- Description:
- The document is a letter from a constituent to Congressman George B. Schwabe, urging him to consider favorably the passage of the Loan to Britain. The constituent expresses concern about the opposition the loan is facing in Washington and believes it is essential for the future welfare and the making of a new world. The Congressman conducted a poll in his district that showed the majority of constituents are against the British loan, as well as other proposed loans to foreign governments. The constituent suggests offering those in favor of the loan the opportunity to buy British Government I.O.U's with their own funds instead of using taxpayer money.
