terday by an unidentified man
about 20 years old,
American and British leaders
conferred far into the night last
night on possible problems arising
from the death of Darlan. who less
than two months ago was deputy
chief of government of the pro-
Axis Vichy regime. With French
authorities they also continued to
investigate the fatal shooting but
there was no announcement OF
progress.
COUNCIL MEETS
The imperial council established
by Darlan December will meet
tomorrow to discuss the political
situation and name a new high
commissioner, although it was pos
sitle that Darlan's successor might
be appointed before the meeting.
Darlan was killed by two shots
from a IS calibre weapon.
The following version of the as
sassination or Darlan was recorded
from Algiers Radio by monitors of
the Federal Communications Com
mission:
Admiral Darlan was assassinated
at the summer palace at $3.50 pm.
! yesterday He died at his post
This expression, used by General
Bergeret in his appeal to the pop
ulation of French Africa, is not
mere figure of speech.
The high commissioner was in
deed struck down by bullets as he
was entering his office in that
simple annex to the svEmmer palace
from which he directed the Fed
Grafton of African France.
The time was approximately
$3.50 pm. A car drove up and OAR
/ Ian stepped out. followed by his
orderly, Major Hourcade. He pro-
ceeded directly to narrow lobby
of Moorish design which provis-
! ionallv houses the office of the high
commisSariat He went to his own
room and as he entered Major
Hourcade withdrew to his own Of

/ TWO SHOTS FIRED
AT that moment, an individual
who had been waiting in the recep-
ton room and who had no doubt
! heard the sound of theadmiral'S
car, fired two shots at the admiral.
| The first che struck the admiral in
the mouth, apparently carsinp a
! Sli9ht injury. The second bullet
struck him in the ribs. Darlan fell
| to the ground The assassin Jump
ed over his body and went into
/ the admirals office
! Major Hourcade, who thus far
had not been able to intervene, so
/ quickly had events taken place, first
| tried TO help the admiral to his feet,
/ and then made after the assassin.
/ The latter turned around and
fired a shot which grazed Hour
cades ear, then almost at point
blank range, he fired another shot
which hit the major in the thigh.
AT the noise of these shots, nom
commissioned officer appeared and
with his help. the assassin was
overpowered. He was man of 20,
armed with a 1885 pistol.
investigations show that he APP
peared at the office in the morn
ing and asked for brief audience,
but did not stay long, and no doubt
merely intended to explore the
grounds. Early in the afternoon he
returned, repeated his request, and
took seat. He then awaited OAR
lan's arrival"

I knew the answer. I turned to my
son and said:
The Japanese are attacking
America
Soon I knew I was right. When
the planes dive bombed I could see
the dirty red circles on their planes.
They were so close I could see the
torpedoes on some of the planes.
Then I saw battleship at Pearl
Harbor explode in flames At the
same time there we're many ex-
plosions over at Hickam Field.
Il climbed to 1900 feet when an
other wave came over and strafed
Rogers Field and shot a burst at
us, but missed. Nobody paid much
attention to us SO we managed to
land and hide in the tall grass as
several more Jap planes strafed the
field again and the road, killing two
small children"
Run to City to Help.
A little more than an hour and a
half OF terror and 1t was over. Mr..
Vitousek and his son ran into Hon
olulu and helped inform and calm
the population. They notified the
radio stations and helped organize
the civilian defenses.
Mr.. Vitousek had the highest
praise for the people and the au-
thorities in Hawaii, saying that
they held up splendidly He is now
chairman of the Citizens Council,
co-ordinating civilian and military
activities. He was reelected to the
Hawaiian House in November. He
expects to be in Washington for
several days.
He said that the disloyal Japs
were imprisoned by pm. Of De-
cember T. but the loyal Japanese
still are free to move and, in fact,
are doing patriotic job in Hawaii
now. He said that from the morn
ing of the Pearl Harbor disaster to
the present time not one act OF
sabotage has occurred in the islands.
I'VE are proud of that record" he
said.

Capital Visitor Tells
Of Being Caught in Air
In Pearl Harbor Raid
R. A. Vitousek, Former
Speaker Of Huwoiion
House,'Eseoped Bullets

High winds over Hawaii on the
brisk, clear morning of December 7,
1941, blew Roy A. Vitousek, one of
the few civilians flying a plane on
that fatal day, right into air laps of
the Japs for some dreadful minutes.
Former Speaker Of the House of
Representatives of the Territory OF
Hawaii and currently Honolulu,s
assistant chief of police, Mr. Vitousek,
is in Washington to appear before
several congressional committees.
A pilot for II years, Mr.. Vitousek
arose early on December T. Every
Sunday he flew over the islands
precisely on schedule. Up at $50
am; wash. dress, breakfast and out
at John Rogers Field by 1870 o'clock,
where the small, two-seater plane
would be warmed up.
Plane Ready.
Pete, the grease monkey, outdid
himself. The plane was ready at
exactly 7:30 am. ard Mr.. Vitousek
and his 17-year-old son, Martin, took
to the air. Ceiling unlimited mostly,
5000 to 1000 feet elsewhere. Visibility
was good A few clouds that always
piled on Mount Kcolau when the
wind was high, but there was Hickam
Field plainly visable-and Pearl Har-
Dor farther away.
The plan was to fly around the
islands by way of Diamond Head.
But the wind was too high, so the
father and son turned back to Rogers
Field, where Mr. Nitousek thought
he might try some stunt flying over
the field-but that high wind
AS we came toward the field"
Mr.. Vitousek recalled, II decided to
land. Another plane cut me off,
though, SO headed maxi toward
the ocean,. We were flying at about
1000 feet when I first noticed the
smoke and flames from what ap-
peared to be an explosion at the
Navy field on Ford Island.
