Martin Testimony Details Navy Armor Pact and Money Trust Ties
Senator Cummins questions Martin about the Navy League and alleged slush funds for importers. Martin names Oklahoma’s M E Louxwood as former president, Cotter Bride as treasurer, and Herman Schulters as counsel, citing past legal advice from Ohio’s Attorney General Monett. He says the league spent about $50,000 and linked lobby activity to the money, railroad, steel, harvest, and elevator trusts, while resisting disclosure for fear of “great trusts.” He notes Lamar helped draft a 1910 steel trust resolution and claims lobbyists swayed DoJ and Congress toward investigations, with photographers hounding Lamar after the session.
