The executions were carried^put in the courtyard of the governor's palace in Cairo, with a strong force of steel-helmeted police quarding the approaches to the palace.

Pearl Harbor Blaine Is Laid To Roosevelt Retired Admiral Says Administration Failed Os Warning WASHINGTON (INS) — Retired Rear Adm. Husband E. Kimmel, who commanded the Pacific fleet on Dec. 7.194 J, today laid the blame for the devastating surprise attack on Pearl Harbor squarely on the Roosevelt administration. His principal contention in “Admiral Kimmel’s Story'’ to be published in book form next month by the Henry Regenery Co., Chicago, >is that the knockout blow might have been thwarted had he known in advance, as Washington did, of Japan's intent. Kimmel maintained In copyrighted excerpts of the book released today by “U. 8. News & World Report” that the late FDR as well as the Navy Department were negligent in not relaying to him advance warnings of Japan’s imminent attack. “Until this day,’’ he wrote, "I have kqpt silence on the subject . _. . that made such a tragedy possible . now ... 1 deem it my duty to speak out” Kimmel cnargec “lack of action” in forewarning him in time of Japanese intercepts received and decoded in Washington “must have been in accordance with .high political direction." He termed it “impossible to believe" that the war and navy departments should “simultaneously and repeatedly fail in such a crisis." Moreover, Kimmel declared, “no one has ever explained” why his command failed to get the promised bombers and patrol planes jvhen navy secretary Frank Knox warned war secretary Henry L. Stimson 11 months - earlier of a probable attack on Pearl Harbor, Kimmel, who was cleared when a 1|44 naval court of inquiry stamped Knox and his subordinates largely to blame for the disaster, asserted:

“I now believe that the Washington newspaper correspondents and the editors of our leading newspapers were much more accurately informed of the seriousness of thq situation than wese the commanders at Pearl Harbor.“ The veteran Natal commander also said: . "General George C. Marshall’s warning, belatedly dispatched at . . .6:22 a.m. Pearl Harbor time (one hour 33 minutes before the attack) . . . was sent in non-prlor-ity status by commercial circuit when he had on his desk a telephone with a direct connection to the headquarters of the commanding general in Hawaii”. x. Kimmel concluded . . ■ We were unready at Pearl Harbor for reasons set forth ... I cannot excuse those in authority in Washington for what they did. And I do not believe that thousands of mothers and fathers whose sons perished on that tragic seventh day of December, 1941, will excuse them. They will be judged at the bar of history. In my book they must answer on the day of judgment like any other criminal.” Extra Holiday To Federal Workers INDIANAPOUB (INS) —Postal officials said today that the PresiALL FALL Millinery PRICE E.F.GASS STORE
