Hodges highlights a specific case of excessive rent charges in Bartlesville and requests assistance in addressing such issues. Congressman Schwabe responds, expressing his belief that price controls are not consistent with a capitalist system and are only suitable for dire emergencies. He notes that there have been complaints in areas with rent controls, but not in Bartlesville where there are none.
