wrung tribute from Field Mar
shal von Hindenburg after the
last conflict, and the grudging
acknowledgement: 'They under
stood war."
It was with high interest that
Washington received President
Roosevelfs surprise announce
ment last night, investing Nel
son, former mall order execu
tive, with supreme authority for
war material production.
Only a few hours earlier Nel
son had made plain that his goal
was to substitute "too much, too
soon" for the old "too little, too
late" cry that has dogged allied
arms.
"We're going to build so many
planes and tanks," he said,
speaking in his old role as OPM's
priority director, "that when this
is all over those of us who had
anything to do with it are going
to be criticized because we built
too much."
Now the big bulky, bespec
tacled man will have everything
to do with it.
In announcing his decision to
establish the new war production
board, Mr. Roosevelt said it
would have the powers now ex
ercised by the supply priorities
and allocations board, and that
Vice President Wallace as well
as other present members of
SPAB would serve on it. Nelson
has been SPAB's executive di
rector. Besides being chairman of the
board, Nelson "will be charged
with the direction of the pro
duction program and have gen
eral supervision over all pro
duction agencies," the White
House said. "His decision as to
questions of procurement and
production will be final.
"Mr. Nelson will report to the
president as to the progress of
the program. He will no longer
serve as director of the (OPM)
priorities division but will de
vote his entire time to directing
the production program.
Thus Nelson emerged as the
combination Beaverbrook-Baruch
of the war's production front bat
tle. His board appeared roughly
comparable to the war industries
board which Bernard M. Baruch
directed so astutely in World
War I, and will exercise powers
similar to those wielded by Brit
ain's ministry of supply, headed
by Lord Beaverbrook.

were made by manufacturers
who needed small quantities of
wools to piece out stocks on
hand. Fine territory wools of
average to good French combing
length were quoted at mostly
$1.10-1.13, scoured basis, and
one-half blood French combing
wools were quoted at $1.06-1.08
