Paid Levitt Retainer.
35. I have read the testimony
of Mr.. Flanagan and Mr.. Albert
w. Levitt concerning my relation
ship with Mr.. Levitt. I know
nothing whatsoever about Mr..
Lewitt's activities with the Navy
Department on behalf of the Sci
dens. I know nothing whatsoever
about Mr.. Lewitt's alleged activi-
ties as a lobbyist.
When Mr.. Levitt referred the
Selden family to me in the spring
of 1946 I made no agreement di-
rectly or indirectly with him re-
garding any payment to him. In
November, l947. when the Seidens
had succeeded in re-acquiring a
portion of their property and !
had earned a substantial fee for
my assistance in this connection,
Mr.. Levitt came in to see me. He
pointed out that he had sent me
the Seidens matter, and also the
Franklin Shipwrecking Co. matter
in which I had earned a fee. He
told me that he was in business
for himself and that he could be
helpful to me not only in a public
relations capacity but that
through his contacts he would
be able to forward me more valu-
| able pieces of business. I agreed
to put him on a retainer of $500
a month and kept him on for a
period of 10 months.
36. On June 81, 1949, this COM
mittee set out to look for evidence
of bribery, corruption, and improp-
er influence. The committees
counsel and some IA investigators
have had all my files, records, bank
statements. and income tax re-
turns. both personal and business,
including my wife's, for over two
months. If they have found any
evidence of bribery or corruption
I would have heard from the JUS
tice Department about it by this
time. Although an attempt has
been made to show an unduly close
connection between Gen. Watt
and myself and between Gen. Field
man and myself, no attempt has
been made to challenge or dis
prove Gen. Waits testimony to
the effect that I was never able
to get contract for any client Of
mine out of the chemical corps.
The same is true of Gen. Field
mans testimony to the effect that
I was never able to get a contract
for any client of mine from the
quartermaster corps. This would
seem to me to be conclusive evi-
dence of the absence of any i'm
proper influence.
81. I very much regret that the
condition of my health makes it
impossible for me to testify in
person as I am sure I could pre-
sent the foregoing facts more ef-
fectively were I able to do so.

Western civilization faces its great
est challenge from goddess, cyni-
cal. grasping materialistic Marxist
Communism" Navy Secretary Mat

Secretary Matthews told a shirt

"The outcome of the new con-
flict of ideologies depends upon us
We can favorably resolve even that
issue if we so desire and are ready
to pay the price for so precious a
victory"

falter in our search for peace" he
added, mo matter how long the
road or rough the way. We have
learned through the operations o1

First Well Flows Again.
A crowd of about 5000 towns
men in this Western Pennsylvania
oil center, oilmen from all parts
of the country and state officials
saw the original we'll start pump
ing "black gold" again.
The we'll was drilled on Satur-
day, August 81, 1859. by Col. Ed
win L. Drake, a New England train
conductor who turned GILMAN. The
few barrels of petroleum produced
that day founded an industry that
has spread to 26 States. More
than 100000 barrels OF
crude have been produced since
Col. Drake brought in his well.
On the Goth anniversary of Col
brakes feat. his, granddaughter
Mrs. Ross E. Carver, 66, Nashua,
N. H., pressed a button from the
speakers stand that started SIM
ulated reactivation of the original
we'll.
The 691z-foot-deep well has
long since given up its store OF
petroleum but officials deposited
several barrels of crude oil in the
casing for today's reactivation.
While spectators watched inside
the tiny, unpainted, wooden en-
closed engine house of the derrick
a slow flow of crude rose out OF

Text Of Hunts Statement Explaining Activities

has given a completely distorted
picture Of my activities as the
representative of Deering Milliken
Research Trust and of Gen.
Watts alleged interest in the
matter. AS a matter of fact, had
spent Is years of my life in the
textile business and was, for that
reason, unusually we'll qualified to
consult with the management of
DMRT on technical level as we'll
as in its dealings with Govern
ment agencies. Mr.. Flanagan read
into the record portions of num-
|erous letters and memoranda of
telephone conversations. In each
instance he omitted entirely the
major portions which dealt with
technical matters, thus giving the
impression that our efforts on be-
half of DMRT were solely on the
basis of friendship, pull" or Gin
fluence." The fact is that we made
contacts and in most cases ar
ranged conferences for DR.. Nor
man Armitage and his technical
people with not only the Chemical
Corps, but also with the National
Advisory Committee on Aeronaut-
les in Washington and at Langley
Field, Va. with four entirely diff
ferent divisions of the Navy De-
partment. with four different
branches of the Quartermaster
Corps, with the Signal Corps, with
the Ordnance Department, with
the Chief of Research and Devel-
opment of the United States Army,
with the Atomic Energy Commis-
sion and with the Bureau of
Standards. An examination of the
entire Office file in this matter will
give an entirely different impress
sion from the one sought to be
created by Mr.. Flanagan and Mr..
Rogers method of selecting an oc-
casional, isolated sentence here
and there and reading them into
the record.
80. I first met Gen. Harry H.
Vaughan shortly after he became
military aide to the President in
1945. I saw a good deal of him in
my official capacity as liaison Of
flcer for the quartermaster gen.
eral and later as liaison officer for
War Assets Administration. Al
though we have become good
friends socially, I have never, to
the best Of my recollection, asked
Gen. Vaughan to do anything for
me or for a client or friend of
mine more important than get
ting football tickets to the Army
Notre Dame football game. I have
no recollection of his ever asking
me to do anything more important
than get supply of matches for
Ambassador Pauley or a fresh sup
ply for the White House.
