White House Seeks
Broader Bill on
Property Seizure
New Version OF Defense
Measure Sent to Senate
Militory Committee
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press
The White House sent to the
Senate Military Committee today q
new version of the proposed defense
property seizure bill which some
committeeman characterized as
more broad in its terms than meas
ures submitted by the War Depart
ment.
Presented by Wayne Coy of the
White House staff, the measure
would permit the President to
requisition any property he deemed
was required for defense. A previ-
ous War Department version had
limited such requislriOn powers TO
military articles.
Senator Lodge. Republican, OF
Massachusetts said this section of
the bill aroused immediate ObJec-
tions from some committee MEM
bers when it was considered in
closed session He said it was his
impression that such a provision
would be far broader than a proposal
made recently by Robert p. Patter-
son. Undersecretary of War.
On the other hand. Senator Chand-
Ter. Democrat, of Kentucky. sponsor
ing the new measure. noted that
under a new section written into the
compromise draft the reQulSitlon
powers could not be exercised until
all other means of obtaining use of
such property upon fair and reason
able terms have been exhausted.
Senator Lodge agreed that this would
limit application of the bill some
what.
In addition. Senator Chandler
said. the new version contained the
stipulation that the powers TO be
granted under the act should eX-
pire June 80. l943, and that prop
erty seized by requisition action,
which includes compensation 10 the
owner. should be turned back TO
owners who repaid its fair value not
later than December 81. 1943
Senator Chandler said Mr.. Coy
and Mr. Patterson. who also was
present at the closed meeting had
agreed 10 60 over the bill thoroughly
and report back to the committee
for its further consideration of the
measure tomorrow afternoon.

nuiry into the project when ne asked
how you happened TO get so far of

Admiral Moreell explained that,
while the number of officers, en-
listed men and cadets at Corpus
Christi had not been increased since
Congress authorized the station TO
be built last year. facilities for these
men had been increased consider
ably. An additional landing field is
one Of the new projects.
Chairman Vinson suggested our

Hawaii's civilian population could

Navy property from sabotage.
He advanced this possibility after
Representative Vincent Democrat
of Kentucky had inquired as to
whether the many different nation
slities in Hawaii were loyal TO the
United States"
Mr.. Vincent said he raised the
question because If We have pow
der keg there. maybe there is some
thing We can do about it, One
way TO meet the situation. he added
would be to deport disloyal residents
Would Avoid Deportation.
When Admiral Moreell replied he
was not in position" to discuss the
LOYALTY Of Hawailans, Representative
Vinson interjected that he believed
the Navy was doing everything nee
essary to protect its island bases.
He added:
Just because We have few Japs
and maybe thousands of them
there we can't hesitate 10 put up
bases in Hawaii. If necessary, We
can segregate them. But let's don t
go into deportation in this bill.
We've still got Mr.. Bridges Harry
