Drastic Changes Seen
In Home-Front Setup
Under New President
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press
Drastic changes in adminiStra-
ton of the home front war pro-
gram may grow out of Presi-
dent Trumans past differences
with the Army over some pro-
duction and supply phases.
AS chairman of the Senate's War
Investigating Committee, Mr. Tru-
mans controversies with the Serv-
ices of Supply, headed by Gen
Brehon B. Somervell, operating
under Undersecretary of War Pat
terson, we're sharp and sometimes
bitter
However they concerned only
such issues as production, construc-
ton and manpower utilization, in
which Mr.. Truman contended the
military usurped civilian functions.
They had nothing to do with mill
tary strategy and the fighting itself,
which Mr. Truman always recog-
nized as under superb leadership"
Mr.. Truman entered Office last
week determined to give that lead
ership all-out support.
During his three and one-half
years as committee chairman, Mr..
Truman never once inquired into
questions of strategy. His duties, as
he saw them, we're to investigate
waste and extravaganza" in the
munitions, camp construction, and
other programs backing up the
fighting men.
His committees pressure finally
resulted in placing overall control
in civilian HANDS in the War Pro-
duction Board.
A still greater degree of concen-
trating construction and war sur
plus disposal activities under civ
llian direction would carry out his
oft-eXpressed theories on this sub
ject.
Raped Canol Oil Project.
AS a Senator, Mr.. Truman was
outSpoken IN his condemnation Of
the Army's Sl34,O00,0O0 Canol oil de-
velopment in Canada. He called it
waste of both funds and manpower
Only recently the Army agreed to
close it down.
Mr.. Truman also was sharp in
his criticism of uniformed Army Of
ficers working in civilian agencies.
Uniforms" he once told the Sen
ate, should be used to distinguish
combatants on the field of battle"
Most of Mr. Truman's friends
look for some changes within the
next couple of months in his cab
met. Some of his closest advisors
have urged a drastic revision.
He has told cabinet members he
wants them to remain on, but thai
would not mean he wants all Of
them Indefinitely.
Associates on Capitol Hill are Of
the opinion that Secretary of State
Stettinius may move out some time
after the San Francisco Confer
ence has concluded its work on an
international organization.
They would not be surprised to
see that post offered to James F.
Byrnes, who resigned as war mobll-
izer shortly before President Roose-
velts death.
