![["The document consists of two letters discussing the topic of price controls and the OPA bill. The first letter, written by George B. Schwabe, thanks the recipient for expressing disapproval of price control legislation and states that the majority of constituents are also against it. The second letter, written by W.C. Franklin, expresses disappointment in President Truman's veto of the OPA bill but ultimately opposes reviving the OPA due to the President's actions. Both letters discuss the belief that the American people can make the right decisions without government intervention in the form of price controls."]](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_6_24_0000-Price%20Controls,%201946/Thumbnails/CAC_CC_047_1_6_24_0013_thumbnail.jpg "Opposition to Price Controls: A Letter Exchange")
