The document is from George B. Schwabe, a member of Congress, responding to Mr. and Mrs. Frank Hervey's opposition to the O.P.A (Office of Price Administration). Schwabe agrees with their views and expresses his own strong opposition to the O.P.A, stating that he has consistently voted against its extension and practices. He views the O.P.A as destructive to free enterprise in America and considers it to be the most obnoxious and un-American of all federal bureaus. Schwabe thanks the Harvey's for sharing their thoughts and expresses his well wishes.
