![["Mr. Durham wrote to Congressman James R. Jones expressing his concern over the proposed tax increase, citing the burden it would place on families already struggling with rising living costs. He also questioned the reasons behind the tax hikes in Tulsa County, stating that some residents have seen their taxes triple without any corresponding improvements. Congressman Jones reassured Mr. Durham that Congress is working to hold down federal spending and that he would consider his concerns when voting on the tax increase."]](https://jones-2.s3.amazonaws.com/James%20R.%20Jones%20Collection/James%20R.%20Jones%20Correspondence%20Series,%201968-1986%20/CAC_CC_109_4_22_1_0000-District%20Office,%20Jones%20Clippings,%201973/Thumbnails/CAC_CC_109_4_22_34_0016_thumbnail.jpg "Correspondence between Congressman James R.
