the Bureau of Labor in the Interior

How many prisoners have died in
German camps, he said, is not
known definitely because the Ger
man Army administrative system
has collapsed in recent weeks and
complete records are not available.
1t is possible, he said in response
to questioning, that American SOL
diers listed as missing in action
may be prisoners in Germany but
have not been reported because OF
administrative difficulties.
Because Germans, for the most

Atrocities Studied.

far the inquiry would go into re-
cent disclosures of Nazi atrocities
These now are being studied at first
hand by a number of lawmakers,
publishers and editors flown to Ger
many for that purpose at the re-
quest of Gen. Eisenhower.
Committee members said many
people presumably are not aware of
the Geneva Convention and this
country's determination to adhere
to it.
Should the current investigation
disclose that the United States has
been more lenient than the inter-
national agreement requires, the
committee probably will recommend
a tightening of regulations.

Py the Associated Press.
White House reporters were asked
today to give President Truman "the
same protection" under the volun-
tary censorship code that was ac-
corded the late President Roosevelt.
The request was made by Press
Secretary Jonathan Daniels as re-
suit of premature reports of Mr..
Truman's visit to the Pentagon yes

Mr.. Daniels said one news service
(not the Associated Press) sent out
a story on the Presidents trip to
the Pentagon for a conference with
top military leaders before Mr.. Tru-
man arrived there, and before an
announcement had been authorized.
Under the security code. he stated,
the Presidents movements should
not be reported until he has re-
turned to the White House-unless
the White House authorizes prior
disclosure.
At the Presidents suggestion, a
representative from each of the
three wire services accompanied the
Truman party on the brief auto
mobile trip across the Potomac yes
