Japanese spies, 1t was said. per-
sistently used radio telephone and
radio telegraph, knowing the diff
ficulties that barred tapping, and
that originals of messages sent by
radio telegraph were not open to
inspection by the FBI because Of
the law forbidding the opening of

The Roberts report told how In the
days Immediately preceding the at
tack, the use Of such facilities by
the Japanese Consul General for
transmission of messages In his
own name and the names of others
was greatly increased.
The ability of the FB1 to tap the
call between the telephone instru-
ment and the radio transmission APP
paratus was believed to have been
due to a laxity on the part Of the
Japanese in the final hours in
preparations for the attack. They
