Washington, Sept. 10. UP)-Navy disclosure that it has offered Rear Admiral Husband E. Kimmel an open trial by court martial has not dampened congressional enthusiasm for full dress investigation of the Pearl Harbor disaster.
 Secretary of Navy James V. For restal said in a letter to Chairman David I. Walsh, D., Mass, of the Senate Naval Affairs committee that Kimmel. Navy commander at Pearl Harbor at the time of the sneak Japanese attack on Dec. T, l94l, had been offered an open trial by courC martial.

White Collar Workers
 Strike

Pittsburgh, Sept. 10 - (UP) - Salaried employees of the Westing- house Electric Corp. voted over- whelmingly today to strike imme- diately, rejecting last-minute War Labor Board bid to avert a walk out.
 At mass meeting at the East Pittsburgh high school athletic field, the White Collar" workers shouted down 8 proposal by the VILE to re- view their demands for an incentive bonus similar to that received by other Westinghouse employees.

 Approximately 12,000 salaried workers had voted last Thursday in a National Labor Relations Board election to strike today, but the WLB made its proposal at meet ing with the company and the union yesterday and the union called to- days meetings, which began a half
