Frank Jacobs, 1002 So. Main St. Earl R. Price, Post Office. THE DAWES FAMILY (Continued from page one) also brothers of "Helen Maria" Dawes, are executives. In passing, it might be mentioned that the Dawes family is strongly represented on the gov ernment pay roll, as Rufus Cutler is in Germany with the reparations commission and Henry May is con troller of the currency under Secre tary Mellon. Dawes Bros. Own Humphreys Stock According to the testimony of Be man Gates Dawes, Dawes Bros., Inc., own a large interest in the Humph reys Oil Company, so it is apparent the Dawes family must have profited by money made in the Continental lease transaction. While "Helen Maria" is not on record, so far as has been ascertained, as being a member of Dawes Bros., Inc., there is little doubt that he has more than a pla tonic interest in the affairs of the banking institution. The Dawes brothers stick together and it is al most inconceivable that "Helen Maria" did not have a share of the $2,000,000 'pie." His profits may have been de rived from the sale of the oil by Humphreys ar.d so have been strictly "legitimate" but there is the possibil ity that he also may have been among those who, like Fall, are alleged to! have been given a slice of the $2,000,- 000 profit. Other sharers in the $2,000,000 "jackpot" may be revealed when the government procesutors examine wit nesses who are now resisting efforts to get information from them. The affidavits telling of the $2,000,000 profit were filed at Toronto to meet requirements of Canadian law and the earliest date that a hearing can be held is January 6. Until then it is hardly probable that the witnesses whose testimony is sought by the government will unburden themselves. Pure Oil Company a Dawes Concern It is perhaps not generally realized that members of the Dawes family are heavily interested in the Pure Oil Company, one of the largest oil com panies in the country, and often call ed the "Dawes Pure Oil Company." It is known that Harry Daugherty, the late Pesse Smith and others of the "Ohio gang" which held such high positions in the Harding administra tion were large holders of Pure Oil stock. Operations in Pure Oil stock, in which big profit* were made by The Ralston Paint 108 North Third St. "insiders," brought members of the Dawes family into contact with the "Ohio gang," many of whose mem bers are known to- have been heartily in sympathy with the "open shop" views of "Helen Maria" Dawes. "Helen Maria" himself hobnobbed witli former Attorney General Daugh erty, President Harding and other leading republican chieftains on a houseboat party in Florida, during which Dawes urged that the repub licans make a declaration for the "open shop" a leading plank in their platform. The G. O. P. moguls look ed with favor on the proposal, but the flood of scandals that broke over the Harding administration sapped their nerve, and when the Cleveland con vention came around, they forgot about the "open shop." To show, however, that their hearts were in the right place, they nominated for vice president "Helen Maria" Dawes, one of the chief "open shop" advocates in the nation. Dawes Now Hedges on the "Open Shop" Since his nomination, "Helen Maria" has been hedging on the "open shop" and has lost, temporarilyl at least, much of his vociferousness on the anti-union issue. Instead, he has been spending much of his time at attempting to explain various episodes in his career, including the much dis cussed aid given to the Lorimer bank in Chicago, which afterward failed, with great loss to depositors. Appar ently he must now do some explaining on oil. That his explanations will be any better than others of his kind who were spattered with oil is not expected. Oil, it has been discovered, is very hard to eradicate from one's ciothing or from one's record.
