George Ishihara, personnel supervisor, was elected temporary chairman, pending arrival of Chief Supervisor James Sakamoto this Saturday.
Staff members declared there was still considerable confusion among the camp's fast growing population as to the established administrative machinery and procedure to be followed in disposing of area problems and complaints.
All section and area questions, it was agreed, must first be discussed by area councils. Area officers were advised not to take their difficulties directly to the Wartime Civilian Control Administration office.
WCCA officials, according to headquarters, will not recognize issues unless they are presented by headquarters. All matters not settled by area councils are to be referred to headquarters, which in turn will deal directly with the WCCA office as a final resort.
"We have been informed by WCCA officers," Chairman Ishihara said, "that too many area officers are taking too many minor area problems directly to top WCCA officials."

Meanwhile, Rev. G. Shoji announced St. Peter's members in Area "A" will meet this Sunday for a Holy Communion Service from 6:30 a.m. at the Area Headquarters Office.
Headquarters staff was defined as "the supreme coordinating body for all four camp areas, and will be the only administrative group set up to work in direct conjunction with WCCA."
Explanations concerning procedure to be followed in settling complaints were prompted by the transfer yesterday of all single men from Areas "A," "B" and "C" to new quarters in "D." Headquarters had been informed of a petition of protest, subsequently referred to Area "D" Director Frank Kinomoto, which was reported circulating among the transferred bachelors.
Yesterday's meeting also spiked apparently prevalent notions that the camp administration was in the hands of the Japanese American Citizen's League.
"Basic steps, such as the transfer and relocation of people within the different areas, are decided by the WCCA and the Army," a headquarters spokesman declared.
Additional discussion at the meeting centered upon clarification of staff members' individual duties and assignments.
Attending were Ishihara, Personnel Officer Taul Watanabe, Judge Advocate Clarence Arai, Classification Officer Dyke Miyagawa; Dick Takeuchi, Publicity; Julius Fujihira, Headquarters Commandant; Kaz Tamura, Chief Fire Marshall; Sanni Kaneko, Police Chief; Yone Arai, Chief Personnel Assistant; Chick Uno, Athletics; Merry Mimbu, Education; and Tom Kobayashi, Chaplain.
