Saf f ord Knew He Was Breaking Navy Regulations When He Undertook To Clear Admiral Kimmel Of PH Blame By J. W. DAVIS WASHINGTON, Feb. 6 (VP) Naval Capt. L. F. Saf ford testi fied today he knew he was breaking naval regulations when he undertook a campaign to clear Rear Adm, Husband E. Kimmel of blame for the Pearl Harbor disaster. Safford told the senate-house committee investigating the De cember 7, 1941 attack that he believed he had to launch the campaign because he had at first felt bitter against the 1941 Pa cific fleet commander. - "I had to do something to make amends," he said slowly. Safford wrote in a secret-code letter to Captain A. D. Kramer Jn January, 1944, that Kimmel and the 1941 army commander at Pearl ' Harbor had "been framed." He asked that Kramer line up Adm. William F. Halsey In "the cause" of clearing Kim mel. "This defense of Admiral Kim mel has puzzled me," Senator Lucas (D-Ill.) told the witness. "You knew you were doing omething wrong, violating navy regulations, did you not?" Safford sat silent in the wit ness chair, his front hand pressed against his reddened face and he waited long before he answered: "Yes."

Reports will be heard from Indian Claims Commission To Be Set Up WASHINGTON, Feb. 6 (VP) The house rules committee today approved legislation to set up an Indian claims commission and establish a five-year statute of limitations on filing of Indian claims against the government. The bill, of which Rep Stigler (D-Okla.) is author, already has received unanimous approval of the house Indian affairs com mittee. It would establish a three-man commission to pass on all Indian claims. All such claims would have to be filed within five years from the day the bill becomes law. They would be barred thereafter. The commission would exist ten years. Stigler said he favored aboli tion of the Indian office on a fixed date and "emancipation of the Indian." Chairman Jackson (D-Wash.) of the Indian affairs committee urged the rules committee to ap' prove the bill. He told the com mittee the proposed legislation would assure equitable treat ment for Indians. He said it would save the government ?100,000 a year in investigating claims, some of which, he added, have been pending for 80 years. "Many Indians, who otherwise would have been independent, self-supporting citizens, Jack son told the committee, "have become indolent dreamers wait ing all their lives for settlement of claims that are never made. Whatever the amount the Indian tribes have due them, it will be better for the government to pay them."
