with respect to any loan or any
other transactions.
Mr.. Dawson accused the SUBJ
committee of using misleading
language in its report to the Sen
ate which, he said, makes nc
charge against me, yet it creates
an unfavorable impression of me
by aSsociating me with other
persons criticized in the report. -
1t illustrate, he quoted from a
section which named Rex Jacobs,
Detroit industrialist; E. Merl
Young, husband of a former White
House stenographer, and Joseph
H. Rosenbaum, Washington law
yer, as members of an alleged
ring of influence on RFC affairs.
The report added that Mr..
Jacobs cultivated the friend
ship" of Mr.. Dawson and enter
tanned Mr.. Young and Mr.. Rosen-
baum at his luxurious ranch in
Homestead, Fla. Dawson, too,
has been his guest" the report
added.
Says Loan Was Repaid.
Mr.. Dawson complained that
"the report does not bring out the
fact that never met him (Jacobs)
until about two years after his
loan was made and that the loan
has been repaid in full"
Similarly any implication that
Young, Rosenbaum and I were
together at Jacobs Florida home
would be untrue" MIR. Dawson
said. a '.The fact is that I do not
know Joseph Rosenbaum. have
never seen him, have never talked
with him on the telephone. The
testimony before this committee
confirms that fact
The subcommittee has heard
testimony that Mr.. Rosenbaum
once claimed he had RFC Direc-
tors Walter Durham and William
Willett lin his hip pocket"
Mr.. Dawson told the subcom-
mittee his relations with Mr.
Jacobs were solely that II found
Mr.. Jacobs and his wife pleasant
and saw them socially from time
to time"
Nothing to Do With Loan.
Mr.. Dawson noted that "consid.
cradle publicity" resulted from
testimony several weeks ago thai
he stayed at the Saxony Hotel or
three occasions and that he die
not pay the $30-a-day room
charge.
Il can only hope" he said
that equal publicity will be giver
to the fact that I had nothinf
whatever to do with the RFC loar
to the Saxony Hotel. I have never
asked the RFC to take any actor
on any matter relating to the
Saxony Hotel.
LAS a matter of fact, until the
newspaper publicity incident tt
your investigation, I cannot recall
ever having heard that the Saxony
had any loans or any other Gov
eminent business.
Mr.. Dawson did not discuss TIT
circumstances of his visits to ths
hotel in 1949 and early 1850. HI
commented, however. that h
understood that it is a common
practice of hotels in Miami tt

were extended to me-"

We were just discussing its pos
sible effects. Mr.. Niles was very
much concerned because I was
being mentioned at the hearings.
I suppose he was solicitous. But
I did not suggest that he call any,
body and I don't know why he
would make a call to Mr..
Wheeler"
Senator Tobey also brought up
the subject of the congressional
letters which Mr.. Truman last
March requested and obtained
from RFC.
Mr.. Dawson declared that the
President asked for the letters
and personally saw all of them.
Did you suggest such an ap-
proach as a counterattack on this
Investigations" Senator Tobey
asked.
Mr.. Dawson replied that he saw
no indication that the letters had
been obtained as a possible club
over this investigation"
No Evidence of Fees.
He also said that none of the
approximately 20 letters he read
gave any evidence that any mem
Der of Congress took a fee or
exerted undue influence in con-
pection with any RFC loan.
He explained that the White
House request to RFC was "a
general request for letters from
outside sources, including mem
bers of Congress"
The only one he recalled as not
having been written by member
of Congress was from former
Chairman Harder. This con-
cerned some of the subcommittee
staff members and was critical of
them, Mr. Dawson said. The con-
tents of the letter was not made
public today.
Later, however, Chairman Full
bright asked Mr.. Dawson whether
he or any one else at the White
House spread rumorS that Theo-
dore Herr, subcommittee chief in
vestigator, owned stock in an oil
well project in which some RFC
employees and Democratic Nation
al Chairman William M. Boyde,
jr., were interested. Mr.. Dawson
declared that neither he nor any
of his White House associates, sc
far as he knew, ever tipped Off
newspaper reporters about that
story.
Explains Purpose.
In connection with his denial
that he interfered with RFC ad-
ministrative procedure. Mr.. Daw-
son admitted that it was entire
ly possible" that he told former
RFC Director Walter Durham
that I'VE would like co-ordina-
ton in clearing appointments tc
RFC."
He explained that his purpose
was to see that all persons rec
commended for key RFC positions
were known to the White House
and given "eoual consideration"
Mr.. Dawsor .aferred the Senate
Committee to r;;iolic statement
by one of its members. Senator
Douglas, Democrat of Illinois, thai
he had sent letters to the RFC
concerning loans and quoted Sen.
ator Douglas statement that "a
no time have I Douglas tried tt
put threats or promises, either
tacit or stated. that they shoulc
give these loans"
Attitude Called Proper.
Mr.. Dawson said he considered
Senator Douglas attitude proper
and continued.
Il can state, as Senator Doug
las did, that 1 have never at an,
time requested the RFC to bypas
any of its regular procedures
nor have I by threats or promise
either tacit or stated, put pres
