- Description:
- The document from George B. Schwabe to Earl R. Cass expresses frustration with the lack of funding and improvement of highways in northeastern Oklahoma compared to other parts of the state. Schwabe highlights the poor condition of United States Highway No. 60 and urges for equal allocation of funds for highway construction in all parts of the state. The document from the Eastern Oklahoma Development Association to Congressman Schwabe requests increased federal aid for highway construction in the state, emphasizing the importance of a well-funded post-war highway system. The association's resolution calls for an additional $500,000,000 in federal aid for each of the first three post-war years.
