Scope and Contents

Mrs. Fred W. Eastman wrote a letter to George B. Schwabe expressing her opposition to the O.P.A (Office of Price Administration) and its practices. She believes the O.P.A. has been destructive to free enterprise in America. George B. Schwabe, a member of the House of Representatives, agrees with her and has consistently voted against the O.P.A. He also acknowledges the need for some regulations but believes the O.P.A. has overstepped its authority. Mrs. Eastman urges Schwabe to use his influence to push for a restricted O.P.A. bill in Congress.
