The first war powers act went further, enabling the president to make additional temporary im provements In the organization of the government. Changes un der this legislation, however, automatically revert to the for mer status six months after the termination of hostilities. Handicaps Foreseen The president said such auto matic reversion was unworkable and would result "in the re establishment of some agencies that should not be re-established." ' He said that, aside from dis position of the war organization of the government, other adjust ments are needed currently and continuously and that congress could not "deal effectively with numerous organization problems on an individual item basis." "Experiqncc has demonstrated that If substantial progress is to be made in these regards, it must be done through action initiated or taken by the president," Mr. Truman said. , Therefore he recommended permanent legislation to give him this authority. No Agency Exempt . He asked that no agency of the executive branch be exempted from authority. "The legislation should be suf ficiently broad and flexible to permit ... any form of organiza tional adjustment, large or small, for which necessity may arise." "Congressional criticisms are heard, not Infrequently, concern ing deficiencies In the executive .branch of the government," the president said. "I should be less than frank if I failed to point out that the congress cannot consist ently advance such criticisms and at the same time deny the presi dent the means of removing the causes at ,the root of such criticisms." Mrs. Flora Lanim Dies al Age of 83 Flora Elizabeth Lanlus, 83, died yesterday at her home in Union after a long Illness. She was born January 9, 1862 in Alabama and had resided In Union county 39 years, Surviv ors Includo four children, Jacob L of Unon, Mathilda J.

" Fighting swirled amung an ckiit tombs dotting the Shuri bridges. ; While the battle ruged on three sides of Shuri, the sixth marine division sent a column knifing ; southeast toward the rear up- ; proaches to the city. This drive : was aimed at completing the iso- lation of Shuii und cutting off retreat for the muin Japanese ; garrison. 1 s. Resistance south of Yonabaru, i where the seventh division was I advancing along the coast and -inland behind Shuri, was de- ' . scribed here as "relatively weak" compared with the stout defence of Shuri. A junction of the two divisions would encircle Shuri and the bulk of the Japanese garrison of 30,000 in southern Okinawa.
