residents under the Jackson
County Public Welfare commis
sion increased 39 cases ior July

civilian employment at Camp
White which last year was at a
high level for older men and
women, I
The report shows that July's
cases this year, numbering 160,
were handled for the sum of
$5,575, while 121 cases In July,

Washington, Aug. 25 U.R
Lt. Cmdr. J. A. Krug, back just
48 hours from the Normandy
battlefront, shed his navy uni
form today and took command
of the embattled War Produc
tion Board with orders from
President Roosevelt to "take it
and run it" while Chairman
Donald M. Nelson is gone on a
White House mission to China.
The 37-year-old Krug, who
was a WPB vice chairman until
he joined the navy several
months ago, got his new ap
pointment late yesterday when
WPB executive vice-chairman
Charles E. Wilson resigned and
brought to a dramatic climax
his long-smouldering feud with
the WPB boss.
Accepting Wilson's resigna
tion with reluctance, Mr. Roose
velt appointed Krug as acting
WPB chairman In Nelson"s ab
sence but there was consider
able speculation as to whether
Nelson would return as head
of the agency.
Krug told the United Press
toat he was not advised
during his talk with the Chief
Executive whether his assign
ment was temporary.
"The President just told me
to take it and run it," he said.
Krug returned to Washington
two days ago from the European
war theater where he directed
the restoration of utilities in
I'Aily and France.
Wilson, the former $175,000-a-year
president of General
Electric who was called into
the WPB to break bottlenecks
and ship building, followed his
resignation with a bitter denun
ciation of Nelson, leaving high
and dry the congressmen and
others who had been protesting
up to the last minute that if
anything reigned within the
WPB it was harmony.
