WASHINGTON, Dec. 29 (AP) -
Secretary Wilbur today flatly
turned down request by men,
bers of the House naval commit
tee for a copy, to be kept in con-
fidence, of the report on possible
dangers in the Pacific ocean area,
made several years ago, by Ad-
miral Gleaves, while in command
of the Asiatic fleet.
Representative McClintic, OF Ok
lahoma, a Democratic member
said Chairman Butler at his sug-
gestion made the request on the
day of the, acquittal of Albert B.
Fall. former interior secretary,
and Edward L. Doheny, the mil
lionaire oil man, on a charge of
conspiracy in the leasing of naval
oil lands, with which was linked
the construction of storage tanks
in Hawaii.
During the trial defense counsel
stressed the report as one of the
reasons prompting the leasing of
the Elk Hills reserve in California
to Doheny, and, although Secretary
Wilbur at that time refused to
make the report public, frequent
reference was made to the docu-
ment as conveying warning of a
grave national emergency in the
Pacific.
