Truman Proposes Major Federal Agency Reorganization
President Truman seeks a broad reshaping of federal agencies, shifting roles among the ICC FTC FPC SEC NLRB and CAB. Key moves include transferring the Bureau of Employees' Compensation to Labor, coordinating wages and hours for federal contracts, and reorganizing the Maritime Commission into a Commerce Department arm with a new Undersecretary for transportation. The plan also proposes abolishing the NELRE general counsel office and transferring its functions to the board, a move likely to provoke congressional opposition.
