The letter discusses the importance of payments on copper, lead, and zinc premiums for mining operations in the Tri-State District, which were originally paid as subsidies through the Office of Price Administration. The author contacted the Reconstruction Finance Corporation to ensure these payments would continue, and received confirmation that they would be retroactive to June 30, 1946.
