- Description:
- The Oklahoma Philatelic Society passed a resolution requesting that all future postage stamps issued by the United States bear the full name "United States of America" instead of just "United States." The resolution was acknowledged by Congressman George B. Schwabe, who ensured that it was included in the Congressional Record. The Society expressed appreciation for his assistance and informed him that they had distributed copies of the resolution to the press and philatelic publications. They may request further assistance from his office in the future.
