- Description:
- The document consists of two letters expressing opposition to the Office of Price Administration (OPA) and its policies. The first letter, written by George B. Schwabe, a member of the House of Representatives, criticizes the OPA as obnoxious and un-American. Schwabe details his opposition to the OPA and its practices and expresses gratitude for the recipient's similar views. The second letter, written by the Treasurer of Iverson Tool Company, also criticizes the OPA's policies and advocates for the lifting of price controls to allow for a more normal economy. The document also calls for Congress to reduce government expenses by cutting unnecessary employees.
