CHARGES CROSS WASTE IN ARMY
 AIRCRAFT PLAN
Major Who Resigned Meets Contradictions From Another
 Officer.

Chicago, Aug. 1l.-Charges of gross inefficiency and unwarranted eXtravagance were made today by Charles R. Sligh, Grand Rapids. fur- nlture manufacturer, before the con- gresslonal committee inquirlng into affairs of the government bureau of aircraft production here today, were contradicted by John E. Morley, Cleveland attorney, who declared that considering wartime conditions. pro- ductlon of spruce lumber was car. rled out m an efficient manner. Both men Were majors in the air service in connection with production of fir and spruce ln the northwest.
 The testimony of MT. Sligh, who resigned his commission as major in January, 1918 he said because he refused to comply with demandn fo lumber firms, embraced charges that men Knowing nothing of the work were sent to the northwest spruce 1ofests; that unnecessary money was spent in inefficient methods of lum bering, in erection of expensive rail- roads, and in payment of civilians wages to soldiers assigned to lum- per work; that Secretary Baker did not use his influence against I. w. W. disorders which prevented produc- tion, and that lumber leaving logging camps was of poor quality and im- properly inspected
 Admitting that mistakes were made, but that they were unavoid- able since the government was de- nlanding almost impossible quanti- ties of lumber from northwestern pro- ducers, Mir. Morley, who was detailed as counsel for the spruce production corporation, accounted for large am- cunts of money spent, sayng that plans were made in execution of a much longer war.
 The fact that of all spruce and fir produced the allies received 70 per cent and some bearing on the fact that on November II, 1918, only 213 American planes were at the front in France, MT. Morley said. Many planes for American use was manu- factured in foreign countries from American lumber, however, it was brought out.
 The committee left for Seattle, to-
 night, where hearings will be contin- ued later in the week.

 L. T. Bryan proved the truth of the contention Sunday afternoon about 5 o'lcock W hen he ran stripped Ford thru the door of the city hall, and only failed to reach the ser, geant's desk i'll police head quarters because his engine went dead.

 The accident occurred when MT. Bryan was attempting to go west on Barraque street coming from State street the auto began to buck and with actions like a horse with the blind staggers, slammed into the door of the city nall, as above noted. "t
