Two letters which Gen. George
C. Marshall wrote to Gov.
Thomas E. Dewey during the
1944 presidential campaign,
asking him not to disclose that
the United States had broken
Japanese codes, were placed be
fore the Pearl Harbor investi
gating committee today.
Chairman Alben W. Barkley,
D. , Ky., announced that the
committee took responsibility
for disclosing the entire con

felt that even now the disclosure
of this Information might Im
pair U. S. relations with one of
our allies.
Firit Letter Unread
Marshall wrote the first let
ter to Dewey Sept. 25, 1944. He
sent it to Dewey by special
courier Col. Carter Clarke,
who had charge of the most
secret documents of the war and
navy departments.
It asked Dewey to stop read
ing at the end of the second
paragraph unless he was willing
to keep its contents strictly
secret.
The second letter was written
Sept. 27. 1944. It showed that
Clarke had returned from see
ing Dewey and reported that
the republican presidential can
didate was unwilling to be bound
by certain circumstances. In
view of that fact Marshall wrote
the second letter.
Politics Dilemma
Marshall said he was writing
because of a "military dilemma
resulting from congressional
political battles of the presiden
tial campaign.
Then he went on to say that
the most vital evidence in the
Pearl Harbor matter was the
interception of Japanese diplo
matic communications.
Earlier Marshall had told the
committee that he drafted a war
warning to Pacific commanders
on Dec. 7, 1941, as soon as he
learned of Japan's decision to
break off negotiations later that
day.

AS long as our country's supply of
industrial fats is so low, the gov
ernment must determine how much fat
can be released to make soap and other
peacetime goods.
Any let-down in your saving of used
kitchen fats will make our fat supply
even less. ..and the amount allowed for
soap manufacture may have to be cut
accordingly. The ed of rationing of
food fats doesn't change the picture.
Industrial fats re still very short. So
keep turning in your used fats, won't
you? . . . and speed the return of more
soaps to your dealer's shelves.

ized the man's injury was se
rious and started immediately
