- Description:
- The document from George Schwabe to Homer Hufft explains that he has been advocating for a bill to automatically release fathers from the service, but has faced challenges from military authorities and the New Deal crowd. He expresses disappointment in not being able to pass the bill and appreciates the support from individuals like Hufft. The response from Namer Height to Schwabe urges for expedited return of servicemen home and calls for peacetime conscription to ensure that veterans are taken care of. Height also expresses concerns about delays in sending men home and urges for action from Congress to address the issue.
