Yet the Investigating committee's
securities and exchange commission
division Is seriously thinking of ask
ing Hilton Moore, Morgan, Stanley's
well known railroad expert, to head
up the Investment banking section
of the committee staff. Chairman
William O. Douglas of the SEC. who
Is usually thought of In Wall street
as an enemy of the whole Morgan

Wound Serious, Has 50-50
Chance Companion Ad
mits Tragic Error, State
Police Say.
Mistaken for a deer and acci
dentally shot through the back with
a 30-30 calibre rifle. Private Clark
Johnson. 32, of the Oregon state
police lies seriously Injured in Com
munity hospital. He has at least a
50-60 chance to recover, his attend
ing physician said today.
The bullet was fired, state police
said, by William T. Coy of 504 Ham
ilton street, while the two and Mr.
Coy's brother, Edward N. Coy of
1118 West 11th street, were hunting
In the heavily-timbered and brushy
area about two mllea south of Fish
lake.
The hunting accident, second of
the year In Jackson county, occurred
between 9 and 9:30 a.m. yesterday.
Following the mishap, the Coy broth
ers rendeltd what first aid they
could, then carried the Injured state
policeman two miles to their camp
and automobile and from there rush
ed him to the hospital here, arriving
shortly after 3 o'clock yesterday
afternoon.
Private Johnson spent a restful
night and Is doing remarkably well,
considering the seriousness of his
Injury, his physician stated today.
The aoft-nosed bullet entered the
left side of his back, pierced his
kidney, continued on up through
his left lung and came out his chest.
Two ribs were shattered. The bullet
barely missed the policeman's spinal
cord, striking of which would have
meant Instant death, the doctor
said. No large blood vessels weie
pierced,- the - physician explained,
which saved him from bleeding to
death. The policeman Is conscious
and In good spirits, his doctor said.
State police quoted Mr. Coy as
saying: "I was certain I was shoot
ing at a buck with forked horns."
Mr. Coy Is broken-hearted over the
accident, he and the state police
man being close friends.
The Coy brothers and Pilvate
Johnson had left their camp near
Fish lake shortly after sunrise, and
had moved southward through the
hesvy timber and brushy terrain. A
short time before the accident, they
had "Jumped" a deer, and had spiead
out about 76 yards apart to beat
the brush, tt Is believed by state
police that Private Johnson, working
his way through the brush, forged
slightly ahead of his two compan
ions. Mr. Coy was between 76 and
100 yards from the state policeman
when he fired the shot, state police
said.
After the accident, the policeman
was given all the first aid possible
by the Coy brothers. Bleeding of
the wound was checked to some ex
tent, snd he was then carried back
to camp, the trip taking severs!
hours because of the rough country
side. The two Coy brothers snd Mrs.
William T. Coy had left Medford
Sunday and established the camp
