The Office of Price Administration or O.P.A. for short was a government agency established in the United States during “the big war” whose primary function was to stabilize (control) both prices and rent during the war. The price controls were necessitated by rationing and were established to protect against inflation, price gouging by retailers and hoarding by those who more could afford to do so.
