![["Mr. Schwabe received a telegram from Mr. Shannon regarding H.R. 3914, a bill seeking to amend the Fair Labor Standards Act of 1938. Schwabe does not support the bill because he believes the author is radical and unlikely to consider the concerns of business owners like Shannon. Schwabe assures Shannon that he will work to protect business concerns and their rights. Shannon requests that Schwabe object to certain provisions of the bill that would affect retailing."]](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_5_77_0000-Labor,%201945-1946/Thumbnails/CAC_CC_047_1_5_77_0016_thumbnail.jpg "Correspondence Regarding Opposition to Amendments to the Fair Labor Standards Act of 1938")
