One was John Lord O'Brian, WPB | general counsel and former cor-| poration lawyer, who several months | ago whitewashed some $l1-men as- sailed by the Truman committee. | The other was Sidney Weinberg, Wall Street banker and executive assistant to Nelson. Before sending the letter to the committee, Nelson summoned top WPB executives and informed them | of his intention to confer person- ally with it what was what. “I'm going up there tomorrow morning,” Nelson said, “and put them in theéir places. . They can’t push me around. . I won't stand for these attacks. They are not helping the war effort.” Nelson went “up there” all right, but before he got through he was singing a different tune. The committee quietly listened to him as he criticized the réport and | urged the elimination 6f its caustic | strictures against his $l-a-year masterminds.. Then when Nelson finished, Sen- iator Truman opened up. . Ordin-| arily the bespectacled Muso\umn is one of the mildest mannered men on Capitol Hill. But when he does get angry, he gets very angry.
