The attorney then inquired about
| the general board of the Navy, which
had recommended the project to Sec
retary DENLY. Gregory replied that
| the board was composed OF "the very
highest officers OF the line, whose
| function II is to consider all essential
| features of strategy and policy"
Mr. Hogan elected from the wit
ness that 1.-The Navy places In the
general board the highest confidence

| Mr. Hogan asked the witness the
| need of the secret orders with which
| the papers were marked. He replied
| that the plans and specifications
| themselves were not marked secret
| but when given to the j. G. White
| Corporation and others it was with
| the request that there be no publicity
on account of their confidential ma
ture.
Personnel Of Board.
| Mr.. Lambert. attorney for Fall
asked about the personnel of the gen

''Of course not replied the witness
| In cross examination Mr.. Roberts
asked whether it was known by the

He replied that the board understood
that Secretary Fall was the business

examination, Admiral Gregory was
excused.

meeting with Doheny, sr. The witness
replied that it was February 16, 1922
| He first met j. J. Cotter of the Do
heny company in January, 1922, and
then he explained that he recalled a
| casual meeting with him some years
| before.
Mr.. Dunn had never had business
relations with the Pan-American Co.,
prior to this 1922 meeting, though he
| said the company may possibly have
bought oil from the Doheny firm.
At present, the White Engineering
| Co. has no business relations with the
Pan-American nor with Mr.. Doheny
he said.
The Pearl Harbor project was first
brought to his attention by Director
Balm, whom he saw in Washington on
December %. 1921. Balm disclosed to
him the project at this conference.
Confidential Nature Stated.
"I1e first said that he wanted to

Navy regarded it as so important
that the pIans were brought over by

ary IS. and asked the witness If ne
discussed this with Fall before they
were dispatched. The witness was
uncertain in lis mind whether he
had talked with Fall or not. and Mr.
Roberts refreshed his memory by con
fronting him with the testimony he
gave in Los Angeles, which stated
that Balm told Fall in substance the
nature Of the proposition and re
ceived his approval.
Expected Only One Bid.
AS q result of his conferences with
various concerns who might be in
duced to bid on the project, Balm tes
tilted that on his return to Wash
ington he told Fall there was but one
bid to be expected and that was from
the Pan-American Co. The others
were partial bids. due to "teaming
up" he said.
Mr.. Roberts then drew from the
witness the statement that before Fall
left for New Mexico in April. about
two days before the bids were opened,
he told Balm and Finney not to close
any contract without advising him
and not exercise any independent ac-
ZION without referring it to him. Balm
sought to inject into this statement
the words and the Navy also" but
Roberts produced his Los Angeles tes-
timony. which did not call for any
conferences with the Navy.
Balm was asked IF he had been
aware of the fact that a man named
Williamson had been assigned to take
the proposals, not the bids. and draft
a formal contract for submission to
Fall before he went away. but the
witness could throw no light on this.
Balm did know. however. that con
ferences had been held between Gino
Dunn of the White Co, Joseph j.
totter of the DohCny Co. and sev.
eral Interior Department officials be
fore the bids were opened on the
question of regulating royalties in the
contract that had not then been exc
cuted because the bids had not been
received
