SAN PEDRO, Calf. Sept. al
Howard Hughes has disclosed
that a break Of an earth dixie at
the harbor has caused damage
of more than $5 million to his
gigantic wooden flying boat, the
worlds largest airplane.
Mr.. Hughes issued a statement
yesterday saying the large earth
dixie on adjacent property burst
last Friday, flooding the hangar
of the eight-engine plane with
thousands of tons of mud silt
and water.
The flooding lifted the huge
plywood plane from its drydock
and crushed it against adjacent
structures and the hangar. Mr..
Hughes and his engineers said
it would take more than a year
to repair the damage.
The flying boat has been under
experimental construction for
more than 10 years under Gov
ernment contract. 1t has a wing
span Of 800 feet and is 219 feet
long. The plane weighs more
than 200 tons and its tail is as
tall as a two-story building. It
is designed for a passenger ca
pacity of TOO.
The earth dixie, which broke
during the night hours. had
been constructed by dredging
company to retain material
pumped from the harbor bot
tom. The Hughes announce
ment said this operation had
created a large artificial lake
higher than the surrounding
area.
The wings, hull, mechanical
control system and other parts

Hughes Plane Crushed in Dixie
Break; Damage Is SIS Million

Of the plane were damaged. Mr..
Hughes said that before the ac-
cident the plane was undergoing
final inspections in preparation
for taxi and fight tests next
month.
On November 2, 1947, the
plane was taken out of the har-
Dor by Mr.. Hughes and flown
in a test for about mile at
an altitude of 70 feet. It has
not been flown since. Originally
the construction was an $18
million Government project, but
Mr.. Hughes says he has put $23
million of his own money into
the plane 1t is owned by the
Reconstruction Finance Corp,
which has given Mr.. Hughes
several extensions of compile

Delay Decision In
State Radar Arrest
CONTINUED from first page)

CONTINUED from first page)
State Police employing a radar
speed meter.
Ernest V. Keith, attorney for
Moffitt. who was driving a taxicab
when arrested, contends that the
arrest was improper and that his
clients conviction was against the
law and against the weight of the
evidence Further. he maintains,
the arrest was made by a police
officer who did not view" the
alleged offense. and argued that
the court erred in permitting the
jury to hear testimony of a radar
expert before determining the ad-
instability of radar equipment as
evidence.
Mr.. Keith contends, too, that
highly-technical equipment. such
as radar, subject to delicate inter
ference, of recent development,
and not yet perfected, does not
come within the realm of best
evidence. Additionally. he mention
ed the lack of knowledge of cleo
tronics on the part of the arrest
ing officers.
The defense argument also took
exceptions to Judge Terry's charge
to the jury, in connection with
which it stressed that the arrest
ing officer did not actually see the
commission of the alleged offense
as there was a slight curve be-
tween him and the police radaT
car.
Deputy Atty. Gen. Henry ].
Milford chronicle., 1953-09-11

Ridgely, who prosecuted the case,
cited various precedents in support
of a contention that an officer can
take into consideration what is
transmitted 10 him in cOmmunica-
tiOns between officers, together
with an officers observation and
knowledge of a series of acts con-
stituting an Offense. He maintained
that the defendants arrest and
convictiOn>On the evidence supplied
by radar was within the law. He
advised that he will list legal au-
thOrities for consideration of the
court in support of his motion
that Mr.. Keith's new trial motion,
be dismissed
Mr.. Ridgely cOntended in the
trial of the case that a radar speed
meter, if properly operated, will
record the speed of moving We
hicle with a much less margin of
error than a cOmmOnly-recogniZed
speedOmeteT. The defense at that
time objected to any testimony
concerning the operation of the
Idudr speed meter or It's admlS-
sion into evidence.
The court admitted the radar
subject to the jury's determination
of its accuracy in measuring the
speed of a moving vehicle, pointing
out to the jurors that they had to
be satisfied beyond a reasonable
doubt that the speed meter used
! in the case was functiOning prop
erly, was properly operated at the
time, and was an accurate record
er of speed, and, further, that its
accuracy had been properly tested
within a reasonable time from the
date of it's use.
At the trial, a radar expert
James L. Barker, called by the
state, testified to the construction
operation, and purposes of the ra.
dar speed meter, it's margin of er
rOr if properly functioning, anC
ways of testing its accuracy. He
used the speed meter employed il
the MOffit arrest as the subject o.
his explanation, with the court ad
mitting the meter into evidence
subject to the jury's determination
as to its accuracy in measurinl
the speed of the defendants tax
under all the circumstances.

He cannot always have his own

one per cent kill his attempts" the
commissioner went on.
Another instance of purchases
without submitting bids was men
toned by Mrs. Campbell in the
$4,000 in beef bought by Mr.. Bry-
an more than a year ago.
AT that time, when he was ques-
toned on this, he promised never

doing the same thing. So l do not
believe that even if he promised to
work with a business manager
that he would change" Mrs. Camp

had only the best intentions of the
colony at heart, and his chief
drawback is his wish for complete
authority. He is stubborn, and has
continued to conduct colony bust
ness without board approval. But
if he is the man for the place. the
Governor should get a new board. ."
Mrs. Campbell admitted also that
perhaps he had too much author
ity to start with. There should be
some laws changed to either give
the superintendent full power, or
make it clear just what policies
the board decides"
Among the facts brought out in
the weeks since Mr. Bryan's resig-
nation have been his alleged dis
regard of bids in purchasing sup
plies for the colony, and some bus
mess transactions completed with
out board approval.
Nothing for Himself
"Mr. Bryan never made a cent
for himself; I'm sure of that" Mrs
Campbell said. HE even refused
a salary raise, but, on the other
hand, l doubt if his business prac-
tices really saved any money for
the colony"
There are thousands of Delawar-
cans who would be better board
members than we are, but the diff
ficulty is finding those really in
terested in serving" Mrs. Camp
bell continued
The Laurel commissioner, Z
Democratic member of the board
asserted there's always been some
kind of political influence at Stock.
ley. And l know for a fact thai
Mr.. Bryan has been needed fol
months ever since he came, by bus
inessmen and some politicians who
warned him of their influence il
the legislature. l admit that if he
were not a strong man, if he haC
been a weakling, he would nevel
have stayed under such pressure.
Hits Trading SurpluSeS'
One of the traditions" at Stock
ley which Mrs. Campbell reported
she had tried to have changed il
the recent General Assembly i,
that of what she called trading
surpluses."
This, she explained, consists o
sending unneeded supplies of al
most any kind to a liasiOn person
who sells the goods for the agency
sends the money back to the insti
tuition, and it is then used in tn,
general operating fund.
Apparently Delaware likes thi
custom because it's been going Oh
for years, long before Mr.. Brya1
came, and since he was hired,
Mrs. Campbell declared.
These goods, even though pur
chased by the colony, actually be
long to the state, and it's not righ
for them to be sold in this man
ner. That money should go bac
to the state, but because they
don't want it returned, the go-be
tween method of selling has bee
followed for years"
The suggestion Of a busines
manager at Stockley. the "cond
ton which Mr.. Bryan refused I
accept last week. would not hay
hurt the children a bit" Mr.
Campbell commented.

climbed over the rear of the pilots

seats as the plane neared the water.
Captain Chamberlain was flying
Chambers to Washington to enable
the later to make connection with
a plane for Minneapolis where his
father had just died.
Lieutenant Governor Rollins had
planned to make the trip to Wash

of the death of Chambers father.
Chamberlain had been with the
