Byrnes poised to control war agencies under FDR plan
The article details a Roosevelt proposal placing Economic Stabilizer James Byrnes in direct charge of key war offices. He would oversee the War Production Board, War Manpower Commission, Selective Service, Office of Price Administration, and Office of Defense Transportation, reporting to the White House as the chief decision maker. It also notes reactions, including relief for the President and a shift in advisory dynamics with Congress. The piece also covers Philip Murray’s real estate gamble and salary cuts tied to a stalled C I O deal, plus a flashback on Henry Stimson’s international diplomacy and a curious 1931 Tokyo–San Francisco goodwill flight.
