Dobbins Reveals Tremont Loans to 28 Straws
Real estate man Robert M. Dobbins states 28 loans totaling 656000 were made to straw parties for the New England Fireproof Construction Company. Each straw transferred rights to the project for 5 dollars, with proceeds used in building 15 and 13 fireproof apartment blocks. Foreclosure and bankruptcy followed as costs rose with war-time inflation.
