Documents naming former Col.
Elliott Roosevelt of the Army Air
Forces as having recommended
the Howard Hughes photo-recon-
naissance plane in August, 1943,
after the Army had dropped
consideration of the plane, were
laid before a Senate War Inves-
tigating subcommittee today.
Senator Ferguson, Republican,
OF Michigan, Chairman of the sub
, committee inouiring into the con-
tracts to Mr. Hughes and Henry j.
Kaiser, developed from War De-
partment files that on August "a,
1943, an order went out to Air Corps
procurement officers that MI.
Hughes experiments with new
type of photo-reconnaissance plane
were no longer to be encouraged.
Mai. Glen Oliver P. Echols, re-
tired, who was stationed at the
Wright Field Air Corps procure
nlent station during the war, was on
the stand at the time, and Senator
Ferguson asked him if that nor
mally would have ended the matter.
When the witness agreed, Senator
Ferguson asked him what happened
thereafter to revive the project.
Complaints on Photo Planes.
Gen Echols replied that, about
that time in 1s43 there was a good
deal of complaint coming in about
the performance of the photo
reconnaissance planes the Army
already was using in the war zones,
particularly in Europe.
After a number of conferences on
the subject, Gen. Echols said he
learned that Col. Roosevelt, who was
in charge of photo-reconnaissance
in Europe, was returning to the
United States to study the matter.
Gen. Echols said Gen. H. H.
Arnold, then chief of the Army Air
Forces, told him Col. Roosevelt was
going to review the overall per-
formance of various photo-recon-
naissance planes.
The witness said he thought Col.
Roosevelt made the inspection tour,
visiting various factories, and, on
his return, reported that of all the
planes he had seen, 1t was his con-
viction the Hughes plane, in modi-
fed form, would be the most suitable
type.
This development in the Hughes
inquiry came as the subcommittee
armed itself with income tax data
for an inquiry into entertainment
expenses of Mr.. Hughes in connec-
tion with wartime plane-building
contracts.
Awaits Hughes Appearance.
It was indicated the data will
not be brought into the committee's S
current hearings on these contracts
until Mr.. Hughes gets on the wit
ness stand. The committee issued
a subpoena late yesterday for his
immediate appearance, but Mr.
Hughes has insisted he will not
appear until next Wednesday.
The Senators hope to put Hughes
and John w. Meyer, the California
plane-builder' publicity man and
party-giver, on the stand together.
Mr.. Meyer has told them in a
closed session of paying girls 500
a night to entertain Government
officials.
Sleepy-eyed and saying he had
not slept for three days, Mr.. Meyer
showed up at the committee hear
ing today after flight from Paris.
He was excused from immediate
testimony.
While Gen. Echols was testifying,
Senator Ferguson placed in the rec

also a good idea to give jars a

make canned peaches a good

the canned fruit keep its fresh

packed in and the fruit processed.
Use 2k tablets of 100 milligram
potency for each quart jar-or S
tablets of the so milligram or 10
of the Is milligram strength.
There are three main reasons
why canned peaches turn dark
thereby losing texture, flavor,

says. Darkness throughout the

cessing or slow cooling. Darkness

Teresa came in, confident and
sure. Suzy ran to her and pulled
on the black skirt of her black
suit and took possession If her
beaver muff.
"Hello, darling. Hello, Alison.
Are your hands clean, Suzy?
Don't touch my blouse. I'll be
down in a minute. I need that
cocktail"
Suzy followed her up the steps,
one at a time, holding her hands
proudly in the muff.
Alison picked up the books an

box and put them behind one of
the love seats. A daily chore,
tidying the living room so that
when Teresa came down for her
cocktail the room was neat and

of lemon rind had to be IN it.

"Why? Why would you?" -,
"Do you think Sam would
marry her again if he knew that
Suzy was not his child?"
Alison stared at her. There
was a tiny mole beside Nicolas
red mouth. Funny, to notice 1t
Nicola nodded. "Now you
know why I have not come back
to Washington. When he first
knew her, I didn't want Philip
to marry Teresa. Then I learned
he'd never be happy if he didn't.
And there are people who say
that such things don't happen
and that there is no such thing
as a mans loving one woman
so much that there is no other
woman for him. But it does hap
pen. Anything can happen.
That's the essence OF all my
living: that anything can hap
pen"
"You were afraid you'd tell

Philip, you mean? Tell him
what?"
Nicola walked toward her and
sat down.
"Teresa's secret. Tell him
that a month before she married
Sam, only a month, she was va
cationing in Georgia with
another man. l was there, too.

ct remember. She was in
Georgia." Alison said family.
Nicolas voice was opening a
closed curtain.
"He was a handsome young
man." Nicola went on. Clean
cut with a military air. Physical
ly he put Philip to shame. When
II came to Washington a month
later, I came to her wedding to
Sam. Edna wrote that Suzy had
been born prematurely and that
poor Teresa went straight from
her desk to the hospital"
Alison's lips were stiff.
"But Sam.
"It's yours. I've given it to
you, Alison. It's a stone in your

Then she called for the break

When they were alone again, she
went and stood by the window.
1t was time for her to go,
Alison thought. You see? An in

wanted company. She wanted to
tell someone she's fallen in love
with Tim and think aloud about
him as I'd like to think aloud
about Sam. She's just being nice
and friendly.

silk curtain.
"Alison, there was once a

I'm not judging her. She
must have been very frightened.
I'm sorry, truly. Your thoughts
are like shooting stars, ending
nowhere. Why, you ask, can't
life be clean and sweet and
simple like the girls down the
street? And she looks at you
and thinks the same of YOU
Alison arose slowly. She felt
numb. She saw Nicola 60 for
her coat and felt it's thin warmth
about her. She must say some
thing; yet there seemed nothing
to say. =,
"There's a race" Nicola said.

It was a day like any other
day. She had been to the busl-
ness school, lunched at a drug
store and returned to the school
for the afternoon session. Com
ing home, she had awakened
Suzy from her nap, dressed her
and then had watched Suzy dash
ahead of her on the street. An
elderly gentleman, very genteel,
had stopped to speak to the child
and Suzy had run after a dog.
An afternoon punctuated with
quite ordinary incidents.
Now they were home and the
late afternoon shadows were
closing in on them.
"What does this say?" Suzy
asked, bringing her a heav.
book.
"What?"
"You're not talking to me ,
"I'm sorry, darling. 1t says,
The beggars are coming tc
town, some in rags, some in
tags, and some in velvet
gowns"
Nursery rhymes going through
her head. Hundreds of them.
The logs glowed on the hearth
and Annette sang in the kitchen
and Suzy's awkward hands fun
bled as they turned the pages.
1t was like every afternoon!
It hadn't happened. This
morning hadn't happened! She
had dreamed it-Nicola Spencer
in a jacket that looked like pink
soap bubbles standing against
the window. The mole beside her
mouth. The graceful, sweep n 8
gestures of her hands. The
things she had said!
She looked at Suzy as If She
had never seen her before. No
Sans child, but a child he loved
because he thought she was his,
She remembered his patience
and concern when Suy had beer
i'll. She had seen him look al
this child he thought was his
with unparalleled love in his
face. 1t was something you &C
cepted but could not understand
unless you had a child of your
own. So much love given to Z
child he thought was his. .
you're not talking to me-
Suzy said.
Alison put her arms around
her and drew her close. I'm
going to cry, she thought. I'm
going to cry for all the love Sam
gave to a child he thought was
I'm sorry again, darling. ]
