Public Hearings
On Pearl Harbor
Open Nov. IS
COP Loses Move to
Allow individuals
To Obtain Records
BY J. A. O'LEARY.

The congressional Pearl Har-
bor Investigating Committee de-
cided today to begin public hear
ings November IS, after defeat
ing Republican move to give
individual members authority to
obtain records from Government
agencies.
The issue of individual research
was decided by party vote of 5 to 8.
Voting for the motion to let in
dividuals examine documents were
Senators Ferguson of Michigan and
Brewster of Maine and Representa- =
tive Gearhart of California, all Re-
publicans.
Democrats Oppose Motion.
Voting against the motion were
Chairman Barkley and Senator
George of Georgia and Represent
atives Cooper of Tennessee, Clark
of North Carolina and Murphy of
Pennsylvania, all Democrats.
Chairman Barkley announced the
committee voted unanimously, how
ever, for motion asking President
Truman to modify his executive or
der OF October % to make it clear
that any one in a Government de-
partment is free to volunteer infor-
nation or to testify.
1t was explained that the October
% order was intended to make it
possible for Government officials to
testify, and the committees pur-
pose was merely to have the Presi-
dent amplify the order to make il
clear that no one need be embar-
rassed If they volunteered informa-
ton.
Senator -Barkley said this would
not authorize persons volunteering
to testify to bring records. As a
result OF the defeat of the Republi-
can motion, the question of obtain
ing records is left for determination
by the committee. 1t was felt. Sem
ator Barkley said, that the group
was appointed by the House and
Senate as a committee and that it
has ample authority to authorize a
subcommittee or to authorize an
individual member to examine any
records or documents.
Witnesses Not Yet Named.
The committe was not ready to
reveal the names of the first group
of witnesses. The plan is to hold
daily hearings. ~
The committee also adopted set
OF nine rules of procedure as fol-
lows:
l. All sessions of the committee
at which evidence is received will
be public. at which the press and
the public will be admitted, and
all evidence ogtained by the COM
mittee bearing on the inquiry will

BATAVIA, Nov. Peace was
restored in the Magelang area at
noon today by a truce which fol-

between Indonesian extremists
and British Indian troops, during
which Raj planes again strafed
the Indonesian forces.
Elsewhere in Central and Eastern

night enabled Gurkha infantry ii
reoccupy additional areas in tn
town, which is about 260 mile
southwest OF Batavia, and reduce,

A British commentator said tl1
fighting involved extremists appAr

The British formula for solvin
