War Production Board Chairman Julius A. Krug told the senate investigation committee that Congress failed to put teeth in manpower control, causing worker shortages in critical war programs. He said agencies propose labor ceilings on service occupations but have no enforcement power beyond public opinion. He denied agencies agreed to stop criticizing each other, saying they will reach agreements on manpower needs.
