and Jack Frye then head of Trans World Airlines which is controlled by Hughes paid one for $850 It was in that month that Roosevelt and Actress Faye Emerson were married Roosevelt said the hotel bills were paid as wedding presents Says He Sought Transfer Roosevelt gave this account of the Giles' letter: During the war he read that a member of the house had contended that he (Elliott Roosevelt) brought "White House influence" to bear in behalf of Hughes He then wrote Gen H R Arnold air corps commander asking for a transfer from the air corps Arnold was ill at the time and he received a letter from Giles Arnold's chief assistant "Giles letter stated that it was completely ridiculous to charge that I had exerted any White House influence to get a contract for Hughes to make planes" Roosevelt declared He added that Giles had written that the contract was let by a board of officers which Giles headed and that this board would assume "full responsibility" for the action Arnold Said Reversed The committee previously has heard testimony that Arnold reversed a decision and ordered 100 planes purchased from Hughes after Roosevelt had recommended that the air corps buy the ship The committee is inquiring into the wartime award of $40000000 in plane contracts to Hughes and the part a recommendation from Roosevelt played in the award of one $22000000 contract In earlier testimony Roosevelt had: 1 Challenged John Meyer publicity man for Hughes to say that Meyer ever "procured" any party girls for him Expense accounts of Meyer introduced in evidence list payments to girls for entertaining army officers government officials and others 2 Declared he knew about a wartime gift of $132nothing worth of nylon stockings by Meyer to Actress Faye Emerson the present Mrs Elliott
