Son, President | Senator NyeEclares Plane Incident Is Now Clos- ed Affair ‘WASHINGTON, Oct. 8.—Elliott Roosevelt’s negotiations with An- thony H. G. Fokker, airplane manu- facturer, is labelled a closed inci- dent by United States Senator Gerald P. Nye, chairman of the Senate Munitions Committee, but from Texas came word that the young son of President Roosevelt plans to consult New York counsel regarding the statements Fokker made. In one statement Fokker said young Roogevelt contracted to sell military airplanes to Russia for a commission of $500,000. This was strongly denied by young Roosevel’ and the Senate Committee also publicly announced the sale was never made because the price fo: ]the planes was too high. Young Roosevelt said: “I be- lwve my rights as a private citizen of the United States have been in- Xr(nged but he added he had no resentment against Senator Nye, who released the Fokker incident when chargéd he was withholding information. The son of the President further said: “If I were in Senator Nye's position and someone had accused me of withholding facts from the public, I would certainly release whatever sworn matter was in my hands. T have no quarrel with the Senator.” CROMWELL BOUND OVER AT HEARING Floyd Cromwell, charged with lar- ceny, was bound over to the Dis- trict court this morning after a preliminary hearing before U. S. Commissioner Felix Gray and his bail fixed at $2,000. Cromwell is accused of stealing some clothes from the Pablo del Rosa home.
