President urged to drop Wallgren nomination fight
Lieutenants push Truman to avoid Senate clash over Mon C Wallgren as Armed Services panel tabled his nomination to head the National Security Resources Board. Truman hoped for committee revival while Wallgren supporters scout possible vote changes to win confirmation. An attempt to discharge the panel would pressure Senator Tydings amid his minority stance. A Florida trip preceded by a letter from Truman urged Byrd to back revival efforts.
