10 government 80 per cent re
ductions on war inuterluls and
personnel.
With the exception of Benja
min C. Marsh, executive secre
tary of Peoples' Lobby, Inc.,
Washington, all witnesses before
a senate commerce subcommit
tee attacked the rales, establish
ed to compensate Hie cavern
ment for hinds grunted railroads
in the 1850 s to induce con
struction on lines to the west
and south.
Marsh urged that the lines
bo made to prove they were en
titled to the relief "beforo you
make this concession."
Railroad witnesses charged
the reductions wcro not now
justified, that they wore dis
criminatory against shippers not
situated along land grant rail
roads and that the government
had been more than compen
sated for the granted lands.
They said further that the cuts
mada a "fair and just" national
rate structure impossible and
threatened the postwar security
of the roads because of the un
certainty of the amounts the
government would recover in
disputed claims.
This stand was supported by
railroad labor representatives
and trucking interests.
Among those supporting re
peal of the rates was K. C.
Batchelder, traffic manager of
the West Coast Lumbermen's
association, Seattle.

German Alien in Charge
Of Hawaii Construction,
Reports House Committee
WASHINGTON, June 14 (A')
A congressional coimuiUcu'N In

parations at Pearl Harbor pro
duced a report today highlight
ed by descriptions uf yachting
parties given (or the army col
onel In charge of construction In
Hawaii by a Ciermjin-born con
tractor who held war department
contracts for the work.
The report, by the house mili
tary committee, culled on the
urmy for "further explanation"
of what it termed "management"
on tho part of Col. Theodore Wy
man Jr., und why tho contracts
had been awarded to Hans Wll
helm Kohl, then u Gorman alien
although ho had been a resident
of the United States since HHU.
He was nuturullxud, the commit
tee said, only three months be
fore tho sneak Japanese attack
on Pearl Harbor.
Asserting there were unex
plained delays in construction,
particularly In building tin air
craft warning system, the report
said that had the system been
completed on schedule the attack
on the Pacific bastion might hava
been robbed of much of Its sur
prise. The committee, saying It could
not understand "why a man
known to he u German alien"
was put In charge of tho work,
devoted a portion of its report to
Kohl's personal background, not
ing that he "braggrd of close ac
quaintance with ull visiting Ger
man diplomats and persons of
high rank."
wymon and Rohl met In Los
Angeles in 1035, the committee
stated, and "developed very close
social relations" which led, the
report added, to parties aboard!
Rohl's yacht, the "Humonn."
Among entertainment the com-,
mittee said Kohl provided for;
the colonel were "wild drinking;
parties" at which "cheap-looking
type of young girls paraded in;
and out all evening." 1
The long report contained no:
conclusions and only brief corn-!
mittee comment. Whether addl-
tlonnl reports of the cose would!
be made, said Chairman May ff
Ky.), depends on future develop
ments, adding:
"The next move Is tip to the
war department.
H, Ralph Burton, committee
Investigator who prepared the re
port, said his last Information
was that Rohl still was In busi
ness In Los Angeles.
Rohl was a molor stockholder
In Hawaiian Constructors, a joint
contracting venture which held
$125,000,000 in contracts (or
work in Hawaii, Alaska and
South Pacific Islands.
Wymon, 88-year-old veteran of
tho last war, wus an engineer of
ficer in charge of defense con
struction in the Hawaiian and
South Pacific areas. He Is now
stationed overseas.
The committee said that de
spite knowledge that Rohl was a
German alien, the war depart
ment, upon Wyman's reeommen.
datinn, on December 20. 1940,
entered into a contract with Ha
waiian Constructors to Install de
fense projects In Hawaii "which
meant the safety and protection
of tho United Slates."
Less than two months before
(ho Pearl Harbor attack, It add
ed, tho department gave the com
pany a contract to begin con
struction of an air route by way
of Christmas Island, Canton,
