Civil and Industrial War Planning Handed to Civilians
Washington June 25 The administration placed complete civilian control over civil defense and industrial mobilization for war emergencies. Nine federal agencies receive NSRB planning duties to revitalize a lagging effort and negate the Hopley civil defense proposal. The move shifts military supervision, with Truman seeking planning for civil defense in wartime, while NSRB resumes mobilization planning for all industries and disaster relief. Agencies named include Federal Security Agency Atomic Energy Commission Agriculture Commerce Interior Treasury Justice and others as needed.
