Staff Only

The letter from Edward Watters, President of the Tulsa Rental Property Owners Association, requests relief from the Rent Regulations, specifically asking for higher rent ceilings to cover maintenance and repairs. Congressman George B. Schwabe acknowledges the request and forwards it to the Rent Control Division, but expresses skepticism about the likelihood of obtaining relief due to bureaucratic control in Washington. Schwabe also criticizes the Office of Price Administration for its oppressive regulations and advocates for independent and private enterprise rather than national control of economic activities.
