silent utility man a statement in
which the committee unanimously
agreed to press charges of contempt
of the Senate against him unless
he ceased alleged evasion Of ques-
tons and Speech-making.
Then Senator Schwellenbach Cd,

through pile of records, led Hop
son through the maze of data show
ing how he and j. l. Mango Dor

ciated Securities Corp, ran that

paid the original loan.

Senator Schwellenbach quoted
from the record to show that pri-
vate service companies of Hopson
had net incomes of S3,167 064.01
from 1929 to 1888.
And all of that went to the

Senator Schwellenbach read fig

say that for several years A. G. E.

ports to the government, while it
showed profits in reports to stock
holders.
Hopson explained that reports to
stockholders did not include capital
losses. which were in the reports to
the government.

ers said.
Cant. Smith said he believed the
wreckare was in about the position
described by ranchers who said that
on Thursday night they heard an
airplane falter and crash and then
saw it burn.
At the same time Gov. Leslie A.
Miller of Wyoming wired Gov. Pau
v. McNutt that the plane has been
found. identified and that salvage
crew is on it's way to the scene.
New Hope Is Furnished
Capt. Smith did not report that
the wreckage was burned, and thus
furnished new hope for the safety
of the three persons in the plane.
1t now is considered possible that
the flames the rancher saw may
have been MAGNESIUM flares known
to have been in the plane. At the
same time, it was reported that 1t

ried no supply of food or water.
The Indianapolis plane took of
from Helena, Mont, for Denver
Thursday afternoon and has not
been reported seen since.
Weather maps show that at the
time Of the crash the wind drift OF
the entire United States centered
in the Laramie Peak territory and
that there was a 4000-foot ceiling,
more than 5000 feet lower than the
peak.
Aviators used to flying the terri
tory say it is extremely dangerous,
and the danger presumably was
heightened by the storm that ragged
in the area Thursday night.
Aviator Higley, after hearing the
the story of Lyle Pexton, rancher,
who heard and saw the distressed
plane, said he is positive the wreck
age is that of the Indianapolis
plane and until it can be reached,
all plans for flying over the area
in search were abandoned.
On one slender clew Aviator
Higley based a Pickering hope that
one or more Of the party is alive,
but lost in the unmarked wilderness
of the peak.
Saw Flames Break Out
Rancher Pexton said that after
the plane crashed he saw dot of
light out of the darkness, resem-
bling a flash light. 1t f1uttered for
a second, he said, and then flames
burst out, and he saw the blaze and
the reflections of the ashes for Is
minutes. Then there was darkness.
Also hopeful was the report that
there we're five magnesium flares

leased, would have burned and given
