Schwabe to David P. Johnson discusses the upcoming hearing on the Toronto Dam and expresses Schwabe's belief that preventing floods along the Verdigris River in Oklahoma should start by holding back water in Kansas. Johnson's letter to Schwabe informs him of the hearing and requests his support for the Toronto dam project to reduce flood damage in the area.
