![["The document is from Mr. Hargett to Representative George Schwabe, expressing agreement with Schwabe's stance against the extension of OPA (Office of Price Administration) and planned economy. Hargett argues that now is the best time to eliminate OPA controls, especially on livestock, grain, and dairy products, as these products are moving into normal trade channels and subsidies are being absorbed without negative consumer reaction. Hargett believes that restoring price controls will re-establish black markets and delay normal trade functioning. He urges Schwabe to continue voting against OPA extension and to influence other representatives to do the same."]](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_28_0000-Price%20Controls,%201946/Thumbnails/CAC_CC_047_1_6_28_0031_thumbnail.jpg "Opposition to OPA Extension: A Letter Exchange")
