A thirty-four year old graduate of Harvard Law School, Sol A. Rosenblatt, is the new director of NRA compliance. In this post, to which he was promoted Monday after having served as divisional administrator in charge of the Amusement Code, Rosenblatt will be one of the most powerful figures in the NRA

He will be in charge of coordinating compliance in all its phases. His appointment, Washington observers believe, signifies a tightening up of the NRA. As director of compliance, Rosenblatt will be in command of all forty-eight State enforcement offices and of a personnel of 1,500 enforcement employes He will work in cooperation with the Federal Trade Commission and the Department of Justice.

As code administrator for the motion picture industry, Rosenblatt made an enviable reputation for himself. A former associate of Attorney Nathan Burkan, he understood the peculiar mechanism of the theatrical set-up and was able to work harmoniously with all branches of the industry.

In his new work he will be favored with the good will of organized labor as he is looked upon as a fair administrator, sympathetic with the aims of the Recovery Act. He was a special guest speaker at the recent convention of the American Federation of Labor in San Francisco

Mr. Rosenblatt, whose appointment was announced by Chairman S. Clay Williams of the National Industrial Recovery Board, succeeds A. R. Glancy, a General Motors executive.
