- Description:
- The document consists of a letter from M. Sanditen, President of the Oklahoma Tire & Supply Co., to Representative George B. Schwabe expressing opposition to H.R. 3914, which would subject retail businesses with more than four outlets or annual volume over $500,000 to the Fair Labor Standards Act. Sanditen believes this legislation would unfairly discriminate against larger retail businesses and set a dangerous precedent. Schwabe responds by stating his opposition to the bill and criticizing the socialistic and communistic programs of the current administration.
