Schwabe expresses concern about the amount of support and aid the United States has given to Great Britain, particularly in times of war. Watt questions the financial burden placed on American taxpayers and suggests that it is time for Great Britain to pay back the money they owe. He also raises concerns about the lack of consideration shown by Great Britain and calls for a more equitable distribution of resources in times of conflict."]](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_45_0000-Foreign%20Policy,%201951/Thumbnails/CAC_CC_047_3_27_45_0019_thumbnail.jpg "The Cost of Foreign Policy: A Letter from a Concerned Citizen")
![["The first letter is from Leg. Schwartz to Dr. Rex M. Graham discussing the need for flood prevention rather than flood control, advocating for the construction of small dams upstream to prevent flood disasters. Schwartz also criticizes the practice of mixing flood control and power generation in the same dam. The second letter is from R.M. Gishan to the Grand River Dam Authority expressing frustration over the high water levels in the Grand River Dam leading to flooding in Miami. Gishan believes the flood was man-made and vows to take legal and political action to address the issue."]](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_0004_thumbnail.jpg "Flood Prevention Measures: A Call for Action")

Bartlett and provides recommendations and comments from the Oklahoma City Indian Health Board and the Oklahoma City Urban Indian Health Project. They support the scholarship program and recommend contracting it to Tribal groups for efficiency.

![["The Talihina Indian Hospital in LeFlore County, Oklahoma, has been affected by budget cuts resulting in the loss of 23 employee positions. The cuts are part of a nationwide problem in Indian health services due to increased retirement deductions for civil service workers. The Choctaw Indians, who rely on the hospital as a major employer, are protesting the layoffs. Despite rumors of more layoffs, officials confirm that no further reductions are planned. Congressman Page Belcher has the best economy record among Oklahoma's House members, supporting 74% of economy moves. Congress, overall, has rejected more than half of its chances to save taxpayer money in 1957."]](https://jones-2.s3.amazonaws.com/Carl%20Albert%20Collection,%201947-1977/Departmental,%201945-1976%20(CAC_CC_001_4_0000_0000)/CAC_CC_001_4_27_26b_0000%20--%20Health,%20Education%20and%20Welfare%20-%20Public%20Health%20Service%20-%20Talihina%20Indian%20Hospital,%201957/Thumbnails/CAC_CC_001_4_27_26b_0011_thumbnail.jpg "Cuts and Protests: Indian Health Service in Oklahoma")
