- The document is a thank you note from Congressman James R. Jones to Mr. Sherman Woods for his letter regarding non-essential Federal expenditures. Jones expresses agreement with the need to eliminate unnecessary spending and states that he has supported budget-cutting initiatives in Congress. Woods encourages Jones to continue setting an example of fiscal responsibility in government and to stop wasteful spending practices. Woods emphasizes the importance of government officials remembering where the money comes from and suggests that a "day's pay for a day's work" motto should be implemented in Washington.
