RESUME MONEY
Trust HEARINGS
THE COMMITTEE WILL AGAIN
BEGIN WORKING
~ALOHG Different Lines
VIII Recommend LEGISLATION That
VII More Evenly Distribute
Wealth of Country.

WAsHINGTON, Dec, begin
ming where 1t left off early last sum
mer the Pujo money trust Investigate
ing committee will resume its herr
ings here on Monday, December 9th.
+, While the committee picks up thu
thread where it was dropped last
June, it is not quite the same threod
In other words the data on which tho
committee will base It's Investigations
is an entirely new set of facts which
have been assembled by q new set Of
experts who were put on tho scent
after 1t vas discovered that the ten
thousand dollars worth OF material
gathered by the first set Of eXperts
during the summer, ran so much t.
glittering generallties that it was not
OF much If any practical value.
This does not mean that the Pu,o
committee has discarded the informa
Zion as to the operation OF high H.
nance, which 1t acquired In Its former
hearings at Washington and New
York, but 1t is merely proceeding
Slong dlffernt lines.
At the former hearings the commit
tee was greatly hampered by the lin
itations affixed to its authority in the
matter of forcing bankers to diNulgo
to the committee the secret financial
affairs of their respective institutions
At the time the committee was sit
ting at New York, Chairman Pujo an
nounced that unless congress gave 10
the committee the authority to secure
this information, by adopting the joint
resolution then pending before the
senate, future investigation Of the 90
called money trust wonld be futile.
And it was because the committee had
gone as far as It could with limited
power, that the investigation wos
closed for the time being.
Although congress adopted the res
olution granting fu'her powers to the
committee 1t Is still q disputed ques-
ton whether or not Il banker can be
forced to reveal the innermost secrets
of his bank. The contention OF the
latter class Is that the relation or 4
depositer with his banker is as sacred
as the relation existing between a man
and his doctor or his lawyer.
Samuel Untermeyer. the chief coun-
ell for the committee, has gone care
Hlly over all the data gathered by
the new set Of experts and expresses
himself as being free Of doubt as TO
the ability of the committee to not
only uncover all the facts and condi-
tions which have consummated In the
alleged concentration Of the wealth ct
the country into the hands Of few
individuals, but will be able to recon.
mend to congress legislation which
will make for a more equal distrlbu-
ton Of this wealth and block all fu-
