- Description:
- The document from George B. Schwabe, M.C. to Ted Smith, Secretary of Rialto Mining Corporation, discusses the issue of payment of premiums on copper, lead, and zinc affecting mining operations in the Tri-State District. Schwabe explains his efforts to secure these payments through the Reconstruction Finance Corporation and the importance of the pending OPA bill. He also mentions contacting John R. Steelman and working on attaching the Bunker Bill to the Reconstruction Finance Corporation extension bill. Schwabe expresses doubt about the passing of any relief measures until the OPA bill is finalized. Additionally, a telegram from Schwabe to Smith reiterates his actions in contacting Steelman and pushing for the payment of premiums by the Reconstruction Finance Corporation.
