Jap Signals j
Early in War
WASHINGTON, Jan. 29
Signals from the shore aided 'the
Japanese in attacks on the west
J coast early in the war, but after
the evacuation of Japanese from
the area the signaling was ,vir
r tually eliminated. L.L Gen. John
L. DeWitt . says in a report . is
sued here: :;..). i w
In three eases specifically cited
in the general's report . to ' Gen.
George C Marshall, chief of staff,
he said that all three attacks by
airplane : or submarines were
aimed at spots where there were
no defenses to catch them. .
Cessation of the signaling, De
Witt said, also brought a reduction
In the number of submarine at
: tacks on ships sailing from west
coast ports. . -
DeWitt gave the account of the
ship-to-shore communications in
a 600-page final report; on, the
- evacuation of the Japanese resi
dents, a movement he supervised
' as commanding general of . the
western defense command ' and
; fourth army in 1912.
DeWitt said that the decision
to evacuate all persons of Jap
anese ancestry from the west coast
was not taken immediately on the
- outbreak of war, but grew out of
; series of intermediate steps.
Signaling was' observed from
buildings that could not be entered
without obtaining a search war
rent, radio messages were inter-
. cepted and a "fix" obtained on the
sending station within an area of
a city block, but the justice de
partment was not willing to make
mass raids' and the army still
lacked jurisdiction. DeWitt said.
For several weeks after TPearl
.Harbor, he reported, every ship
; leaving a west coast port was at
tacked by an enemy submarine.
"This seemed conclusively to
' point to the existence, of hostile
shore - to - ship (submarine)
communication,' he satiL In a
footnote he added "It is interest
ing to note that following the
evacuation, interception of : sus-
: picious -or unidentified radio sig-
' rials and short-to-ship signal lights
were virtually eliminated and at
tacks on outbound shipping from
west coast ports appreciably re
duced." DeWitlsreport asserts that,
whether bydesign or accident,"
, Japanese communities on the west
coast invariably flanked strategic
installations. While it was be
lieved that some were loyal, it was
believed also1' that others were not,
he says, and a positive determina-

Live Hog f
Ceiling
Is Revised
WASHINGTON, Jan. " 20-tfP-The
live hog ceiling was revised
this week to let public stockyard
dealers charge normal service fees
when - this Would bring the hog
price above the ceiling unit. ".
- A i dealer who I purchases hogs
in his own name at a public stock
yard and resells the animals at the
stockyard; thus will be permitted,
the office of : price administration
said to collect from his buyer a
service charge not in excess of that
listed by the dealer in his tariffs
filed under the packers and stock
yards actf o 1921. The order is
effective January 22. i
: Previously such dealers , were
forbidden to make any charge for
services if the service charge plus
the hog price brought the total
cost to the buyer above the hog
ceiling. : This meant the dealers
had -" to buy f at : considerably less
than the ceiling or discontinue the
service charge.--'-: - ,, -r -
Since it was impossible in many
cases to buy hogs J at' less-than-ceiling
prices, some stockyards
buyers werejforced to give up the
selecting and sorting services they
had been performing for many
eastern slaughterers, u - '
j OPA said the new action, while
correcting this situation, would not
increase retail prices of pork, be
cause the latter are sold under
specific cents-a-pound ceilings by
geographical zones. T j v
The service charge maximum of
$9 for a 14,000 pound truckload
was extended to $13 for a 22,000
pound truckload Tin the amended
regulations, j The new; rules also
permit dealers to charge for truck
ing hogs from their buying sta-
lions to the customer's receiving
points, even though 'the addition
of trucking charges boosts the
over-all price above ceiling, j
Saniiam Twists
-1
idge
; The strange whims of the San
tiam river 50 years ago have cre
ated a situation on the southwest
ern tip of Marion county. In that
area 566 acres of land owned by
J, H. Turnidge have been con
verted . into ; Linn county territory
by a wide i twist in the river's
coursend the catch, as far as
Turnidge is concerned, is that he
continues paying property taxes
to Marion county while never re
ceiving benefits due a taxpayer.
. County Judge Grant Murphy
cognizant of the situation, has
called a meeting of ' the Marion
and Linn county; courts for next
Tuesdayj to discuss, the question,
and take under advisement Turn
idge's request for ; a. road to be
built through the land under Mar
Ion couqty .auspices, so as to pro
vide an outlet for produce raised
on the land. Linn county has not
been , willing to act as the proper
ty is officially.in Marion county.
