CHARGES UNFAIRNESS
n;ssention Within Ranks
OF Agency Made Public
Rv Vice Chairman
WASHINGTON, Aug. "a.

WASHINGTON, Aug. "a
-(P)-The lid blew off a
hitter row in the War Pro-
auction Board today when
Charles E. Wilson, executive
vice chairman, resigned and
charged that he was the vic
Tim of unfair attacks and
criticisms" by aides of Chair
man Donald M. Nelson.
Wilson. former president of Gen
oral Electric company, accused
Nelson's personal assistants of in
sniring stories that he was acting
~ Spokesman for big business and
opposing plans for recovering IN
dustry to a pescetime basis.
"The dissension within the Or
o.nization does harm to the war
.,rod,ction effort and, therefore, to
tho country Wilson wrote Presl-
dent Roosevelt. Il am unwilling to
be a party to such controversy"
The resignation was accepted
with expressions of regret by the
president. VINO said he was aware
n some dissension" within WPB,
kew agency in charge Of the cum
RVS mammoth output of war ma
ierialS.
The develoIment confronted Mel
son with enc of the most serious
crises in WPB history, just as he
was preparing to depart on an eco
ncmic mission to China at the be-
hest of 3Ir Roosevelt.
The president tonight named 1t.
Commander J. A. Krug to be act
iug chairman during Nelson's alb
sence in Chungking. Krug recently
left WPB vice Craftsmanship to
take a naval commission.
High sources said Nelson planned
10 take the helm Of WPB personal
" on his return and would not
again delegate full authority over
WPB operations to any vice-chair-
man as he did in the case of Wilson.
Wilson who quit the $175, 000-a-
year presidency of General Electric
to take the vice craftsmanship two
years ago, went to Capitol Hill late
in the day to tell his views to the
Senate war investigating commit
tee. The committee chairman, SEN
ator Mead O.-N.Y.), later issued
statement saying rumors of a
Nelson Wilson row over reconver-
sion were ''unfounded and unfair
to both men,
Senator Ferguson (R. Mich.)
added that the government should
have stopped the rumors that cost
1t Wilson'S services. He also assert
ed Nelson should not be sent to
China at a time when the recon-
version problem is to the fore.
Il think it is a calamity to have
nm out Of the country, with Mr..
Wilson out of the picture, when
the European war might end be-
lore he can get back" Ferguson
said,

In the first official reply from
an Allied government to Romania's
announced decision to accept AL
lied peace terms, the Soviet gov
eminent said that if the Romanian
troops stopped fighting the Rus
slams and turned on the Germans,
cor against the Hungarians for the
liberation of Pennsylvania" then
the Red army will not disarm
them, will keep completely intact
for them their entire equipment,
and help them in this honorable
duty :,
Russia disavowed entirely any
desire to acquire Romanian terri
tory in the statement, issued by
the peoples commissariat for for
eign affairs and broadcast by the
Moscow radio.
The statement, recorded by the
Soviet monitor, contained no direct
reference to the proclamation by
King Mihai of Romania on We'd
nesday, but it answered the youth
full monarch plainly by declaring:
1.-The assistance of the Romanian
troops to the Red army troops in
the task of liquidating the German
troops is the only means of speedy
discrimination of military opera
tons on Romanian territory, and of
the conclusion of an armistice be-
tween Romania and the coalition
of the Allies" - =
In effect this meant that, despite
King Mihai's proclamation, a state
of war continues to exist between
Romania and Russia, Great Brit
ain and the United States.
No statement has yet been made
by the British and American gov
ernments, and in London diplomat
ic sources disclosed that Ronania's
sudden capitulation came as a bolt
from the blue to Britain. Since
there had been nc recent consul
tation it was believed Ron1ania
was moving now to accept what
Prime Minister Chu- chill has des-
cribed as the generous terms Of
fered six months ago.
