Cookerly to Congressman George B. Schwabe, expressing dissatisfaction with the OPA rent control regulations. Cookerly believes the OPA should be abolished or amended to be more fair and reasonable. He requests Schwabe to take action on this issue and suggests reading certain paragraphs for more information. The document also mentions a petition approved by the Tulsa Property Owners association asking for relief from OPA regulations and requesting rent ceiling increases. Schwabe is urged to take steps to remove the regulation giving tenants perpetual leases, which often lead to property damage. The document emphasizes the need for fair treatment for both landlords and tenants and additional rents to cover maintenance costs. Additionally, the letter mentions the unexpected death of George W. Way, a steel firm manager and civic leader.
