The House Ethics Committee said that it has begun a preliminary inquiry into Democratic Rep. Dan Daniel’s acceptance of free rides on an airplane owned by a corporation. The action, the first step in a process that could lead to formal charges or exoneration of the Virginia Democrat, was announced in a statement by the committee’s chairman, Rep. Julian C. Dixon (D-Los Angeles). Daniel, a senior member of the House Armed Services Committee, said in a statement that he will cooperate with the investigation.
