WASHINGTON UPH Sunday
is a day off for Washington news
paper people, or most of them.
Washington cherishes the entire
weekend. This particular Sunday
not only was a day off, it was
glorious. Winter had not yet set
tled on the Atlantic seaboard.
The biggest weekend local news
had been the formal report of the
Secretary of Navy that our Navy
was "second to none." Earlier in
the week the House of Representa
tives had passed the Third Sup
plemental National Defense Ap
propriations Bill, a matter of $8 2
billions. The vote had been 309

fraudulently accepting county aid
lo needy children. They were ac
cused of receiving more than $21,
W3 in aid (or their 10 illegitimate

They were granted probation

Michael J. Galto of the Pittsburg
Judicial Court on the conditions
that they refrain from sexual

That is how it was on that day
of infamy, the Seventh Day of
December, 1941, in Washington,

to set up a simultaneous confer

"All on," Steve asked urgently,

"This is Steve Early- at the
White House,-' he said with as
much composure as he could
summon. "At 7:35 a.m., Hawaiian
time the Japanese bombed Pearl

many are dead."
That was about all Steve had
then. The time of awaiting events
had ended. By telephone, broad

around the golf links calling men
back to their desks. Bewildered
thousands in Griffith Stadium

scores of Army, Navy and other
government personages urgently
