The question Of lsbors role in
the defense picture had been left
unsettled. however At the initial
meeting, at which the top men Of
the war and navy departments OBJ
tanned the presidents consent to
immediate action, plan for
three man supreme defense coun-
Gil composed of Knudsen, Secre-
tary of War Henry Stimson and
Secretary of the Navy Frank
Knox, had been tentatively adopted.
But it had been left open whether
labor representative would be
made co-equal with knudsen and
the two secretaries, or whether
labor would be subordinated in the
defense organization to the coun-
Gil Of three.
At another meeting at the
White House Friday, the first
alternative was adopted. De-
Tense Commissioner Sidney
Hillman was added 10 the
council Of three, and the
quartet was given final au-
thority over the defense pro-
gram under a forgotten pro-
vision of the first reorganiza-
ton act. The question now il
whether the final arrangement
will be as satisfactory as the
one first proposed. The most
convincing land encouraging)
answer is to he found in the
background of this vitality i'm
