DESCRIPTION

Original summary excerpt: The Dies committee was the greatest source of news this week, with thirty new items and three editorials. The majority report of the subcommittee received considerable attention with varying degrees of stress laid upon the release of 23 alleged subversives and "negligence" of WRA. Two papers headlined the fact that Rep. Costello's report failed to recommend Army supervision of the relocation centers. Ray Richards suggested Congress may use Rep. Eberharter's report as a basis for charges that the New Deal "packs" committes investigating its agencies, while a Washington POST editorial claimed the sub-committee had produced a "pipsqueak" but that the minority report was worth reading "in full".
