FBI memos would appear to show that someone close to Hughes was providing information to FBI on nearly a daily basis during this time. Memos detail an FBI investigation into the wiretapping of Hughes by Congressional investigators. Latter memos chronicle the onset of Hughes' peculiar behavior. Much attention is given to Hughes' 1970 disappearance. Files includes memos and FBI lab reports dealing with the investigation of the "Mormon Will" naming Melvin Dummar.as a beneficiary.

About Howard Hughes
Howard Hughes was born to a wealthy family. Orphaned at 17, he dropped out of school to take control of the family business, the Hughes Tool Company. Although Hughes maintained control of the company, he quickly set out for Los Angeles to pursue two main goals, to become a famous movie producer and the world's best pilot. Howard Hughes combined certain aspects of his two dreams when he produced and directed the movie Hell's Angels (1930), a romantic vision of World War I aviators. The film took three years to make, cost $3.8 million to produce, and killed three pilots in the process. It also received an Academy Award nomination for Best Cinematography. To make the film, Howard Hughes accumulated the world' largest private air force, accumulating 87 vintage Spads, Fokkers and Sopwith Camels. Hughes directed the aerial combat scenes filmed over Mines Field, now the location of Los Angeles International Airport. Hughes also crashed during the filming and was pulled unconscious from his plane. Parts of the film had to be re-shot, due to the increasing popularity of talking pictures. The film was not able to recoup at the box office its $3.8 million price tag, the most expensive film produced up to that point.
Although Howard Hughes set several air speed and distance records in his early years, those accomplishments were overshadowed in his later years by his poor business decisions, his attempts to manipulate the military aircraft market, and his personal eccentricities and reclusiveness. Still, in spite of some of his unscrupulous actions late in life and his eccentric and reclusive personality, he was in many ways seen by many as a romantic figure, and his aviation career, at least in the beginning, reflected his great love of the aviation.
In 1966 Howard Hughes moved to Las Vegas. By this time his decent into mental illness, reclusiveness, and drug addiction was well underway. When the Desert Inn threatened to evict him, he bought the hotel. Hughes also became the owner of Castaways, New Frontier, Landmark, Sands and the Silver Slipper. Hughes' investments in Las Vegas is credited with moving control and ownership of hotels and casinos in Las Vegas away from mobsters and toward corporate entities.
Despite suffering four plane crashes while testing his own aircraft during his career, Hughes ironically died as a passenger on a jet plane on April 5, 1976, while en route to receive medical treatment after years of self-neglect. X-rays taken during Hughes' autopsy showed dozens of broken off needles in his arms and legs. Four-hundred people claimed to be heirs to Hughes' fortune. The most famous being Melvin Dummar.
