ident Roosevelt plans to sign an,
executive order. probably sometime
today, providing for a shakeup In
the national defense organization
and placing the United States on a
full wartime economy basis.
Specifically the executive order
will deal with the administration OF
priorities alloting scarce strategic
materials needed In defense produc-
ton TO civilian industry. At the
same time, the order will provide
means to ease the shock OF the de-
tense program on industries that are
faced with shutdowns because they
cannot get raw materials.
Mr.. Roosevelt explained at his
press conference that the executive
order will provide means TO give
industries 80 or 60 days supplies OF
materials II they are threatened
with shutdowns. During the 80 or so
day period, the industries then can
try TO convert their facilities to de-
tense production.
Machinery will also be set up In
the executive order TO aid workers
thrown into idleness because OF the
defense program. Mr.. Roosevelt de-
elared that II may be necessary
also TO use the unemployment COM
pensatfon laws 70 tide workers over
during periods OF idleness.
The executive order, based on a
survey made by Judge Samuel Ros-

fight between the OPM directed by
William s. Knudsen and the OPACS
headed by Leon Henderson.
