BAKER MAY ORDER TRIAL O WASHINGTON, Nov, 1.--Secre tary of War Baker was today consid ering the recomniendation of Charles RB. Hughes, that the war department consider the advisability of court martialing Col er, ¢ The Hughes report of the investi ation into the aircraft situation, placed In Rakerg.hands late yester day, was studied last night. Baker's decision as to court-martial is expect ed soon. The report was generally viewed here as milder in its conclusions than the senate air probe findings. Hughes held Deeds was guilty of nothing criminal, but considered he had done things undecoming an offi eer in giving war department data to men with whom he was formerly associated, and that he had advised the committee on public information incorrectly as to the alr program. Accuses Three Officers ‘At the same time, Hughes recom: | mended criminal action against Lieut. Col. J. G. Vincent, former Packard Motor Car Co. vice presi dent; Lieut. Col. G. W. Mixter and Second Lieut. Samuel B, Vrooman, dr., for alleged violation of statutes providing that government officials shall not have business interests in concerns with which they have offi- cial contact. A sum of $24,000,000 was found to have been lost thru abandonment of two types of airplanes and failing to_ do salvaging. In answer to claims that the orig inal vast appropriations had been squandered. Hughes pointed out that | the expenditures and commitments up to October 1 were less than the original grant. “The defective organization of the work of aircraft proguction and the) To Relieve Catarrh, Catarrhal Deafness And Head Noises Persons suffering from catarrhal deatn or who are growing hard caring and. ave head noises, sin be glad to know that this dis-/| affitetion can usually be Sercasctully treated at home by an internal medicine th. my in- stances has effected banplece Tellet have failed. arcely hear had their hearing restored to such an extent that the tick of a watch was plainly audible seven or t inches away from elther ear. fore, If you know of someone ho is troubled with head noises or catarrhal deafness, cut out this formula and hand it to them, and you may have been the means of saving some poor sufferer, perhaps. — total deafness, The prescrip- tion can be repared at home, and is Deeds, aircraft lead: | F OFFICERS: serious lack of competent direction of that work by responsible officers of the signal corps,” said the report, “to which the delays and waste were chiefly due, were matters for admin istrative correction thru unification of effort under competent control,” Hughes held the reorganization un der John D, Ryan has caused mark: ed improvement.

Hughes, himself, pointed out that manufac turers figured on a liberal profit margin, and that there was small incentive to economize under the cost accounting system. Hughes found that there had been some bad organization work and that In some cases contracts were given to poorly equipped plants over well equipped ones, The report showed that contracts withdrawn from the Engel Aircraft | Co. were reawarded after Secretary of War Baker's brother had resigned from the concern.
