U. S. has WPB Chief Nelson to
thank for some semblance of bal­
ance between war and civilian pro­
duction. Despite a planned M-day
operating program which states that
“throughout the duration of the
war, the nation must continue to
provide all the material items upon
which the health and well-being of
its civilian'population depend. War
is no longer simply a battle be­
tween armed forces in the field”—
armed forces would siphon off bat­
tle requirements and leave civilians
standing in line for the crumbs.
As director Nelson kept a weath­
er eye on war and civilian “musts”
and as war material production
miraculously doubled and trebled in
eight months, below decks termites
toyed with social experiments and
gnawed at organization foundations.
Some house-cleaning is in order and
the job will be bossed by a changed
man who, Knowing his opposition,
will hew to the line and ride the
storm like the able captain he is.
Feeling that there is still too
much fat in the national economy,
the armed forces would undertake a
“frying out1 period during which
they alone would direct critical ma­
terials. After such a period, a read­
justment would be made to accom-
modate civilian ac.ivities. This is
the b: sis of the differences between
the thinking of the WPG chief and
that of the armed services. So long
as Mr. Nelson retains his present
authority over war production, how­
ever, there is little chance of the
Army’s taking over completely. Ex­
ecutive orders give him complete
power and the Army has only that
