In summary, the record of these
ASFWPB relationships seems to suggest first of all that the difficulties
arose from fundamental differences between the personalities of Nelson and
Somervell: A second factor was the absence of a clear-cut understanding of
the respective roles of the military procurement agencies and the central
economic control agency. From the ASF point of view it seemed clear that
it was the WPB-or certain persons inside the WPB-who could not or would
not understand the differences in the responsibility of each agency.
