![["The document is from K.B. Cornell, a public accountant, to Congressman George B. Schwabe regarding H.R. 1631, a bill concerning lands near El Reno, Oklahoma. Cornell supports the bill as it is just for the Cheyenne-Indian Tribe and believes in doing what is right, regardless of political affiliation. He also mentions his professional field in tax accounting and praises Schwabe's ideas on taxation preferences. Cornell leaves the matter to Schwabe's judgement and expresses frustration over recent political events."]](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_55_0000-Indians,%201951/Thumbnails/CAC_CC_047_3_27_55_0003_thumbnail.jpg "Advocating for Justice: A Letter to Congressman George B.

![["The document is a letter from George B. Schwabe to Edward A. Thompson discussing flood control projects and the need for flood prevention rather than just flood control. Schwabe emphasizes the importance of addressing the issue at the source of the problem, such as constructing smaller dams and barriers on smaller streams to prevent flooding downstream. He also criticizes the misuse of public funds in flood control projects and the lack of consideration for the impact on the environment and economy. Thompson responds, agreeing with Schwabe's views and expressing concern about the misuse of public money in flood control programs."]](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_0012_thumbnail.jpg "The Importance of Flood Prevention in Infrastructure Development")
