useTable problem?

Ok, strange behavior which is probably just a misunderstanding of a
n00b, but here goes:

I have models for 'Order,' 'OrderPayment', 'OrderDetail',
'OrderShipment', 'OrderCredit', 'OrderCoupon'. All of these, because
I'm trying to transition from an old system into a new system, have
tables with different naming conventions, specifically 'LatteOrder,'
'LatteOrderPayment', 'LatteOrderDetail', 'LatteOrderShipment',
'LatteOrderCredit', 'LatteOrderCoupon'. In the models, I have them
using the proper table names:

class OrderPayment extends AppModel {
var $name = 'OrderPayment';
var $useTable = 'latteorderpayment';
var $primaryKey = 'PaymentID';
}

And in any one of those cases, I can setup a controller and view and
complete the "circuit" if you will. They all seem to be working
independently of one another. That includes setting up hasMany
relationships:

class Order extends AppModel {
var $name = 'Order';
var $useTable = 'latteorder';
var $primaryKey = 'LatteOrderID';
var $hasMany = array(
'OrderPayment',
'OrderDetail',
'OrderShipment',
'OrderCredit',
'OrderCoupon'
);
}
However, I have a controller which doesn't need it's own model, but
rather uses the Orders table. When I run this controller, I get an
error message:

class momExtractController extends AppController {
var $uses = array('Order');
}

Error: "Error: Database table order_payments for model OrderPayment
was not found."

If I comment out the OrderPayment table in the $hasMany variable, the
next one in line comes up as the error message. What's going on?
