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

'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.

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."

Senators Confer
With Truman On
Ickes Successor
Washington, Feb. 14 (IB Presi
dent Truman held a series of
brief conferences today with
western, senators and congress
men to discuss a successor to
Harold Ickes as secretary of in
terior. Rep. Compton I. White, D., Ida.,
said he urged Truman to appoint
a "western business man" to the
post
"The president agrees with
me. White said.
Other callers Included Sen.
Carl A. Hatch, D., N. M., chair
man of the public lands commit
tee to which Mr. Truman's nomi
nation will go; Sen. Burton K.
Wheeler, D., Mont.; Sen. Joseph
C. CMahoney, D., Wyo.; Sen.
Elbert X. Thomas, D Utah, and
Sen. Abe Murdock, D., Utah.
CIsrk Is Proposed
Wheeler said after the meeting
with the president he would like
to see former democratic Sen. D.
Worth Clark of Idaho get the Job,
but would not admit that he sugr
gested Clark s name to the presi
dent. . &
"We ought to have an out
standing man from the west,"
Wheeler said.
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."
Wants Business Man
White said the president did
not tell him If he had any par
ticular person in mind for the
Job. . ,
"But he agrees with me- that a
Dusiness man a western Dull
ness man Is needed," White
added. - j
Hatch said he "did not submit
any particular name, but several
i ncmes were mentioned during our
discussion.
"I got the impression that the
president has not made a choice
but is weighing qualifications
and wants to get the best possible
man for the job," Hatch said. '
He would not disclose the
names-mentioned in his talk with
the president. Hatch and
O'Mahoney both said they too fa
vored a westerner for the job.

Grangers Grow Social Crops

v V- V"f 1
SMOOTH OPEN ROADS from farm to market
had their beginning in Grange-sponsored legislation.
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.
Information about the purpose
and accomplishments of the Ore
gon State Grange Is contained in
a booklet "Let's Look at the
Record", Contact your local
Grange for copy, or write direct.
