From: "Linda Minor" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> The land where Johnson Space Center is located was until about 1938 owned by the West family (father of "Silver Dollar Jim" West)--James Mason West and wife, Alice Snead West. They sold the huge ranch to Humble Oil Company (now Exxon). Humble Oil then deeded a portion of the ranch to Rice University (big tax deduction), which then sold it to the government. Brown and Root (George and Herman Brown) got the contract for the construction. Guess who was chairman of the Rice Board of Trustees? George R. Brown, of course. The coffers filled up with money for him and his friends to dispense in loans to their cronies. It's all in the deed and mortgage records in Harris County. What did LBJ get out of it? His biggest fundraiser was George R. Brown. Brown and Root's attorney was a man named Edgar Monteith who was caught up in a scandal years later when Drew Pearson exposed his method of funneling cash to Johnson through Brown and Root subsidiaries. -----Original Message----- From: James Maberry <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Date: Wednesday, September 01, 1999 4:11 PM Subject: [CIA-DRUGS] Byrd >From: James Maberry <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > >Hey Dan, >I tried to send you a message earlier but it got screwed up some how. >Somewhere I've got a source that states Byrd bought a bunch of LTV stock >just before the Dealy Plaza party.
