19 (UP) The sneak attack on Pearl Harbor was not in Japans pre-war plans and would have been called off if the United States made certain concessions, it was disclosed today. This information was contained in records submitted to the Congressional Pearl Harbor Investigating Commitle by Rear Admiral T. B. Inglis, Chief of U. S.

Naval Intelligence. It was based on statements by Jap naval officers in response questionnaire prepared by the investigation section of Gen. Douglas Mac-Arthur's occupation forces in Tokjo.

The committee, upon which both Rickey and AlacPhail served In an advisory capacity, reported that there Is "no difference between the potential ability of Negro and white youths. The only equitable solution to -this problem Is that individuals be treated alike and with relation to their abilities throughout organized baseball, the report stated.

"How the process of integration is to be consummated is a problem for each club to undertake individually, but a problem which can no longer.be deferred or avoided. The Brooklyn Dodgers were com-, mended by the committee for their action in signing 26-year-old Jackie'l Robinson, Negro shortstop from Kansas City of the Negro American Lcagye, for a position on their Montreal Farm Club.
