Hughes Case Reopens
AS Senator's Question
Witnesses in Secret
BY the Associoisd Press

Senate investigators yesterday Sc
cretly resumed an inquiry into $40
900. 900 worth of wartime airplane
contracts awarded to Howard Hughes,
Hollywood millionaire.
Two closed door sessions were held
it was learned, to question witnesses
who may testify publicly at hear
ing scheduled to reopen November IT.
Chairman Ferguson and attorneys
and Investigators for a War Investi-
eating subcommittee, made special
efforts to avoid attention. They
borrowed room from the Senate
Judiciary Committee and instructed
employees there to keep quiet. And
there was no leak on names. Of per-
sons they quizzed
Senators Cain, Republican, OF
Washington and McGrath, Demo-
crat, of Rhode Island, sat in on the
sessions along with William Rogers,
chief committee counsel and Fran
els Flanagan, counsel specializing
on the Hughes inquiry. .3.
In Contrast to Earlier Hearings.
These quiet meetings were in
strong contrast to the dramatic
hearings abruptly recessed last Aug
ust II by Senator Ferguson after
partial questioning of Mr.. Hughes
and his heavy-spending public re-
lations man, John w. Meyer.
It was during these hearings that:
l. Mr.. Hughes testified that Chair
man Brewster of the full War In
vestigating Committee offered to call
off the inquiry If Mr. Hughes would
merge Transworld Airlines, which he
controls, with Pan American Air.
ways and would support a single
overseas American airline.
2. Senator Brewster denied it under
oath.
g. Mr.. Meyer was questioned about
spending thousands on Washington
officials and prominent figures, in
cluding Elliott Roosevelt, son of the
late President and an Air Forces
general during the war.
4. Mr.. Roosevelt testified he was
overseas when some OF the enter
tainment items under his name were
listed on the Meyer expenses &C
count.
S. Mr.. Hughes predicted the hear
ings never would be resumed.
New Meetings Are Expected.
At the time Senator Ferguson
stopped them, Mr.. Meyer had disap-
peared. The subpoena under which
he had appeared had expired. A new
one since has been served on him.
He and Mr.. Hughes have been in
structed to be here November II.
Additional preliminary meetings
may be held next week before Sena-
tor Ferguson leaves with other men,
bers of the Senate Appropriations
Committee on an inspection trip of
Europe.
The Hughes probe deals with an
$4,000, 900 contract to produce the
worlds largest airplane. a plywood
flying boat which has not yet been in
the air, and $22, 1000 900 contract for
experimental models of a speedy

their organization, have picked Sen
ator Taft as their first choice fol
the Presidential nomination. Shoule
Senator Taft pull the rug from
under their feet by declining to
run, they would have to make q
second choice - probably Senator
Bricker of Ohio-or throw the Ohio
primary open to other than Ohio
candidates for Ohio's big delegation
to the Republican National Con-
vention next June. The psychology
of second choice Ohio Republican
would be bad, so bad that Senator
Bricker would have no chance fol
the nomination.
Answering the second half of the
question: refusal by Senator Taft

ThirC, there is no reason to be-
lieve that Senator Taft desires tc
leave the field wide open to Gov
Dewey. Quite the contrary. HI
and Gov. Dewey have not seen eye
to eye on a number Of important
questions.
Many Afraid He Would Lose.
A withdrawal of Senator Taft
from the race would leave, at least
temporarily, chaotic situation
There seems no one else to fill the
big gap he would cause.
The one fly in the ointment-the
one discouraging factor which Sen
ator Taft has encountered in his
travels-is constantly reiterated
statement by Republicans that they
do not believe he could win if nomi-
mated. Even some of his friends
have admitted that is the talk
among the rank and file of the party
In the West. And the Republicans
are determined to make as sure as
possible this time they have q can
didate with whom they can win.
They have been disappointed too
many times.

group will be able to beat the de-
laying motion.
If they do, however, a score OF
amendments remains to be acted
on. These include a proposal by
Senator Lucas, Democrat, of Il
linois to substitute an entirely diff
ferent set of tax reductions efec-
tive next January l, rather than

proved by the Finance Committee.

Senator Lucas proposes increas-
ing personal exemptions from $500
to $500, giving husbands and wives
in all states the right to split their
income for tax purposes, and trim
ming percentage points off each
surtax rate.
The committee bill would grant
reductions ranging from 80 per cent
to- los per cent over a full years
operation. However, If made ef-
fective at mid-year, the reductions
for 1947 would run from Is per cent
to 5.25 per cent, or half full years
benefits.
In offering his postponement mo-
tion Senator George argued that by
June 10 Congress will have estab-
lished a pattern of action on appro-
priations, and hence will be able to
tell better than now whether tax
cut is warranted.

 There have been than a few intimatons from Washington that of the Republicans who are most to cut expenditures and then cut taxes look with longing eye at an item in the Presidents budget labeled international Affairs and Finance It is a large item. amounting to s35l0000000. And this fig ure by coincidence just about big enough to the cost of most of the ax-reduction plans that have been proposed in Congress What could be more sim pie?

NO LIBERALS WANTED

Again they could not have been blind to political gratitude when they sent s3,Ooo all the way to Idaho, Washington and Montana to help Senators Dworshak, Cain and Ecton.
 Perhaps even more significant was the help which Taft's Ohio Committee carefully gave fifty can didates to the House of Repre- sentatives.
 Members of the House are not to be sneezed at when it comes to counting ballots in national con- vention. And even if they aren't elected to Congress. they continue to have potent influence with the political machines back home.
 No liberal Republicans were among those receiving aid from the Taft cohorts. Most were moss backed reactionaries or isolationists such as Hartley of New Jersey and the Chicago Tribunes pet Con- gressman, Fred BusA} of Chicago, both of whom got $500 handouts. And in far-ofl Washington State, Taft money totalling s2,l00 was carefully placed behind fIcmer Jones, Thor Tollesson and Fred Norman who defeated democratic liberals De Lacy, Coffee and Sav- age.
 Note - Most interesting probe Congress could make from a poli- tical viewpoint would be on the amounts already being spent by Republican presidential candidates in the South That is where Re- publican delegates can and are sought at the rate of S5,000 for an entire state It is also where Sen- ator TaftS father had almost 100 percent support in 1912 when Ted dy Roosevelt finally holted the con- vention which nominated Taft and formed the Bull Moose ticket.
