- Description:
- The document is a response to Mr. Alfred E. Ballin's concerns regarding Bill No. S 1592, known as the W-E-T Bill on public housing, and the President's reorganization plans. The writer, George B. Schwabe, expresses his opposition to the bill and any measures that involve the federal government in the housing business, citing concerns about socialism. He also mentions his vote against the President's reorganization plans in the House. Schwabe includes a copy of S.1592 for Ballin's reference. Ballin's original letter expressed concerns about the bill's cost and potential impact on state socialism, as well as his opposition to the reorganization plans.
