Five Points
Against Atom
Control Bill

Washington, Nov SAP Five
objections to an atomic energy
control bill approved by the House
military committee were cited in a
minority report made public today.
Signed by two committee mem.
bers, Representatives Holifield ID
Calif) and Melvin Price D-nl).
It was only the first Of several ex-
pected before the House tackles
the legislation later this month.
II was not even certain that all
II committee members who APPROX
ed the bill would sign the majority
report.
Holifield and Price declared,
!. The commission proposed for
control of atomic energy develop
ment should be composed of full
time, well paid members. The
committee majority recommended
a ninemember commission paid $50
for each day Of actual work.
2. Commission members should
be removable by the President
whenever he deems II in the ma
tons interest The majority rec
commended that the commissioners
once appointed by the President
and confirmed by the Senate, be al
most discharge proof" except for
gross neglect Of duty.
3 The administrator to supervise
the atomic control program should
be appointed by the President and
serve at his pleasure. The major.
ity favored appointment OF a S15.-
0OO-a.year administrator by the COM
mission itself, with the commission
having authority to remove him
from cause.
4. To emphasize possible peace
time benefits of atomic energy the
bill should specify that the admin
istrator be civilian, not a military
man. The majority would leave
this to the commission.
5. The government should be
the exclusive producer and owner"
Of materials used in atomic energy
development. The bill backed by
the majority would permit the com
mission to license private concerns
to produce, refine or process these
materials.

Army Accused Of
Hiding Pearl
Harbor Data

Washington, Nov. 3-AP-Sena-
tor Brewster (R-Me) declared to-
day that an attempt had been made
to cover up" some Army informa-
ton on the Pearl Harbor disaster.
Brewster told reporters this was
the only conclusion he could draw
from changes he said Army officers
made in previous testimony when
they gave dispositions in an inquiry
by Major Henry c. Clausen in 1914.
Brewster said Clausen was desig.
mated by former Secretary OF War
Stimson to make a new investiga-
ton after an Army board had re-
ported on the sneak attack. The
result. the Maine senator added,
was that several officers altered
their accounts of what happened.
Ferguson (R.Mich.) and Brewster
complained TO the Senate yesterday
that the Pearl Harbor committee,
OF which they are members, had
shut them off from sources of In
formation by rejecting their de-
mand to let them look at govern.

records must come from the COM
mittee rather than individual mem
bers.
The Democrats have a s to 4 ma
jority OF the group.
Brewster asserted that some vital
records were missing. He told a
reporter these included a telegram
from Army files and some radio
monitoring records OF the communi-
cation commission.
Chairman Barley (D-Ky.) said
as far as the committee and its
counsel knows, no papers are miss
ing.
Brewster said the fight to open
the records to individual inspection
will be resumed when the commit.
tee meets again next Wednesday
for further tudy of procedure. Pub
lie hearings will begin November
Is.
He added that the Republicans
want TO find out whether all of
the late President Roosevelt's Sc
cret files bearing on the Pearl Har-
Dor attack are going to be opened
to congressional inquiry.
Brewster said the committee had
received word the heirs of the
late President had agreed to make
some OF the files available.
President Truman previously in
formed the committee he would is
sue any necessary order to open
White House files to the inquiry
