Trapped In Falsehood Then why, Ferguson shot back, had Meyers signed an affidavit to the District of Columbia Auto Lii'ense Bureau that the car had been "bought paid for and used by the Aviation Electric Com pany before Jan. 1. 1912.' "Is that your signature?" Fer guson demanded, turning the afi davit over to Meyers. Flushing, Meyers said it was, but that he had signed it as "Just a routine thing." He said "any body would have signed It." "Why would an officer in the United States Army file a false affidavit when there was a ra tioning order coming up?" Fer guson demanded. Meyers repeated that he had signed it simply as a routine mat ter. When Committee -Counsel William Rogers took issue with him on this, Meyers shouted: "I think you would have sign ed it, too, Mr. Rogers." Rogers angrily declared there was no call for such a statement. Ferguson commented that there would not be much point to affi davits if they could be explained away as Meyers was trying to. Trieslo Shift Blame Meyers said he did not know about that, but that he wondered about the value of affidavits in the light of "some of the testi mony that had been taken here." Under a series of questions, Meyers insisted that he had no plans to caslj in on government contracts when he set up Avia tion Electric that it was done solely for the Lamarres. Lamarre, who left a $35 a week job to become head of the con cern, has testified that Meyers got more than $150,000 In profits from the firm's million-dollar. plus aviation subcontracts.
