U. S. MAKES CHARGES
Lurid Circulars Sent Through

J. 5. MAKES CHARGES

Seymour E. J. Cox, Texas oil man
and potash promoter. whose methods
of doing business were denounced last
October in a statement by the AS
sociated Advertising Clubs Of the
World. was arrested last night in Ho-
tel Monterey. Broadway and Ninety
second street. where he las been stop
ping with his wife and son.
He was taken by Lieut.. Gegan and
Detectives Reilley and Brown from
Central Office and Post Office In
spector c. J. Weldon at the request
OF Federal authorities in Houston,
Tex. who wired that they held war
rant for Cox's arrest charging him
with, using the mails to defraud
Cox was locked up in Police Head
quarters. and in few days probably
will be sent to Houston. where the war
rant was issued by United States Com
missioner Douglas on February IS.
Word from Houston says Cox is
wanted on a complaint charging he de-
frauded stockholders In three companies
whose capitalization aggregates SAL
100000. Federal District Attorney Sim
mons has asked that he be held under
s25,0o0 bond. Stockholders are scat
tered over the entire world.
1t is this company that was the OBJ
ject of the attack last year by the
Associated Advertising Clubs, and IL is
believed the basis OF the warrant is
Cox's activities In disposing OF stock OF
this concern. which also dabbled some
what in Cox's oil properties. Lieut..
Gegan said last night Cox had admitted
that since organization the company
has taken in sl.500.0o0 in the sale OF
stock and other items. The warrant is
said to read that Cox has defrauded
people in the United States and has
used the mails to do II.
The police said that Cox, who refused
to discuss his arrest. has been living in
New York for some time. stopping in
the Monterey and receiving his mail at
l45 West Forty-fifth street He has
made New York a sort of headquarters
for several years. and has succeeded In
obtaining a great deal of personal pub
lefty. and publicity for his oil and
potash schemes. by his activities with
airplanes
Available records show Cox was in
trouble with the Government in 1919.
when the Federal Trade Commission
prosecuted him. his wife and several
other officials OF his companies on
charges OF fraudulent advertising and
other unfair practices.
The report and statement Of the AS
ISOLATED Advertising Clubs which were
printed in THE NEW York HERALD. dealt
with Cox's methods Of advertising and
also quoted reports of Government en-
gipeers to prove there was no merit in
his claim he had uncovered potash beds
In Texas containing deposits of potash
eco feet thick. The report held that the
advertising promised profits that made
Ponzi look foolish. Cox promised 20ol
per cent. 70 his investors. declaring a
piece of his property could be bought
for sl60 and would return 5000 000

BULLING THE BONUS THROUGH

Mr. Mellon, Secretary of the Treasury sent to Chair
Fordney of the Ways and Means Committee on
Saturday long and carefully worked out statement
showing the financial burdens of the country and pointing
out what it will to the country in additional burdens
if the Fordney bonus bill is passed.
1t a masterfu document clear and convincing,
in which Secretary Mellon left for doubt that the
passage of this bonus bill would be national calamity.
Chairman Fordney notwithstanding treats this state
ment of the Secretary of the Treasury with cold
tempt and with sheer bravado says he will jam his bonus
bill through in spite of what Mellon says, commenting
that the Treasury Department doesn't know what it is
talking about.
The arrogance Of these Republican bonus Congress
men in view of the fact that the Republican party not
committed to the bonus is beyond all exhibits of the kind
in the history of national legislation and national politics.

New York Herald Bureau,
Washington, d. c., March I3.
The revolt in the House of Repre-.
sentatives against the bonus raid on
the public treasury and business Of
the country has provided many snags
to complicate and confuse the plan to
jam" 1t through.
The meeting of the Ways and
Means Committee scheduled for to.
day after a previous postponement
was not held. 1t may be held to.
morrow. 1t may not be held to-mor.
row.
The Republican members of the
Ways and Means Committee were too
greatly incensed over Secretary Mel
Ions clear cut and convincing state
ment that the insurance certificate
loan project is the worst yet in their
gag" rule plan for railroading the
measure through the lower house.
Further than this, they had genu-
inc cause for apprehension. because
many members of both parties who
hitherto have been for the bonus dis.
played tendency to accept the OBJ
jections presented by Mr.. Mellon as
conclusive evidence that the certifi.
cate loan plan is both unsound and
unwise.
One of the most startling OF the
many developments that probably
added to the aggravation of Mr.. Ford
ney and the other rule or ruin bonus
members OF Congress was the dis
covery that at least four and possibly
five of the seventeen Republicans on
the committee concede the force and
logic of the facts and figures pre-
pared by the financial experts of the
Government
This discovery inspired Representa-
tive Garner (Tex). ranking Demo-
cratic member of the Ways and Means
Committee. to propose to his dissent
ing Republican associates a union OF
forces to head Off Mr.. Fordney's arbi-
trary plan for preventing amendments
to the bill and adherence TO his pro-
gram for passing 1t in the House next
week.
The combination may be brought
about tomorrow IL the four Republi-
cans who are known to be opposed
TO the bill-Representatives Treadway
(Mass.). Tilson Comm. and Mott and
Mills IN. Y)-can induce one other
Republican TO join with the eight
Democratic members. Such a com
bination would take the committee
away from Mr.. Fordney. as the vote
would stand twelve in favor of the
insurance certificate plan and thirteen
against it.
