Schwabe, a member of Congress, in response to a letter from Sgt. A. E. Walter regarding the extension of Selective Service or the Draft Act. Schwabe expresses understanding and support for the concerns of soldiers like Walter who feel mistreated and ignored. He criticizes the military for not being fair in trying to raise a volunteer army and suggests that the draft of teen-agers is being pushed by pressure groups. Schwabe emphasizes the importance of transparency and fairness in military decisions and expresses his commitment to voting to relieve soldiers from their dilemma. Walter's letter also highlights the importance of maintaining military power for national and international security.</dc:description></oai_dc:dc>
