Dummy Fund Used for Cox, Says Brewer (Continued from pitis one) Talbott jr., was president of the air plane company.- Kettering is an in ventor and one of the originators of j the Metal Products Company. Over a year after the 1916 campaign, I or on February 3 1918, the Dayton j Flood Prevention Committee paid $26,- j 242.50 out of its funds, Schantz testi- ; fied, as follows: To Edward T, Hall, $8,400; to Gale M. Hartley and I).; uara, $8,693; to John Lloyd, $6,949.50; , to Geoeke and Anderson, Wapakoneta ; lawyers, $2,000; to G. W. Ozias, $1200. Schantz admitted that these men ' really were dummies and that the $26,242.50 was transferred by file dum? mies to himself, he in turn turning the money over, pro-rata among the origi- '\ nal contributors, or giving it to the Metal Products Company, for distribu-i tion by them. Dummy Method Adopted Explaining the purpose of the Flood ; Prevention Committee, Schantz, who was one of its trustees, said it was a I committee formed following the 1913 flood, to relieve suffering and to work ;. '. ;.-? recurrence of a flood. Schantz] said 86.4 per cent of the money origi? nally collected by the committee had been returned to tho contributors, ''Was, this return made direct, or through dummies?" asked Edge. "Direct." "Then it was not customary to dis? burse the Hood committee funds through dummies ?" "No," answered Schantz, "but when the $26,242.50 was disbursed, the dum? my method was suggested and agreed: to by all members of the committee." ''Are you aware," Edge asked Schantz, "that the Ohio corrupt practices act prohibits contributions by a corpora? tion to a campaign fund?" Schantz said be was not familiar ' with this law. The $5,000 note, dated August 16, 1917, signed by James M. Cox, then was introduced into the evidence. It was made payable to the City National Bank, of which Talbott sr., president of the Metal Product:' Company, also was ent at the time. An indorsement showed it was paid.

Hays, chairman of the Re? publican National Committee, yesterday requested George White, chairman of the Democratic National Committee, to aid the Republicans in learning what President Wilson promisi d European statesmen this country would elo "und which is not in the text of the League of Nations covenant." The request was embodied in a reply to Chairman White, who on the nrevious day asked the Republican chairman to join with him in "an effort ? ) acquaint the voters with the tetit of the covenant of the League of Nations." "To acquaint the voters of the coun? try with the truth about the Wilson League of Nations," said Chairman Hays, "has been the earnest effort of the Republican organization ever since the Administration took over the* cable? which kepi the country from knowing anything about the development of the covenant, We will, of course, be glad to do any thine; further !'?' libio, V, ?th you m- separately, as tve have been doing, ti : ii.-i end, "Ma . 1 further suggi st, likcv i ic in the interest of truth, that we make an effort m sum,- way !" ascertain and advise the country just vvnat the Presi dent promised Europe th.nl this coun? try would do which may not ?<- in the text, of the covenant?

"Further, and likev i so in the interesl of truth, I trust you will help acquaint the country with tue substance e,f the Senate reservations voted for by over twenty-three Democrats. It seems that the'se' reservations have not be'e'ii pub? lished in the Democratic textbook. "We have published a pamphlet of sixty-four putees devoted exclusively to the League of Nations, but will be glad to join with you, if you elesire, not only in urging the newspapers to publish the text of the covenant and the Senate reservations, but in issuing a pamphlet by the two committees in? cluding both the text of the covenant and the text of the Senate' reservations. "I note flint t'ne President in his statement em Monday said: 'There is nothing in the covenant which in the least interferes with or impairs the right of Coigress to declare war or not declare war according to its own independent judgment.' Mr. Bryan, in his speech on Jackson Day, said: 'If we do not intend to impair the ripht of Congress to decide the question of peace or war when the time for ac? tion arises, how can we insist upon a moral obligation to go to war which can have no fence or value except, as it, does impair the independence of Congress ?' "It is certainly the duty of all to help clarify the situation." charges. It was for $5,075, signed by H. K. Talbott. On .lune 29, 1918, Cox was a candi? date for a third term ns Governor, the primary petition having been tiled a few days before-. Meier Steinbrink, who served as counsel to the Hughes Investigating Committee, testified to what he termed "a remarkable coincidence in elates," centering about August 15, 1917. He said : ")?;. A. Deeds went to Washington in March, 1917, and served on the muni? tions board. Afterward, the Dayton Wright Airplane Company was formed. In d ti r*e, 1917, negotiations for air? plane contracts were opened with the War Department. On August l?, 1917, Deeds was commissioned Colonel. On August 10. 1917, tlie Cox note was dis? counted by tue City National Bank. On August 17, 1917, the first contract for airplanes was awarded to the Dayton-Wright Airplane Company. .In August, 1917, salaries of Ket tering, Talbott sr. and Talbott jr., were iixeel. On August 7!, 1917, Deeds, then head of the equipment elepart ment, was authorized to execute con? tracts. In May, 1918, the Dayton Wright Airplane Company got its first checK from Washington.

A moment after Mr Schantz hail admitted that $26,242.50 o: Hood prevention money had bee'ii use< to re?lect Governor Cox, Senato Pomerene declared the committee wa? vholly without jurisdiction to investi gate that matter. "Oh, well," observed Senator Edge "if it is your desire that we go n further with this inquiry into the us in' that money, I will not oppose dis continuing the hearing r?7it now." "This inquiry is not in gooel faith, hotly d?clar?e', the Democratic Senatoi "It was not started in good faith.
