![["The document from Mr. Schwabe to Mr. Bovaird discusses the change in policy of the Commissioner of Internal Revenue regarding the treatment of proceeds from sporting events conducted for charitable organizations. The document explains that while the previous practice allowed for the entire net proceeds to be given to charities during the war, the current policy requires racing associations to include the proceeds in their gross income but allows for deductions for contributions to charitable organizations. The reasoning for this change is explained to be due to the end of the war emergency. Mr. Schwabe expresses willingness to provide further assistance and information on the matter."]](https://jones-2.s3.amazonaws.com/George%20B.%20Schwabe%20Collection%20/CAC_CC_047_1_0000_0000_0000-79th%20Congress,%201945-1947/%20CAC_CC_047_1_3_31_0000-Internal%20Revenue,%201945-1946/%20CAC_CC_047_1_3_31_0000-Thumbnails/CAC_CC_047_1_3_31_0001_thumbnail.jpg "Changes in Tax Regulations for Charitable Contributions from Sporting Events")

He believes that if the OPA were to be abolished, prices would adjust naturally and poor people would be able to afford what they need. Gershom also criticizes the OPA for favoring the rich and preventing the poor from accessing basic necessities."]](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_19_0000-Price%20Controls,%201946/Thumbnails/CAC_CC_047_1_6_19_0013_thumbnail.jpg "A Poor Man's Perspective on the O.P.A.")
