President Seeks
Power to Shakeup
Federal Agencies
(Continued from Page 1)
which he has ordered, with the
alteration subject to disapproval
by a majority of cue of the two
houses within 80 days.
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."

Japs Wage Hot Defense j
The assault troorjs. sunnnrtcrl I
by military, were met with vin- '
lent blasts of machine gun and ,
rifle fire from entrenched Jap- '
unese, who sporadically emerged ;
from their defense positions to -counter-attack
the Yanks. "
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. Com
plete conquest of the island, al
ready being converted into a base
for an invasion of Japan, appear
ed at hand.
In Nuha, the marines were dig- j
ging in on high ground on the '
south bank of the Asuto 1,200
yards from the heart of the city
under moderate small arms and
mortar fire. They sloshed across'
the hip-deep, 60-foot wide river
in groups of six to eight. ;

changed its course and made new Jf
mouths for' itself on the coast
nine times in the last 25 centur
