Administration urges House to yield on wage bill
Senate Agriculture committee quickly approved the bill. Senator Henry P. Cain urged President Truman to nominate a permanent chairman of the National Security Resources Board to refute rumors that he plans to give former Governor Mon Wallgren of Washington state an interim appointment. Truman nominated Wallgren earlier, but the nomination was tabled by the Senate Armed Services Committee. He can give Wallgren an interim appointment as soon as Congress adjourns, with the appointment standing until January reconvenes.
