The engine was in the tub Around top and bottom rims of the tub were four-bladed propellers which revolved in opposite directions. The helicopter-type was reported by John W. Ganz, a mechanic to have flown briefly. Ganz said he helped Caldwell build the plane in 1935 and 1936. Caldwell disappeared nine years- after getting in trouble with Maryland state authorities who thought his money-raising activities as unconventional as his inventions.

Stock Sales Halted The authorities had ordered him to stop selling any more stock in his enterprise, "Gray Goose Airways Inc." Previously, he had been ordered to stop Belling stock in New Jersey and New York. Caldwell, who would be about 70 today, has not been heard of since. Air force investigators conceded he could have moved to some the victims suffered from sore throats and burning sensations in their mouths, usual symptoms Washington, Aug. 20 (UP) After thinking it over for a day, the air force decided today that two strange old craft found in a Maryland barn "have absolutely no connection with the reported phenomena of flying saucers." Several official spokesmen for the air force had hemmed and hawed about the discovery since the experimental craft were found.

Then shortly after noon today, the air force released this bare statement: "The air force states that the two experimental aircraft found near Baltimore yesterday have absolutely no connection with the reported phenomena of the flying saucers." By referring to the "reported phenomena of flying saucers" the air force again stated its skeptical attitude as to whether there really ever have been any such things. The eccentric inventor of the abandoned experimental aircraft, which were rediscovered yesterday, was Jonathan E. Caldwell. He disappeared from Maryland nine years ago.

Vaughan in 1946 tried to intercede with the Agriculture Department about rationing of grain for distillers. President Truman's military aide was said to have telephoned an Agriculture Department official to complain about an order tightening up on supplies of grain for distilling. Vaughan, Recording to an Informed government source, complained that the White House was not informed in advance that Clinton P.
