Boston delegates condemn Doheny appointment in Irish society row
Delegates of the Greater Boston council of the American Association for the Recognition of the Irish Republic read and voted a statement accusing those responsible for appointing Doheny as president of the newly organized Irish society. The document alleges Doheny, while leading Doheny interests, negotiated with British representatives, detailing connections among Mexican Petroleum Company Pan-American Petroleum and Transport Company and Mexican Eagle Oil. It also cites the 1919 British Petroleum Company formation and British government stock as part of a British-dominated oil-control claim.

Pan-American Oil Chief Tied to British Government
The Pan-American Petroleum Company led by Doheny is described as a partner of the British government through a long term contract with the Mexican Petroleum Company. British figures visited Mexico in 1920 to secure oil supply, with Doheny seen as ensuring a steady British naval and commercial oil flow. Critics call for congressional inquiry into Doheny’s dual role and question his Irish Society presidency amid U S national interests.
