Scope and Contents

The document is a letter from Mr. and Mrs. Paul H. Johnson to Hon. Geo. B. Schwabe expressing their support for ending bureaucratic control and price controls, particularly in relation to rent control. They believe that rent control has been unjustly administered and have personal experiences with its negative effects. They argue that rent control has led to unfair situations where those least able to pay rent end up paying proportionately higher rents. They also suggest alternative ways in which the rent control organization could have been used more effectively.
