Investigate Cause Of Delay.
CANNON TELLS HIN TO ATTEND
Speaker says A. Nebraska Representa-
tive Had Been Present Oftener
He Might Have Expedited
Matters.

WASHINGTON. Jan. Representative
Hitchcock OF Nebraska, sprang a sensation
in the house Of representatives today by
demanding an investigation Of the "irree-
ular proceeding which has resulted in
delay Of forty-nlne days In getting the re-
ports Of the Ballinger- Pinchot investigat-
ing committee report printed and into the
hands Of members of the house. An acri-
monious debate followed in which Speaker
Cannon took an active part. resenting what
he termed an implied criticism Of the chair
The housN after listening to various ex-
plantations as to the probable cause Of de-
lay. voted almost unanimously in support
Of a resolution ordering an investigation by
the committee on rules.
The resolution was introduced by Mr..
Hitchcock. It required an investigation
and report within one week. former
resolution by Mr.. Hitchcock stated that
three slips were received from the COM
mittee on investigation on December last
and sharply criticised the unexplained de-
lay, doubt and mystery in referring said
reports to the committee on agriculture"
The resolution set forth that the refer
ence was not made until December 10. The
committee did not receive the printed re-
ports until yesterday.
During that period" continued the reso.
luton, they were neither upon the speak.
ers table nor in the hands Of the commit.
tee on agriculture.
Proceedings Irregular.
Therefore, Resolved, That these irreg
ular proceedings are thus a misleading anc
! Improper treatment OF these reports. rem
dering them for six weeks unavailable ant
inaccessible, and constitute a violation o.
the proper procedure Of the house and tn,
committee on rules be hereby directed t,
Investigate and report to the house within
one week the reason for the delay ant
irregular treatment Of these reports"
Speaker Cannon said he knew nothing o
why the delay should have occurred Mr.
Cannon intlmated that il Mr. Hltcheocl
had been present In the house oftener fl
the past few weeks and had earlier calle,
attention to the matter there might no
be so much delay
Mr.. Hitchcock replied that the speaker
criticism was not justified
THE chair" said the speaker. has NJ
objection to any investigation that may b
made. The chair only desires that a mem
Der OF the house should not place the chair
the committee, or the house subject to
criticism that may be heralded on its fac
as accurate accepted possibly as a fact
by the ever vigilant and fair press OF tn
country until In an orderly course Of pro
cedure and without prejudice. the fact
may be obtained"
