had been received from the depart

Baker testified that an order of the
department to deport was final and
he therefore did not understand the
note from Howe and consulted him
Baker said that some of the radicals
affected by the stay had been released
by the department and some had OBJ
tanned their freedom by habeas corpus
proceedings. The effect Of Howe's
order to him, he said, was probably to
permit delay for the institution of
raheas corpus proceedings
Howe interrupted Bakers testimony
in an effort to give his version of the
matter, but was shut off by the COM
mittee, which promised him an oppor-
tunity to be heard later Failing to
obtain permission to testify earlier in
the day, he had issued a statement to
the press, saying that he had never
released a radical without orders from
Washington,
This statement was issued after
Howe had interrupted Byron II. Uhl
