]. Richard Dixie" Davis, one-time
"kid mouthpiece" for the Dutch
Schultz gang, will act as his own
lawyer in an effort to prevent Dis
trict Attorney Dewey from sending
him to jail as the successor to
Schultz.
The 33-year-old disbarred lawyer
made this known today in an eX-
elusive interview in Tombs Prison,
where he has been held since his
arrest in Philadelphia February
2 last.
81 know all about the old
adage, a man who is his own
lawyer has a fool for a Client"
he said, land If I had any sense
I wouldn't act as my own lawyer
when my trial is called--but I'm
innocept-I've said that so
often-but I'll do my best to
prove it."
Scheduled to 60 on trial with six
others next Monday, Davis learned
today that he will not face Dewey
until after Memorial Day. The
delay was caused by the arrest yes
terday of Harry Schoenhaus, q
co-defendant, and member of the
Schultz gang. He will go on trial
with Davis and the others.

In his closing address to the
jury, Assistant United States At
torney John, D. Ray claimed
Father Cox and his associates
planned a 100000 contest and
that they faced an insoluble prob
lem in arithmetic when the income
fell short of $4,000.
Ray Scoffed at insinuationS that
u. C. Gratten" was actually j. C.
Pierman. of Cleveland, who has
been named in testimony as the
financial angel behind the $685.

gardens.

There isn't single thing in
this contest to indicate Pierman
was in it," Ray declared. Pier
man makes convenient whip
ping boy, straw-man, for the
defense to throw stones at-be-
cause he isn't here"
Father Cox, he added, was mo
greenhorn" in the business of
holding lotteries. He previously
had been associated with the same
men, Ray said, in lotteries based
on horse races.
Ray cited the following reasons
for the Governments charges
Father Cox was fully responsible
for the garden stakes" and was
far from being an innocent dupe
of promoters:
The literature of the contest
instructed subscribers to make all
checks payable to Father Cox: no
checks or money orders could be
cashed without Father Cox's sig,
nature, and each day Arthur G.
Wicks. a promoter-defendant who
has pleaded guilty, made out a list
of all incoming money, and took
it to Father Cox.
LITERATURE CITED
In denying the promoters sent
out books of tickets and collected
money without Father CoXs
knowledge, Ray said:
The literature instructs sub
scribers to write to Father Cox
if they didn't get their medals"
Throughout his address Ray con-
coded the priest had been trying
to get the money for charity.
THE only element of doubt in
this case is the element OF lot
or chance he said. you will
have to decide whether this was
a contest or a lottery"
Father Cox, he insisted, must
have been responsible for the
prizes, because he received $3.50
out of each SIS book of tickets
although his share for charities
was to have been only one'fourtE
of the amount.
The jury was to get the case
as soon as Federal Judge F. p
Schoonmaker delivered his charge
Seven defendants, including
Wicks, have pleaded guilty.

the greatest humanitarian in the
Pittsburgh district" during the
