- Description:
- The document is a correspondence between Mr. D. M. Hawkins and Congressman George B. Schwabe regarding their opposition to the Office of Price Administration (OPA) and its practices. Both express their belief that the OPA is un-American and detrimental to free enterprise in the country. Schwabe mentions his voting record against the OPA and thanks Hawkins for sharing his thoughts on the matter. Hawkins emphasizes his opposition to the OPA's policies aimed at making businesses operate at a loss, which he views as a step towards state socialism or communism.
