Staff Only

The letter from George B. Schwabe to the Office of Price Administration requests the discontinuation of meat rationing based on a telegram received from the Oklahoma Retail Grocers Association. The letter highlights the availability of meats, particularly beef, and suggests that removing rationing would benefit both consumers and farmers. The Office of Price Administration responds, explaining the revised rationing program and stating that they are monitoring supplies to potentially relax or eliminate rationing controls as conditions warrant. They are unable to return the telegram as it was not received with the initial communication.
