struggles as a widow of a non-service connected veteran. She expressed her support for a bill introduced by Schwabe for the relief of another veteran, Edward B. Massie. Schwabe responded sympathetically, stating that he has not been able to get action on the bill yet, but hopes it may provide assistance to Mrs. White in the future. Mrs. White pleaded for support for widows like herself who are struggling financially."]](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_36_0000-Private%20Legislation,%201946/Thumbnails/CAC_CC_047_1_6_36_0019_thumbnail.jpg "Title: A Plea for Veteran Widows: The Fight for Fair Compensation")
