Justice Byrnes Seen as Head of New War Setup

Washington sources report President Roosevelt may appoint Associate Justice James F. Byrnes to coordinate war production and supply efforts. The move would avoid removing Byrnes from the Supreme Court, with some suggesting a temporary assignment. Others recall prior use of Justice Owen J. Roberts to head a wartime commission. There is growing congressional demand for a single war production head. Supporters urge a strong administrator to oversee production under Roosevelt, while Mayor Fiorello LaGuardia was considered but kept in civilian defense.
