i PAGE SIX THE BEND BULLETIN, BEND, OREGON. THURSDAY, FEB. 14, 1946 Whereabouts Of Marshall On Eve Of Harbor Asked Washington. Feb. 14 HP)- Rpd. Bertrand W. Gearhart, R., Calif., said today that "the great mys tery" of congress' Pearl Harbor Investigation Is the whereabouts of the army and navy high com mand on the evening preceding we attacK on Pearl Harbor. He called for a "common dis trict attorney's Investigation" to establish how Gen. George C. Marshall, 1941 army chief of staff, and Adm. Harold R. Stark, 1941 chief of naval operations, spent the evening hours of Dec. 6. "This mystery has been going on for five years and no one has tried to make a common district attorney's investigation to try and help Gen. Marshall remember where he was," Gearhart said. Whereabouts Unknown In questioning Henry C. Clau sen, who as an army lieutenant colonel conducted a special war department inquiry on the attack, Gearhart constantly reiterated that the previous investigations have failed to establish the where abouts of Marshall and Stark at that time.- He re-read an assertion by an army investigating board that Marshall "failed" in not forward ing to Gen. Walter C. Short, 1941 army Hawaiian commander, cer tain "critical information indicat ing an almost immediate break with Japan." Gearhart asked Clausen why no efforts had been made to ques tion Marshall's orderlies and chauffeur regarding the general's USE OUR DAILY FREE DELIVERY SERVICE Sunsweet Dried Prunes . . .2 lbs. 33c (Medium size sweet & tasty) , Macaroni, Elbow Cut ... .3 lbs. 25c Fancy Rice, Dundee . .2 lb. pkg. 25c Solid Pack Tomatoes . . .2 cans 43c . ...

'That would be like checking the little twigs on a tree when I was supposed to go after the trunk," Clausen replied. Clausen, constantly urging Gearhart "to be fair," told the committee that he didn't consider the whereabouts of Marshall and Stark "the main mystery of Pearl Harbor at all," suggesting that the following questions might be more important: 1. What information on Japan ese activities did Washington of ficials have? 2. What did they do about it? 3. What information did Ha waii have and what did they do about it. The committee hoped to finish with Clausen today but there ap peared little chance It could com plete hearings by tomorrow's deadline. A request for a- two- week extension appeared likely. TOWER Street, in I scene from "An Angel musical of adventure and romance Being Shot At No Joke, Salem Dean Convinced Salem, Ore., Feb. 14 UP-Dean Ray L. Smith of Willamette uni versity law school is wondering today If he is the victim of a practical joke or If someone is really trying to "rub him out." Dean Smith told police that an unidentified man pointed a pistol at him and fired twice when he answered a doorbell ring at his home last night. The man ran from the porch and to a car at the curb where another person shouted: "that's him. Get him," the dean said. Police could find no trace of bullets and theorized that it might have been a practical Joke. Dean Smith said it "wasn't funny."

Asked whether he was a can date himself. Wheeler said "I wouldn't take It if It was offered to me." White said he told 'the presi dent that "the Interior depart ment deals largely with the west and ,a thoroughgoing business man from the west is needed as secretary." "It was very encouraging to find that the president not, only was Interested in but understood the importance of developing the west."

Today countless farm trucks speed their produce over hard-surfaced or well-gravelled Oregon roads. The movement for better rural roads as a part of the Grange program is as old as the organization. It will continue to be a basic Grange policy as long as the need exists in any part of the State. ; Projects of this nature are as vital a part of Grange activities as better agriculture itself. That is why 28,000 progressive farmers belong to the Oregon State Grange why membership continues to grow why the Grange is a dominant force for social progress.
