![["The document from Rita M. DeCourcy to Representative George B. Schwabe expresses concern about the delay in demobilization of soldiers and sailors and urges him to sign a discharge petition in support of a bill introduced by Representative Paul Shafer.

He mentions his efforts to bring the soldiers back home through discussions with the President and bills introduced in Congress, but expresses doubt about the willingness of the government to pass any legislation until public opinion becomes overwhelmingly strong."]](/thumb/CAC_CC_047_1_6_55_0006.jpg "Petition for Discharge: A Call for Action")
