Pro-British Tendency,

MANILA, Feb. Sit. Gen. Masa-
haru Homma testified at his wal
crimes trial today that he was re-
moved from his Philippine com
mand in August, 1912, because OF
pro- British tendencies and because
he disagreed with ex-Premier Hi

Roughly speaking, there were two
groups in the army" said the de-
fendant, who is charged with re-
sponsibility for the deaths of $1,000
Americans and Filipinos.
Two Jap Factions.
"One was pro-German and the
other pro-British The latter, fos-
tering liberal ideas, was in, great
minority. I was supposed to head
the latter group since I was the
most senior officer. This was so,
believe, because 1 had my training
in England and my association with
the British people gave me a broad
outlook on life"
Homma, testifying for the first
time in his own behalf, said he had
incurred Tojo's disfavor by object
ing to the latter's appointment as
Minister of War. He said that when
TOTO was War Minister, there re-
mained no liberal minded officers or

this and he has disliked me ever

Homma pictured himself as an
army chief who was not informed OF
all incidents under his command, die
not appoint his staff officers and had
no authority to remove them.
1t was obvious the defense was
seeking to absolve him from his
subordinates' actions.

House Seeks Details
OF Navy Plan 10 Give
Small Ships 10 China
By the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
The House Naval Affairs Commit
tee called for details today on the
proposed transfer of some small
warships to China.
1t summoned witnesses from the
Office of Admiral Nimitz, Chief of
Naval Operations, to testify on a
bill introduced by Chairman Vinson
to empower President Truman to
give the ships to China.
Presumably the witnesses will dis
cuss the number of vessels involved.
Types of Ships Limited.
The legislation specifically bars
transfer of battleships, cruisers, air.
craft carriers or destroyers, but
would permit gifts of destroyer
escorts and the various types of
lighter vessels such as landing ships
and patrol craft.
Secretary of the Navy Forrestal,
who recommended the legislation in
letter to Mr.. Vinson, described the
proposed transfer as in the interest
of the United States "as well as con-
sideration of good conscience" be-
cause warships under the Chinese
flag could make "a substantial con-
tribution toward the maintenance of
peace in the Pacific"
Mr.. Vinson added to a reporter
that by giving China the vessels this
Government would "be released
from the responsibility" of moving
surrendered Japanese troops back to
Japan from China and of trans
ferring refugee Chinese nationals
from South China to Manchuria.
Would Allow u. S. Crews.
Chairman Vinson said he didn't
know how many vessels the Navy is
figuring on giving China. His bill
also would allow the assignment of
Navy and Marine officers and en-
listed men to serve on the ships
under the Chinese flag. They would
get pay from the Chinese in addi-
ton to their regular wages.
One of the Naval Committees Re-
publican members, Representative
Bates of Massachusetts,, returned to
Washington yesterday after an ex-
tensive Pacific tour with two COM
mittee colleagues, Representatives
Rivers, Democrat, of South Carolina,
and Fogerty, Democrat, of Rhode
Island.
1--WE discussed this matter with
some of the naval officers studying
this problem out there" Mr.. Bates
told a reporter. I'VE thing it's a
good idea"

Uue ASSOCldLeQ fTeSS.
NUREMBERG, Feb. 5.-Russian
prosecutors are preparing evidence
for the international Military Tri-
bunal, which they say will SUBJ
stantiate Soviet assertions that Gen.
Draja Mihailovich. leader of the
Chetniks and King Peters Yugo-
slav War Minister, actually was
working with the Germans as early
as 1941.
Gen. Mihailovich is a fugitive
from the forces of Marshal Tito,
Premier of the newly established
Yugoslav republic. "'-
Informants close to the Russians
said they would attempt to show
the tribunal that Gen. Mihailovich
used Allied arms and money to help
the Germans and to crush "authen-
tic" Partisan movements.
These sources said the evidence
included documents indicating that
Peters exiled government in Lon
don sanctioned the alleged du-
plicity.
Other evidence was said to have
come from the Yugoslav QuiSling
Gen. Milan Medic, captured by the
Americans at Munich last year and
removed recently to Belgrade for
a treason trial. Medic was said to
have told Allied interrogators that
Hitler and Joachim Won Ribbentrop
former German Foreign Minister
backed him into corner on one
occasion in Berlin in 1943 and
threatened to shoot 1000 hostages
for every German killed by anti
Fascist Yugoslavs.
An informant said Medic, puppet
ruler of Serbia, asserted that he was
confronted by three of Gen. Mihailo-
vich's associates in October, 1941
who demanded cooperation in a
mission to crash Allied partisan
groups in Yugoslavia. Medic was
said to have told questioners that
the plan was to coordinate activities
with Gen. Mihailovichs forces, If
possible to kill Marshal Tito and to
annihilate his followers.
Plot Outlined.
The purported plot, as the Rus
slams are expected to charge, con-
tinues:
To accomplish this, Gen. Mihailo-
vich needed money and arms. Medic
said he agreed to supply 100000 a
month plus 5000 rifles, 3,000,0 ,00C
rounds of ammunition and 500 ma
chine-guns, all obtained from the
Germans.
Germany approves your goal,
Medic was quoted as telling Gen
Mihailovich through the Chetnik
chiefs representatives.
The tribunal today rejected mo-
ton by counsel for the German
general staff to expunge testimony
relative to destruction of the Louv-
ain library and massacre of civilians
in the Ardennes offensive on the
ground that it was "hearsay."
