Congressional Salaries and Responsibilities: A Discussion with George B. Schwabe and E. J. O'Connor1945-09-06unknownhttp://rightsstatements.org/vocab/NKC/1.0/enghttp://congressarchives.org/record/CAC_CC_047_1_3_54_0012The document exchange between Mr. Schwabe and Mr. O'Connor discusses their views on the President's proposed "New Deal" program and the suggestion to increase Congressmen's salaries. Mr. Schwabe is skeptical of the President's motives and opposes most of the program, predicting that it will not be adopted by Congress. Mr. O'Connor supports the idea of doubling Congressmen's salaries, with the condition that Congress regains its powers and corrects past mistakes. Both men appreciate each other's forthright expressions and agree on certain points.
