- Description:
- The document is a letter from Hiram Preston White to George B. Schwabe discussing the negative effects of the OPA (Office of Price Administration) and advocating for its elimination to allow the law of supply and demand to govern. The document highlights the consequences of the OPA, such as the loss of mattresses leading to the loss of families, contacts, propagation, manpower, and ultimately the war of 1966. White believes that the people still have a sense of free endeavor and responsibility that should be given another chance without the interference of the OPA.
