Russians Knew Of Jap Plans Stayed Quiet
Washington Aug 9 uP Japan's top investigating officer testified that Russians knew four months before Pearl Harbor of Japan's plan to strike the United States and Britain in the Pacific. Mitsusada Yoshikawa, chief of the special investigating bureau, testified before the House Un-American Activities Committee as it and a Senate subcommittee probed Sorge spy ring activities in Japan. Willoughby testified he sought to unmask members in 1949 but was overruled by military authorities. Yoshikawa cited a October 1941 message to Moscow warning that if America refused compromise by mid October Japan would attack America and the Malay countries. The hearings touched on Soviet agitation to spur Japan to strike south to remove the Japanese threat to Siberia, while listeners examined influence on U.S. Far Eastern policy and the Institute of Pacific Relations.
