- Description:
- The document from Mr. Leslie J. Coffman to Honorable George B. Schwabe expresses concern about veterans not having the opportunity to purchase surplus equipment before dealers. The Reconstruction Finance Corporation responded, explaining that a new regulation gives veterans preference in purchasing equipment, but they must be certified by the Smaller War Plants Corporation. The document also mentions upcoming sales at army camps where veterans will have priority. Additionally, there is criticism of the lack of notice and information provided about these sales to the public.
