WASHINGTON, Feb. 21 OJ.R) Walter Brown, postmaster gen
eral under former President Hoover, told the senate air mail inves
tigating committee today that he still had In his possession "some
letters" which he removed from the postof f ice department when
leaving office on March 4, 1933, and offered to examine his personal
files to determine tne exact number.
Responding to questions by Chairman Hugo L. Black, the former
cabinet officer said the letters which be had not returned to Post-!
master General James A. Farley were "extra copies I thought would
be good things to have for my protection." I
Included in the correspondence which Brown said he removed and 1
did not return were copies of letters written to senate majority
leader Joseph T. Robinson and Chairman James M. Mead of the
house postoffice committee in February 1933, explaining the status
at that time of airmail contracts let in the Hoover administration.

How many nave you that you did
not return?" asked Black.
I can't answer that," Brown said.
"but I'll be glad to look through my
files and see how many. I took only
additional copies of letters I thought
would be good things to have for my
own protection,"
Several weeks ago Brown came to
Washington and gave Farley a sheaf
of letters which he said inadvertently
bad been placed in his private files
when he left the department.
Postoffice employes had testified
before the committee earlier that of
ficial files fn the department had been
burned a few days before March 4,
last year.
Brown again denied charges of tt
legality in mail contract awards In
his administration. Black attempted
to show that all air lines receiving
contracts from Brown were controll
ed by four major holding companies.
I can't be drawn into an argument
of that kind," Brown said, and named
several companies he said were "in
dependent mail operators.
