'|NSURGENT
WON HOUSE
FIGHT
THE MEMBERS OF LOWER HOUSE
WILL NAME BALLINGER.PIN-
CHOT INVESTIGATING COMMIT.
TEE INSTEAD OF SPEAKER.

washington, Jan. 1U.-Ine senate
committee on public lands today re-
convened and amended it's resolution
providing for the Ballinger-Pinchot
investigation so as to leave to the
house the method Of selecting its In
vestigation committee.
On last Friday the fight in the
house arose over the question of whe-
Their Speaker Cannon should name
the committee on investigation or
whether it should be left to the men,
bers of the house. On taking the
vote it was found that the insurgents
had combined with the democrats
and had taken away the power of
Speaker Cannon from naming the
committee
1t was thought by some that this
action of the house would be fore
stalled in the senate and that the
resolution would be sent back to the
house in another form
The senate committee today, how
ever, decided to leave the matter to
the house as to the method Of select
ing its investigation committee. The
result is another bump for Speaker
Cannon.
1t is said in the house today that
Representative Dwight of New York,
the republican whip, had taken the
names of the republican insurgents
in congress off his list of representa-
tives to whom he regularly sends
notices demanding their attendance
at times of division
The power of the party caucus will
be invoked in the house in an effort
to suppress the revolt of the insurg-
ents. The republican leaders decided
today that whenever the insurgents
as body differ from the majority a
caucus shall determine the party
course.
While the army appropriation bill
still engaged the attention of the
house when that body convened to-
day, the members manifested far
greater interest in the Pinchot-Ba1lin-
ger situation and the statement issued
yesterday by the republican congress
sional committee openly warning the
insurgent congressman that they
could expect no help from the admin
istration when they came up for re-
election, the insurgents were not Wis
IDLY agitated by the campaign commit
tee when they appeared at the capitol
today. Several of them have already
observed the shadows of coming
events in their districts and have ex-
pected that the organization would
fight to The end to prevent their re-
election or even their denomination.
Among the significant documents
on the insurgent situation was the
return to the insurgent camp of Rep
resentative Gardner of Massachusetts,
son-fn-law of Senator Lodge Gard
ner gave out an interview early in
the session in which he was quoted
as favoring a cessation of hostilities.
Today he stated that he some time
ago urged his insurgent associates to
adopt conciliatory course but he is
now convinced in view of the many
recent occurrences that they would be
right in not doing so. He is now in
favor of radical program of action.

BUT FEW CASES Of
DEST|TUIION
PIPER OF THE ASSO-
GATED CHARITIES REPORTS
FEWER CASES WHERE AID IS
REQUIRED THAN LAST SEASON

A. A. Piper, of the Associated
Charities of the city of Wenatchee,
states that his organization has been
actively at work this winter and at
the present time there are some half
dozen families which are being
benefited through the aid of this So
ciety Mr.. Piper states that there
are not as many calls for assistance
this winter as there were last winter
but during this recent cold spell
there has been several calls for aid.
The lodges of the city have been
instrumental during the winter of
relieving several cases of distress.
Wenatchee has but few destitute peo-
pie. Since the town was first Or
ganized there never has been any
great number of extremely poor peo-
pie The great fruit industry has
made 1t possible for women, child
rem and also men to earn good wa
ges during the fruit picking season
and as a consequence the cases of
restitution that do exist are a result
of people moving late in the fall.
President Piper wants 1t understood
that all those that are in distress
should feel no hesitancy whatever In
applying to him or any member Of
the board.
The annual meeting Of the Asso-
ciated Charities of Wenatchee will be
held some time about the first of
February. At this time the annual
election will occur ana the business
of the past year be settled up.
