When Congress recOnvenCs next week.
one Of the first things 20 be done will
be the appointment OF the special Joint
committee 20 investigate the BaIlinger-
Pinchot controversy. The investigation

Secretary Of the Interior and the Chief
Of the Forest Service.
II will be the first time in history that
Congress has placed a Cabinet officer
on trial at his own request In making
his request for an Investigation, Mr.
Ballinger stipulated that the admins

ercnls 20 make good their case.
On Tuesday or Wednesday, the Joint
resolution providing for the invcstiga-
ton VIII be presented by the Senate
committee on Public Lands ana the
House Committee on Rules. IT will be
an Administration resolution, and 70 is
expected that ID viii be adopted with
Dut little opposition.
There may be some objection on the
part o. northumberland ouists 20 the Sc
committee by the Niye-prcsidcut and the
Speaker of the House, on the ground
that the men they select would natur-
ally be- friendly to Halliuger. Tie Ad-
mlnisiration leaders, however, have
given assurances that the members of
the committee viii he chosen with the
idea OF an absolutely impartial iuvesti-
cation.
There VIII probably be twelve mem
bcrS, four Republicans and two Demo
crates from each house. Senator kuute
Nelson of Minnesota, chairman Of the
committee on pubic Lands, VIII likely
he the chairman OF the investigator
committee.
SO bitter mas become the di-scnsion i'm

embarrassing TO the Administration, that

Senator Clapp was asked MS opinion
about the relation of the increased
gold supply 20 the increasing prices.

Mexicans Jealous
Of United States.

Senior Enrique Creel. OF Mexico, for
NOR ambassador TO this country, who
has come here to help settle the Near
aguan trouble. has . delicate task on
his hands. His government would like
20 cooperate with the United States in
peacefully smoothing out all the Central
American difficulties. But the Mexicans
and the Mexican government are not
disposed to jump on the PROSTATE form
OF Zelaya too hard.
If the Central American trouble
could be handled with soft gloves. that
would suit Mexico TO a dot. But MeXi-
co cannot go along with the United
States I'm this business Of using ma
Tines gUnbOats and possibly even sol
diers. This Is for the reason that
Mexican public sentiment is jealous Of
any attempt Of the United States 20
deal summarily with any OF the Latin
American peoples.

ENERAB J. FRANKLIN BELL,
chief Of staff Of the army,
voiced the general sentiment Of

army officers before the House
Committee on Military Affairs the
other day when he lamented the fact
that Congress had taken a stand
! against the purchase Of horses to en-
able the officers to play polo.
lot Of folks never have been able
to see why Uncle Sam should furnish
horses to let the officers OF the army
play polo, but General Bell explained
II
THE purpose Of It," said General
Bell, was not 10 entertain, but 10 i'm

officers"
General Bell proceeded to make a
strong plea in behalf Of polo. He de
clared IL was no Childs play, but only
a game for strong men and that there
was no better way Of training men TO
be good horsemen than by the game OF
polo.
General Bell Is great believer in
good Craftsmanship. He told the Mill
tary Affairs Committee il was absolutely
impossible to have mounted men well
led unless the leader was a good horse
man. He said that valuable as cavalry
was in war, il was highly expensive
and useless without good horses and
good horsemen and unless the officers
in command could ride as ~.N rs lead.
