- Description:
- The document is from Philip K. Blough, an attorney with the United States Corps of Engineers in Tulsa, Oklahoma, to Honorable George B. Schwabe, a member of the House of Representatives. Blough is advocating for a pay increase for federal employees, citing the high cost of living in Tulsa and the need to save for the future. He mentions a pending bill in Congress and expresses hope that Schwabe will consider and support the pay increase. Schwabe responds, acknowledging the need for cuts in government spending but also recognizing the importance of retaining experienced federal employees. He assures Blough that he will keep his arguments in mind when the bill comes to the Floor of the House for consideration.
