Henry L. Doherty Victim
In S1,5OO,OOO Fraud
Special Dispatch to The Tribune

TOLEDO, Ohio, Feb. 9-Henry L.
Doherty and others in the Cities Serv-
ice Company were defrauded of ap-
proximately $780, 600 on purchase of
oil and gas lands. according to charges
made by the United States Attorneys
Office here to-day in announcing the
indictment of Jesse c. Mcdowell, sixty
two years old. of Pittsburgh. Nc
Dowell was arrested in Washington
and held under $4,000 bail pending his
arraignment before Judge Killits.
Joseph A. Burdeau, special assist
ant TO the Attorney General, says facts
show that Mcdowell, while employed
by Doherty interests at a salary of
$4,000 montl'.-, bought up oil and gas
lands in Kentucky fields. He was en-
ployed between October, 1912, and
April, 1920.
McDowell's scheme, according to
Burdeau, was to determine what own
ers OF oil and gas property asked for
their land. If the price, for instance
was $450,000 Mcdowell would offer
$500 900, making it understood TO own
ers of property that Doherty, interests
would pay him $4,000 as his commits
sion.

Workers Votes Gained
Victory for Gen. Srnuts

CAPE TOWN, Feb. 9,-Prime Minis
ter Smuts, and the entire South Afri-
ca party were victorious in the cleo
tions to the Assembly yesterday. Gen
eral Smuts was elected to the House
of the Assembly from the district Of
West Pretoria, and while the vote
from the rural sections is coming in
slowly, it is indicated that his party
will have good working majority in
the Assembly.
The victory is attributed to the vote
of the workingmen, who paid little
attention to sectional issues raised by
labor leaders and opposed the issue of
secession raised by General Hertzog.
The South African party favors the
continuation of the union with Great
Britain.
The Nationalists, had they been vic
torious, would have sought to secede
from the empire.
At midnight tonight the results
showed that the South African Co.
alitionists had gained sixty-tive seats
the Nationalists thirty -four, the Labor,
ties nine and the Independents one
while reports on twenty-three seats
are not in yet.

Edison Names
Hoover as First
Cabinet Choice
Great Inventor ON Eve of
74th Birthday Gives His
Views ON Political and
Social Problems of Day
Favors Tax on Sales
Says Germans Can Pay the
Allied Indemnity; Urges
Exclusion of Japanese

The sort of Cabinet President Har-
ding selects will have much to do with
the future of business in this country,
in the opinion of Thomas A. Edison,
who will be seventy-four years old to-
morrow and VINO expressed his views
on matters in general at his labora-
tories at Orange, N. j., yesterday.
Mr.. Edison's first choice for the
Cabinet is Herbert Hoover. He wants
to see Mr.. Hoover "placed in posi-
tion in the government whera his great
executive ability and experience can be
utilized best"
With regard to taxation, Mr.. Edison
said that he f,vored the adoption of
Otto Kahn's plan for tax of one-third
of per cent on all sales. Mr.. Edison
continued:
Let the big bankers get together
and organize clearing houses and tech
nical inspectors to exchange commodi-
ties instead Of credits Buyers and
sellers will thus be given a chance to
| check the quality of the commodity be-
fore buying"
War Prevention Theory
| In the matter of preventing war Mr.
Edison thinks an effective step would
be an alliance or understanding by the
United States, Great Britain, France
Italy and Japan and $50 per cent dis
armament" In his opinion there will
be many small wars and the posi-
| bility of another big war will extend
| beyond our own lives at least"
| He said there is danger of war with
! japan unless that country is permitted
to have room to accommodate its in
creasing population, but he is not in
favor of letting the Japanese come
! here, because they will not mix with
US racially." With unrestricted Japa-
nese immigration, he said, conditions
would become as bad as in Europe
where people living on opposite sides
of the same river hate one another
In the opinion of Mr.. Edison Ger.
many can pay the sum it has been
taxed by the Allied reparations com
mittee. He said the payments extend
over forty-five years and must and
will be reduced any time Germany pre-
sents facts justifying reduction. 1t is
absurd to keep man in Jail for debt
Views ON Young Men
Bolshevism, Mr.. Edison said, coulc
best be met by counter propaganda By
business men. The divorce evil, he ad
mitted, ne didn't know was serious
and prohibition he characterized a,
beneficial to the workingmar, though, il
his opinion, it will take several year,
for the law to reach its highest eff
cheney. Asked to lay down a rule TO,
success in life, the inventor replied:
Il can't give any advice on that sub
ject. If q young man has reached
twenty-one and is dead mentally NJ
amount of advice, example or expert
ence will ever change him in tbs slight
est. If at some period between twelv,
and sixteen years of age he can becom
interested in a subject and grow en-
thusiastic then he will advance and be
come high type of man. If not hi

will be a mental dead one'''

Burglars at Same Place
Three Times i'm a Month

The first employees to arrive at the
laboratories OF tho Caswell Massey
Drug Company, 222 West Thirtieth
Street, discovered yesterday morning
that burglars had been there before
them. 1t Is the third time in a month
that burglars have visited the place.
This time they were in earnest.
They got in through the skylight,
apparently carrying cold chisels, crow
bars, sledge hammers and such a
variety of other cumbersome tools as
almost to Indicate that they had come
in II motor truck. They pried safe
weighing 1900 pounds from it's 12-inch
pedestal, throwing 1t over on It's back
with force that must have shaken
the building.
With sledge and chisel and crowbar
they attacked the safe, and after hours
of dangerous hammering, chiseled
through combination and hinges and
ripped off the door. All this went on
within a block of the West Thirtieth
Street police station, but was not dis
covered. Inside the safe the burglars
found only about $500 in currency and
$500 worth of Liberty bonds, belonging
to employees. They smashed numerous
bottles of chemicals before they de-
