![["The document from Mr. Leslie J. Coffman to Honorable George B. Schwabe expresses concern about veterans not having the opportunity to purchase surplus equipment before dealers. The Reconstruction Finance Corporation responded, explaining that a new regulation gives veterans preference in purchasing equipment, but they must be certified by the Smaller War Plants Corporation. The document also mentions upcoming sales at army camps where veterans will have priority. Additionally, there is criticism of the lack of notice and information provided about these sales to the public."]](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_64_0000-Reconstruction%20Finance%20Corporation,%201945-1946/Thumbnails/CAC_CC_047_1_3_64_0003_thumbnail.jpg "Veterans' Preference in Surplus Property Sales")

Bill of Rights\" to provide benefits for men over 25 years of age who want to pursue graduate or refresher courses. While Schwabe appreciates the suggestion, he believes there is not a significant demand for this and that Congress is currently focused on other issues. Rees argues that there is a need for better trained technical men, especially older university graduates who want to pursue further education. He requests Schwabe to consider expanding the benefits of the G.I. Bill to accommodate this group. Schwabe expresses willingness to consider the suggestion but believes it may not pass Congress in the near future."]](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_50_0000-Servicemen,%201945-1946/Thumbnails/CAC_CC_047_1_6_50_0005_thumbnail.jpg "Proposal for Enlargement of the G.I.
