Solons Investigates Tule Lake Center

TULE LAKE, Calif., Nov. 8.--(AP)--Representative Claire Engle, Democrat, California, arrived here today to investigate personally the background of rebellions at the Tule Lake Segregation Center--rebellions which the Army put down with a show of steel.

The Army moved in with tanks, machine guns, armored cars and ready bayonets last week at the request of the War Relocation Administration after internees had beaten some civilian employes, held several W.R.A. officials virtual prisoners. There are about 16,000 disloyal Japanese in the camp.

The congressman also will participate in a State Senate committee investigation which opened today.

A sub-committee of the House committee on un-American activities will leave Washington shortly for Tule Lake, to investigate reports that Japanese interned there had planned to burn a building in which they were holding 150 civilian employes.
