The document is from Dwight M. Mitchel to Congressman George B. Schwabe urging him to maintain the Office of Price Administration (OPA) in order to prevent the economic state of the country from getting out of balance. Mitchel expresses concern about a drive in Congress to amend the OPA's activities, and emphasizes the importance of price controls for small businesses. He also mentions that constituents are closely watching their congressman's voting record and hopes that Schwabe will not be seen as opposing the OPA in the upcoming election.
