Somervell Ditched M Day Plan Says Johnson
Louis C. Johnson former Assistant Secretary of War testified before the Senate War Investigating Committee that he and President Roosevelt knew as early as 1938 war was coming. He said two former cabinet members Perkins and Woodring and Gen. Somervell blocked prewar mobilization steps and that a detailed plan was shelved for not fitting Somervell’s aims. Forrestal disputed the plan’s scope as too generalized. Johnson noted Somervell even planned to remove General Marshall. He spoke from Washington as the inquiry neared further disclosures.
