the roOorl as exorcnsInK the be
lief that information on the
movement of American .ships
had been obtained by a Jana
nese-American stationed aboard
the Jap Admiral's flagship to de
code commercial Droaacasis.
The witness said one Japanese
who was interviewed related
that if It was rcDorted on the ra
dio that the German attache had
lost, one dog,- it might have
meant that an American carrier
had left the harbor,' '
Inglis emphasized that Amerl-
can officials in Honolulu said
they had failed to substantiate
that there had been any plan to
use' commercial Droaacasis. -In
fact. Jnglis said it would
have been unnecessary, since the
Japanese consul there could
communicate direct with Tokyo
by uncensored commercial cable
before the attack.

'.Japanese naval "leaders
planned to seek an immediate,
decisive sea battle with the
American fleet if the raid on
Pearl ... Harbor failed, congres

navy report on the Japanese
plans which said Tokyo's war
lords conceived the December 7
1941 attack in the first part of
January, 1841, trained for it in
the summer, and ordered it in
to effect December 2.
In testimony yesterday, Inglis
had said the United states Fa-
cif ic fleet was numerically infer
ior to the Japanese in Decem
ber, 1941. Thus It might have
faced defeat had the Japanese
brought it to battle.'
.. The report was based on trans
lations of captured documents,
questioning of prisoners of war,
and questionnaires which Gen.
Douglas A. MacArthur submitted
to former members of the Japa
nese naval' high command after
the occupation. -. - -.'

mander of the nationalist forces
assigned to take over Manchuria
