nett. They may have asked me
later from whom I obtained the
units and some acknowledgment
of the receipt of the units may
have been made to these men, or
to either of them.
The simple explanation of the
entire matter is that Mr., Hoffman
and Mr.. Bennett desired to extend
this courtesy to me as friend,
and I in turn made gifts of these
units to certain friends of mine"
Hoffman to Come Here.
Mr.. Hoffman, identified by the
committee as a Milwaukee adveg-
tising man, will be in Washington
when the committee hearings are
resumed tomorrow morning, his
attorney said last night,
The committee had issued SUBJ
poena, but had been unable to 10
cate him. United States marshals
waited In Milwaukee yesterday
afternoon to serve the subpoena.
His attorney, Fred Wright, told
them Mr.. Hoffman was flying in
from an undisclosed place and
would accept the subpoena.
Later Mr.. Wright informed the
marshals that Mr.. Hoffman had
decided to appear voluntarily be-
fore the committee at 10 am. to-
morrow. Mr.. Hoffman was in Mil
waukee for a short time yesterday,
but left the city again, his lawyer
said.
Another possible witness tomor-
row is Maj. Gen. Alden H. Watt,
suspended chief of the Army
Chemical Corps, committee offlci-
ais announced. Gen. Watt was
suspended July 16 pending deter
mination of reports he improperly
furnished personnel data to an un-
authorized person. Maj. Gen. Her
man Feldman, the Quartermaster
General, also was suspended at the
same time by Army Secretary Gray
in connection with the committee
investigation.
No Mention of Payment.
The Mr.. Bennett mentioned In
Gen. Vaughan's statement is pres
ident of the Albert Verley Co., a
Chicago perfumery concern that
employed John Maragon at one
time.
Mr.. Maragen's name has woven
in and out of the five percenter"
inquiry and he has been described
as formerly familiar figure
around the White House and as
friend of Gen. Vaughan.
The freezers came into the pic
ture when Albert Gross, manufac-
turer of the units. told the COM
mittee last Thursday that the
Verley company paid for the ones
he sent to Gen. Vaughan and the
others.
Gen. Vaughan's statement did
not mention the verley company
or say that the freezers were paid
for by that concern. j =

Find Remains of Primitive Man In Wyoming

NEW YORK, (P)-Extensive re- mains of a primitive group of hunters, who roamed the Ameri- can West thousands of years be- fore Christ's birth, have been un- earthed near Cody, Wyo., it was disclosed here today.
 pr. Loren Eiseley of the Uni versity of Pennsylvania said the Wyoming camp site probably dates back to between 5000 and 12,000 years before Christ.
 He called the find one of the most important ever made in con- nection with the culture of the Yuma, the nomadic group who disappeared centuries ago as a cultural unit. They were among the earliest known inhabitants of the new world.
 pr. Eiseley estimated that the ancient camp site covered about 600 suare feet of a terrace over looking Sage Creek, five miles northeast of Cody.
 The valuable deposit of tools, weapons and food remains were preserved through the centuries by dusty desert sands, now cover ing the camp site to depth of about ten feet.
