Handbook of
Emergency
War Agencies
OFFICE OF WAR INFORMATION
March 1943
This whole Nation of one hundred and
thirty million free men and women and children is becoming one great fighting force. Some of us are soldiers or sailors, some of us are civilians. Some of us are fighting the war in airplanes five miles above the continent of Europe or the islands of the Pacific—and some of us are fighting it in mines deep down in the earth of Pennsylvania or Montana. A few of us are decorated with medals for heroic achievement, but all of us can have that deep and permanent inner satisfaction that comes from doing the best we know how—each of us playing an honorable part in the great struggle to save our democratic civilization.

PURPOSE
HpHE Handbook of Emergency War Agencies is a guide to Fed-x eral agencies all of whose present functions are devoted to the prosecution of the war. No attempt has been made to include activities of the agencies originally established for other purposes, even though much of their present work has been integrated with the War Program.
The Handbook includes organizational outlines and the names and addresses of officials of emergency war agencies, the War and Navy Departments, and the United States Maritime Commission. It is designed to help the public reach the services it needs within these agencies. The outlines therefore do not necessarily include all divisions of each war agency. Statements with reference to creation, authority, and general background have been omitted inasmuch as that material is contained in the United States Govern-ment'Manual published by the Office of War Information.
Persons who have need of more specific direction may avail themselves of the services of the United States Information Center, 1400 Pennsylvania Avenue NW., Washington, D. C. The Center, under the Office of War Information, acts for the Federal Government in answering questions on any phase of Federal activities or in directing inquiries to the proper channels.

The Office of Lend-Lease Administration was established to administer the Lend-Lease Act of March 1941.

That policy has been followed, and today the Office of Lend-Lease Administration is a comparatively small, policy-making, planning, and directive organization. Procurement functions are delegated to the Treasury, Agriculture, Navy, and War Departments, and the United States Maritime Commission.
The Office may be described as the organization which receives requests for aid from other United Nations, passes on the validity of the requests, and follows through frcm the initial requisition to delivery at destination.
Lend-lease aid is in terms of goods and services. Goods include industrial items such as steel, petroleum products, machinery, machine tools, and various raw materials; and foodstuffs and other agricultural products. Services include the rental and charter of ships to carry goods, the development and operation of air ferry routes and supply bases abroad, repairs to allied merchant and naval vessels damaged by enemy action, and the construction of factories and shipyards in the United States to produce lend-leasc articles.

Industry Divisions
The Industry Divisions serve as focal points between the War Production Board and the industries assigned to them.
Within each of the Industry Divisions are a Labor Advisory Committee and one or more Industry Advisory Committees, through which the advice of labor and management can be fully utilized, and a Subrequirements Committee comprising representatives of the Army, Navy, United States Maritime Commission, Board of Economic Warfare, Office of Lend-Lease Administration, Office of Civilian Supply, and other claimant agencies.
Through its staff, each division sees to it that its industries are in line with approved programs.
The Program Sections of each division, working with the central Program Bureau, estimate requirements of manufacturers and propose a reconciliation between those requirements and available supply. The Distribution Sections of the divisions, working with the central Distribution Bureau, assure that the products of the various industries are produced and distributed in accordance with program determinations and that the industries get everything they need for approved production. The Resources Sections, in collaboration with the various staff agencies, assure that industries assigned to each division are utilizing the resources of the Nation to the fullest extent in the execution of their approved programs.
To further narrow the focal point between the War Production Board and industry, the divisions are broken down into industry and commodity sections, which give specialized attention to each industry or to groups of closely related industries.
Thus, each division helps its industries to maximum production of the
45
things the United States and its allies need most, as determined by the Requirements Committee and the claimant agencies.
