May 22.-There will De no controversy in the Senate over the military committees war inquiry plans to which President Wilson objected and the department of justice investf- Eation of aircraft production directed by Charles E. Hughes will proceed without having its path crossed by Congress.
 Developments came quickly today in a situation which had threatened an open fight on the floor of the Senate, and in which administration leaders saw the possibility of two simulta- neous inquiries into all phases of the governments aviation programme.
