- Description:
- In a letter dated June 1, 1951, Congressman George B. Schwabe responds to a letter from Miss Lula M. Perkhiser expressing concerns about bills pending in Congress regarding increasing pay for federal employees and reducing sick and annual leave. Schwabe states that he will consider her suggestions and reasoning when the bills are discussed on the House floor. He acknowledges the challenges faced by federal employees due to rising living costs but also highlights the public demand for government economy measures, including reducing the number of federal employees. Schwabe concludes by expressing his belief that there are currently too many federal employees and that the taxpayers are demanding a reduction.
