![["Mr. Owen wrote a letter to George Schwabe expressing his desire for O.P.A. to be extended to where supply meets demand, for an anti-strike law with teeth, and for appropriations to be reduced.

Schwabe advocates for a return to free enterprise and the removal of bureaucratic control to increase production and reduce the need for borrowing money."]](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_30_0000-Price%20Controls,%201946/Thumbnails/CAC_CC_047_1_6_30_0010_thumbnail.jpg "Inconsistencies in Government Policies")
