- Description:
- The document is from a constituent to Congressman Geo. B. Schwabe expressing concern about the labor situation, specifically regarding the hiring of returning service men. The constituent suggests that women are being hired over men, even when the men are more qualified for the job. They believe that women should stay at home and let heads of families have the job opportunities. The constituent also mentions the struggles of families in need of work and suggests that laws should be passed to prioritize the employment of heads of families over women. The document ends with a request for the Congressman's opinion on the matter.
