- Description:
- The document is a letter requesting support for the Burch Bill, H.R. 5059, from George Schwabe, a member of the House of Representatives in Washington, D.C. The bill aims to address a 20 percent reduction in salary for postal workers due to the return to a 40-hour workweek. The document asks for assistance in bringing the bill to a vote as soon as possible, as it is retroactive to Jan. 1, 1946. The employees of the Hominy Post Office and postal workers everywhere are hopeful for the bill's passage to help alleviate their financial strain.
