The document consists of two letters expressing disapproval of the proposed extension of the O.P.A. (Office of Price Administration). The first letter, written by George B. Schwabe, M.C., criticizes the O.P.A. as obnoxious and un-American, stating that those in favor of it have personal or selfish motives. The second letter, written by an individual named Tom Dolan, also expresses a desire for the O.P.A. to end in order to alleviate the burden on taxpayers. Both letters highlight opposition to the O.P.A. and its perceived negative impact.
