- Description:
- The document is a response to Mr. Fred E. Ward's request for the restoration of O.P.A. rent and price controls. The writer acknowledges receiving the request but states that the majority of constituents are against the resurrection of O.P.A. The writer criticizes the O.P.A. officials and salaried people for pressuring Congress to continue O.P.A. for their own benefit. The writer also mentions that there are red-blooded Americans who are against the New Deal program of planned economy. Lastly, a telegram from George B. Schwabe urges for positive action in restoring O.P.A. rent and price controls to protect the middle class Americans.
