before December how the FBI had
tapped telephone in the japanese
consulate in Honolulu and heard
conversations indicating the Japs
were burning papers.
Before the committee qeconvened
today Senator Lucas, Democrat, of
Illinois, described the December 3
code-burning message as one of the
most important of all the intercepts,
because of its indication that Japan
was on the verge of war.
Continuing to quote from the
Bicknell af1idavit. Gen. Miles said
the colonel stated that the code
burning information was discussed
at an Army staff council meet
ing in Honolulu the morning of
December 6.
In announcing that Gen. Marshall

coded and translated until a week

when it was received for DECIDING.
In discussing the delay in decod-
ing these messages today, Gen.
Miles told the committee:
THE astonishing thing, gentle
men, is not that these messages were
delayed, but that they were able to
do it at all. 1t was a marvellous
piece of work"

for invasion of the neighboring
country. This plan, he added, was
abandoned
Hitler's May, 1888, directive for
the Czech invasion declared that
''it is the job of political leaders to
await or bring about the politically
or militarily suitable moment"
Another order entitled Case Red
and dated June 2, 1888, was the air
force staff plan for war on France
and showed that the Germans ex-
pected France to fight when Czecho-
slovakia was attacked. The docu-
ment added:
Regardless whether France en-
ters the war as a result of Case
Green (attack on Czechoslovakia)
. !. The mass of German offensive
formations will in conjunction. with
the army first, deliver the decisive
blow against Czechoslovakia."
Also disclosed were plans to elm
mate opposition to the invasion in
Hungary and Poland by dismember-
ing CZechoslovakia among the three
countries. Poland got the ,Teschen-
Bohumin area and Hungary took
over the province of Ruthenia after
Hitler finally moved in.
Relating conference between
Hitler and Admiral Nicholas Horthy
regent of Hungary, in midsummer
of 1888, one document showed that
Horthy favored the dismemberment
of the little country but a fellow
minister opposed it.

ing must help in the cooking" Hit

Intentions Clear to Italy.
Italy, also, was aware of the con-
spiracy, according to German For

clared that "Attolico Gtalian Am
bassador Bernardo Attolico) added
that we had made it unmistakably
clear to Italians what our inten-

Protestant Churches
Urged 70 Step Up
Drive for Members

A call on Protestant churches to
bring unaffiliated service men and
women into church membership
was made today by DR.. George
Heaton of Charlotte, N. c., at the
morning session of the evangelism
meeting for Protestant pastors of
the District at Hamline Methodist
Church.
DR.. Heaton declared that more
than 100000 persons are not even
nominal church members. He
pointed out that on the college
campus there was no dynamic
Protestant effort to bring students
into church membership.
A rekindling of the fires of evan
gelism" was urged by DR.. H. H. Nc
Connell of New York as one of the
major objectives of the churches for
1916. DR.. Mcconnell also listed
preparations for crusade having
its emphasis on lay evangelism and
the rediscovery of old methods to
win people to Christ as the other
aims for the coming year.
DR.. John Glenn of Durham, N. c.,
told the meeting that although the
country spends approximately ST.
O00,000,000 year to teach youth the
fundamental of secular culture, it
does not expend a comparable sum
for spiritual training, as a result
the churches have lost the last stu
dent generation, he declared.
DR.. George A Buttrick of the
M dison Avenue Presbyterian
Church, New York, spoke on New
Men for New Era" at the morning
session. He also will speak this aft
ernoon.
Meetings at seven churches
throughout the District will be held
at pm. today with Representative
Ramey, Republican, of Ohio, Sem
ator Wiley, Republican, of Wiscon-
sin and DR.. j. B. Belk, Richmond,
Va, participating. The meetings
will be held at lexington Presby-
terian, Chevy Chase Presbyterian,

Vargas Candidate
Takes Slight Lead
lin Early Returns
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
RIO DE JANEIRO, Dec. 3.-The
first three districts to report in
Brazil's first presidential election
in Is years gave slight lead today
to Gen. Eurico Dutra, who had the
backing of former President Getulio
Vargas.
Press dispatches disclosed that
seven persons were killed in polit-
ical fights yesterday.
The first ballot box opened at
Petropolis, summsr capital of the
state of Rio de Janeiro, gave Gen.
Dutra SO votes. Gen. Eduardo
Comes, his principal opponent
heading the opposition forces, re-
ceived 1856; Yedda Fiuza. backed by
the Communist party, SIS, and Rollin
Telles, Agrarian, 2.
Results Expected in 10 Days.
At Fortaleza, capital of the
northern state of Ceara, the first
box gave Comes 203; Dutra, IS, and
Fiuza, 86.
From Araguay in the state OF
Goyaz the first election totals were
970 for Dutra, ITO for Comes and 80
for Fiuza.
The final results from yesterdays
voting may not be learned for 10
days.
Heavy voting was reported in the
election, in which a congress which
will draft a new constitution was
selected.
A report from Porto Algere, capi-
tai of Rio Grande do Sui, Vargas
home state, said Vargas, e candi-
date for the federal senate, had re-
ceived heavy vote throughout the
state.
1t was apparent from the long
lines Of voters at the polls that
large percentage of the nations
7,613, ,339 registered voters were par
ticipating in what was undoubtedly
the freest election in the history
of Brazil.
Troops, Police Guard Polls.
Army and police forces were sta
toned at the voting booths to insure
order. The tension of the past
weeks appeared to have been re-
placed by holiday atmosphere.
The voters, many of whom had
never cast ballot before, chatted
eaily as they waited their turn.
There was some delay in getting
the voting started in some districts,
but this was only because the cleo
ton officials were out of practice
after not functioning in any form
for IL years.
American Ambassador A. A. Berle,
Jr.. accompanied by his secretary,
toured Rio de Janeiro during the
polling, apparently to observe con-
ditions under which the election
was being carried out.
