Noah Deitrich, seated, left, vice president of the Hughes Aircraft Co., told the Brewster Committee today that Maj. Gen. Oliver Echois, former AAF procurement (?) chief, refused to do business with Howard Hughes, right, because he "disliked" the multi-millionaire air-plane builder. Hughes' counsel, Thomas I. Slack, standing, is shown as he interrupted Deitrich's testimony to fire a question at the war contract probers. -INP Photo by G.B. Kress- 8/8/47."
