Washington, Jan. 31.---Interest of
H. D. Baker, a brother Of Secretary
Baker in the airplane plant at Niles,
O., which had, but lost, government
contracts, came up today before the
senate military committee at its
inquiry,
Secretary Baker ordered the con-
tracts cancelled as soon as he learned
that the aviation service had awarded
them to a. concern in which his broth
er was Interested
Senator Frelinghuyse of New Jer-
sey submitted information he had re-
ceived that the corporation, The En-
gel company, of which H. D. Baker
is president had been over capitalized
with $1,993, 900 of a $4,000 cap
italization representing good will
Col, Deeds of the aviation service
testified that H. d. Baker conferred
with him last June about securing
a contract but had been 'hatly
turned down. because the plant was
not ready to produce. Later Col.
Deeds said. when the plant was
equipped, contracts were given for
airplane parts on a "cost plus basis.
A. J. Engel, vice president of the
company whose original plant was
taken over by the corporation was
an experienced airplane builder, Col.
Deeds added, saying:
They are doing a very good class
of work now"
The profit allowed to the company,
Col. Deeds said, is the same as given
to other contractors.
Chairman Chamberlain asked if
the company had been organized
specially to secure government con-
tracts, but Col. Deeds said he thought
not, as Engel had been making air.

Vanced by the government.

FUEL famine IN
EAST THREATENS
Snow Promised for Sections East
Of Mississippi River

Washington, Jan. 31.-A fuel IA
mine in large sections of the east
was imminent today unless the rail-
road administration found a way to
speed up movements despite snow
and storms which continue to hamper
traffic.
Forecasts give little basis for hope
as snow is promised in most sections
east of the Mississippi, and there are
indications that many plants may be
forced to close for lack of fuel
In response to an urgent appeal
from J. J. Storrow, New England
fuel administrator the shipping board
promised some relief for that Sec
ton by directing coal piers at Hamp-
ton Roads to give right Of way to the
loading Of fifty ships waiting there
to take coal to Boston. The priority
given in New England shipments is
for a II hours period beginning this
morning.
Much colder weather was general
over the country from the Rockies
eastward over the northern districts,
but the snow had stopped falling and
none was expected Friday except To-
caly in the lower lake region and
northern New England.
