title Of assistant administrator. but
early in the game Johnson put him
on the shelf.
That arrangement would have con-
tinued indefinitely had Gates not
scribbled critical memOs continuously

much of the generals time that the
resignation was mutually agreed on to
save them both the trouble of arguing
indefinitely.
