- Description:
- Mr. Charles A. Bredin wrote a letter to Congressman George B. Schwabe expressing his frustration with postmasters not following Civil Service regulations regarding seniority of post office clerks. Bredin requested support for a bill that would enforce seniority rights for post office clerks and ensure fair treatment in job assignments. He also mentioned potential support from the American Federation of Post Office Clerks and the possibility of a general strike if the issue is not addressed. Congressman Schwabe acknowledged the letter and stated that he would consider the matter if such legislation is introduced in Congress.
