House Group Plans
To Probe Charges
Behind Nixon Loan
Washington -(UPD- House in
vestigators plan to look Into
charges that the Civil Aero
nautics Board was Influenced
by a $205,000 loan industrial
ist Howard Hughes made to
Vice President Richard M.
Nixon's brother, Donald.
Chairman Jack B. Brooks,
(D-Tex.), of the House govern
ment activities subcommittee
said "serious allegations" had
come to the panel's attention.
He announced plans for the
Inquiry Thursday.
Favorable Decisions Claimed
Brooks said it had been
reported that Trans World
Airlines, owned by the Hughes
Tool Co., was granted favor
able CAB decisions following
the 1056 loan. He said Indica
tions were that the GOP presi
dential nominee was consult
ed on every step of the loan.
1 Subcommittee aide Edward
C. Brooks, brother of the
chairman, said work already
has started on the inquiry.
But he said it would be "prac
tically impossible" to get the
committee together for a hear
ing until after the elections
next Tuesday.
The original report of the
loan was made by syndicated
columnist Drew Pearson.
Pearson said Important mat
ters of the Hughes companies
which were before the federal
government got better treat
ment after the loan.
Called Nonsense
The vice president's cam
paign manager, Robert N.
Finch, snld Pearson's story
"alleges that a loan was made
to Don Nixon and that In
some way the vice president
was Implicated and that
Hughes benefited. That Is ab
solute nonsense."

Scannelt for Oht Ally. Comm.,
Mary Margaret Mullen, Sec, Campbell Rd., Madford, Ore.
"Before Orcgonians cast
their ballots in this election,
my opponent should explain
what she has done to cause
such personal bitterness to
ward her on the part of top
members of the dregon con
gressional delegation of her
own party," he said.
Smith said Sen. Wayne
Morse, (D-Ore.), "has made
several campaign talks in
Oregon endorsing the entire
Democratic slate but any per
sonal mention of my oppon
ent was conspicuously miss
ing from his press releases."
Blaine Whipple, executive
secretary of the Democratic
party of Oregon, took issue
with Smith and said Morse
had endorsed Mrs. Neuberger
by name in speeches through
out the state and that he did
so last Saturday in Portland.
In Southern Oregon, Rep.
Charles O. Porter, (D-Ore.),
said he has turned over last-
minute "smear ads" for his
Republican opponent, State
Sen. Edwin Durno, to the Fair
Campaign Practices Commit
tee. He said the committee has
one-minute television spots
available for use which were
made by Gov. Nelson Rocke
feller of New York and Demo
cratic Sen. Estes Kefauver of
Tennessee.
Funds Said Lacking
Porter said the ads stated,
"Why does Porter encourage
Castro?" Porter said "We do
not have funds to answer all
of these smears but can only
hope that the voters will see
them for what they are."
In the other congressional
races Rep. Al Ullman, (D-

Norblad, (R-Ore.), is opposed

Edith Green, (D-Ore.), faces
Republican Wallace Lee.
The slate office races match
incumbent Secretary of State
Howell Appling, Republican,
against Monroe Sweetland; in
cumbent State Treasurer How
ard Belton against Democratic
State Sen. Ward Cook, and in
cumbent Attorney General
Robert Thornton, Democrat,
against Slate Sen. Carl Fran
cis, (R-Dayton). Appling and
Belton are appointees of Gov.
Mark Hatfield.
Other Developments
... Sweetland went on tele
vision Thursday night to de
nounce as "false and malic
ious" material he said was
distributed about him and
which is under investigation
by the Multnomah county dis
trict attorney.
. . . The battle over the bill
board measure continued.
Rudie Wilhelm Jr., Portland,
chairman of the Highway Pro
tection Committee, said a re
cent mail handout against the
measure contained "misstate
ments." Jack Schnaidt, officer
in the Oregon Council of Out

measure could cost taxpayers
millions of dollars to put the

the murder of a circuit judge and his wife in ocean waters

Former Judge Held
In Five-Year-Old
Florida Mystery
Chattanooga, Ten n .- IUPII -A
former judge with a mysteri
ous past walked into a care
fully laid police trap Thurs
day night and was charged
with murder in the disappear
ance five years ago of a prom
inent Florida judge and his
wife.
Former West Palm Beach,
Fla., City Judge Joseph A.
Peel Jr., 36, was arrested 40
minutes after he checked into
the Patton hotel here after a
flight from Charlotte, N.C.
Florida officers revealed
several hours later that mur
der warrants had been sworn
out Oct. 31 charging Peel and
long-time criminal Floyd A.
(Lucky) Holzapfel,-36, with
the June 15, 1955, murder of
Circuit Judge and Mrs. C. E.
Chillingsworth of West Palm
Beach. Holzapfel has been in
jail at West Palm Beach
since early last month await
ing trial on another murder
charge.
Peel and his partner in a
bankrupt construction com
pany, James Donald Miles, 31,
had been free under $25,000
bond on charges of conspiring
to murder Holzapfel. But
State Attorney Phil O'Con
nell of West Palm Beach, said
Miles turned state's evidence
and helped lay the trap for
Peel.
Miles checked in at the ho
tel Wednesday. When Peel ar
rived Thursday night he was
given a room on the same
floor. Officers nabbed him in
the hotel corridor and said he
"had an expression of com
plete surprise when arrested."

iff John F. Kirk aided in the
arrest and planned to return
Peel to Florida to face trial.
The Chillingsworth disap
pearance has been the most
baffling case 'in the annals of
Florida crime.
The judge, 58, and his wife,
Marjorie, 57, left a dinner par
ty about 9:30 p.m. the night
of June 14, 1955, and return
ed to their swank beach front
home at Manalapan about 11
miles south of Palm Beach
They apparently each drank
a glass of orange juice and
went to bed.
When the judge failed to
appear for a 10 a.m. hearing
the following morning, offi
cers went to his home and
found an outdoor spotlight
broken and drops of blood on
the boardwalk leading to the
beach. Nothing in the house
had been disturbed. There
were no other clues.
Last month Palm Beach po
lice said undercover agents
had made a tape recording of
a confession which they at
tributed to Holzapfel, a man
with a' 15-year criminal rec
ord. They said the voice on
the recording told of being
hired to kill the judge but
that the killing of his wife
had not been planned.
, The recorded voice told of
putting the judge and his
wife in 'a small boat, taking
them several miles out to sea
weighting them with chain
and then shoving them over
board. - c
