- Description:
- The document is from the American War Dads of Shidler Chapter #56 in Oklahoma, requesting an amendment to the Federal Income Tax Act of 1944 to exempt men and women in the armed forces from income tax. They believe that these individuals are making significant sacrifices and should not be burdened with income tax when they return home. They are seeking the cooperation of Congressmen and Senators from Oklahoma to support this amendment. Another letter is included from a parent expressing concerns about the lack of opportunities for servicemen to continue their education after the war.
