Description given with photo: "Hughes Turns Quizmaster, Washington: Howard Hughes (right) submits a list of questions intended for Senator Owen Brewster (R. Me.) to chairman Homer Ferguson (R, Mich.) of the Senate War Investigating Subcommittee. Hughes had said he could prove that Bewster's claims about Hughes' business were "a pack of lies" if he were permitted to cross-examine the senator. The written questions resulted. Credit (ACME) 8/7/47."

Howard Hughes drinking what seems to be a glass of water. There are onlookers behind him. Written on back: "Howard Hughes and plane." Presumably the Northrop Gamma Racer.

At the witness table (center) sits Hughes (right) and the attorney for the Hughes Tool Co., T.A. Slack (left). On left, directly in front of the battery of newsreel cameras is the committee table.
