- Description:
- The document is a letter from George B. Schwabe to Claude Eckert expressing opposition to the O.P.A. and C.I.O.'s propaganda efforts. Schwabe criticizes government bureaus and agencies, and mentions his attempt to declare the end of the war through a bill, which was blocked by the New Deal majority in Congress. He urges people to vote against those with New Deal leanings in the upcoming election. The document also mentions a broadcast by Fulton Lewis A. discussing the C.I.O.'s efforts to promote O.P.A. and calls for action to abolish O.P.A. and other restrictions imposed on the American people. There is mention of a movement to impeach President Truman and a request for support in this endeavor.
