Mon Wallgren to Leave Post as Power Commission Chair
Former Washington governor Mon Wallgren, a close Truman ally, will resign as chairman of the Federal Power Commission sometime this summer. He cites personal reasons and will return to Washington to reassess his options, unsure if he will reenter politics. Wallgren, aged 60, was appointed in November 1949 and previously faced Senate opposition over a separate post nomination. Washington voters will elect a senator and governor next year.
