![["A petition to Congress is calling for the abolition of the Office of Price Administration (OPA) due to its oppression of small businesses, veterans, and widows, violation of laws and the Constitution, destruction of small businesses, causing scarcity in necessities, fostering black markets, wasting public funds, and showing opposition to free enterprise. The petition also criticizes the OPA for furthering communist ideals, being un-American, tyrannical, and corrupt. Specific examples are provided to support these claims, including arbitrary regulations, unfair fines, and abusive behavior towards citizens. The petition argues that the OPA's false theory of central control is misguided and that most Americans are honest and patriotic, not in need of excessive government intervention."]](https://jones-2.s3.amazonaws.com/George%20B.%20Schwabe%20Collection%20/CAC_CC_047_1_0000_0000_0000-79th%20Congress,%201945-1947/CAC_CC_047_1_3_46_0000-Price%20Administration,%201945/Thumbnails/CAC_CC_047_1_3_46_0014_thumbnail.jpg "Petition to Abolish the Office of Price Administration: A Call for Sensible Controls and Freedom")
![["Miss Patricia D. Canon wrote a letter to Congressman George B.

![["The document outlines a proposed bill that aims to settle all claims of every Indian tribe in Oklahoma without the need for additional rolls of Indians. It requires Oklahoma Indians to renounce tribal allegiance and federal benefits in order to receive benefits under the proposed act. The bill also gives Oklahoma Indians possession of their lands and moneys, places properties on tax rolls, safeguards the interests of minors and mentally incompetent adult Indians, and provides for payment of any money due to the Federal Government. Additionally, the bill transfers federal properties to the Veteran's Administration and the State of Oklahoma, repeals conflicting acts, and provides for the final settlement of claims of Oklahoma Indian tribes."]](https://jones-2.s3.amazonaws.com/George%20B.%20Schwabe%20Collection%20/CAC_CC_047_1_0000_0000_0000-79th%20Congress,%201945-1947/CAC_CC_047_1_5_54_0000-Indian%20Claims%20Commission,%201945-1946/Thumbnails/CAC_CC_047_1_5_54_0003_thumbnail.jpg "Proposed Legislation for Final Settlement of Oklahoma Indian Claims")
![["The document is from Dan Danciger, president of Danciger Oil & Refining Co., to Honorable George B. Schwabe expressing concerns about the power of labor unions and their impact on businesses. Danciger requests legislation to restrict political contributions from unions, make closed shop agreements illegal, subject unions to anti-trust laws, regulate picketing during labor disputes, and hold unions accountable for collective bargaining agreements. Danciger warns of the potential for inflation and the threat to the American way of life if these issues are not addressed. Schwabe responds, expressing agreement with Danciger's concerns and plans to share his arguments in the Congressional Record. Schwabe also acknowledges the need for change in Congress and the National Administration to address these issues."]](https://jones-2.s3.amazonaws.com/George%20B.%20Schwabe%20Collection%20/CAC_CC_047_1_0000_0000_0000-79th%20Congress,%201945-1947/CAC_CC_047_1_5_65_0000-Labor,%201945-1946/Thumbnails/CAC_CC_047_1_5_65_0007_thumbnail.jpg "Concerns of Independent Refineries: A Call for Legislative Action")
