How did Henry Stimson become the chief operating officer of the atomic bombing?

The following is a continuation of the previous chapter.
How did Henry Stimson become the chief operating officer of the atomic bombing?
In the intensive series 'Roosevelt's 'Real Enemy' American First Principles Committee' by Soki Watanabe, published until the May issue,
He detailed the battle between the Franklin Delano Roosevelt (FDR) administration and the 'American First Principles Committee' established on behalf of the overwhelming public opinion advocating non-interference in the European front.
It may have been understood that the FDR administration had 'destroyed' the First Principles Committee, which had suppressed US participation (interferenceism), by causing Japan to attack Pearl Harbor.
In this series, you will be asked to clarify the conduct of Henry Stimson (Army Secretary), a representative figure among the FDR administration that lasted for the fourth quarter, and the interferivists (international liberal devotees) in the vicinity.
As an FDR 'weapon.'
I have challenged the 'Roosevelt myth,' which was fictional after the war, through my previous books and previous series.
Through this work, I believe that I was able to gain a specific understanding of the relationship between the unusual personality of FDR and the war.
FDR rarely read books.
There are traces of reading history books, but they are 'military history' and not right history books.
Joseph Stalin's collection is more than 20,000, which is a big difference from Joseph Stalin, who spoke of the book, 'How to deal with all the upcoming events is already written in those books.'
Still, in 1940, he made his first third-term election in American history, and in 44, concealed from the public that he was suffering from a severe disease, he succeeded in the fourth-term election.
The reason is that he had a nifty speech power and a natural intuition as a 'politician' that beats domestic enemies (non-interference forces) led by the American First Principles Committee.
However, FDR, which was not well known in history and economy, had another weapon.
'Excellent' interferenceists gathered around him.
The first was Stimson.
