- Description:
- Miss Janie Moody wrote to Congressman George B. Schwabe in support of the Townsend Bill, H.R. 2229, which aims to provide old age assistance to citizens of the United States. She questions if Schwabe has signed a petition to bring the bill for a hearing in the House and states that she and her family members will support a congressman who supports the bill in the upcoming 1946 election. Schwabe responds by expressing his support for old age assistance and criticizing the use of political "snoopers" in the administration of funds for the elderly.
