- Description:
- George B. Schwabe received a postal card from Mrs. J.H. Garrison asking him to support a proposed loan to Britain. Schwabe sent out a questionnaire to 40,000 people in his district and found that over 90% were against the loan. He believes that he should represent his constituents honestly, even if it goes against their views. He suggests that those in favor of the loan should buy British Bonds. Mrs. Garrison believes the loan to Britain is justified and will help world trade, and urges Schwabe to vote for it. Schwabe did not vote for the Reciprocal Trade Agreement Bill and stands by his decision.
