- Description:
- The document from George B. Schwabe to Kenneth Couch discusses the revocation of construction order L-41 and the removal of rent control in the Tulsa area. Schwabe criticizes the Office of Price Administration for only revoking the order after public pressure and highlights the impact on housing development and reconstruction efforts. The response from Chester Bowles acknowledges the concerns raised by the Tulsa Real Estate Board and explains the decision-making process behind the removal of rent control, citing the need to prevent inflationary rent increases.
