Top WPB Officials to be Changed in Washington
Washington June 22 A complete reorganization of the War Production Board will reshuffle top officials this week and tie WPB more closely to military strategy. William H Harrison will move from production to the War Department to join the procurement setup. WPB Chairman Donald M Nelson and the army and navy chiefs of staff will be brought into closer contact to boost elasticity of war production. The plan includes standardizing equipment and coordinating Allied production with fronts. The changes follow recommendations by Dr. Luther Gulick and are not based on the senate report on dollar a year men. Senator George D Ga praised the overall performance of dollar a year men and others as doing a marvelous job.
