COMMITTEE Will
RESUME HEARING
AT WASHINGTON
Investigation Into the Bank
ing and Currency Of the
Country to Be Taken Up
by House.

Washington, Dec. 7.--After months
spent in gathering data and compil-
ing statistics, the house committee on
banking and currency announces its
readiness to resume on Monday the
taking of testimony in the exhaustive
investigation 1t has undertaken with
a view to discovering whether a small
group Of rich men has a controlling
grip on the finances Of the country.
Under the direction Of Representa-
tive Pujo and Samuel Untermyer of
New York, special counsel for the
committee, experts have prepared an
elaborate compilation of statistics en-
bracing practically every financial
and industrial institution in the coun-
try, and tracing the relation Of each
individual concern to other concerns.
This compilation will be used as a
basis for the examination Of witnesses
with view to determining the exact
influence exerted by New York banks
and bankers on other banks and bank
ers throughout the United States.
Some Of the hearings are to be con-
Quoted in New York and others in this
city. It Is understood that j. Pierpont
Morgan, John D. Rockefeller, William
Rockefeller, Cleveland H. Dodge and
George w. Perkins will be among the
prominent financiers summoned to
give testimony.
The committee will endeavor first
to clear up that branch OF the inquiry
dealing with the operations of stock
exchanges and clearing house assOcia +.
tions. Without additional powers con-
ferred by congress. 1t will be unable to
complete the inquiry into the concen-
tration of money and credits An
amendment to the banking law, which
has already passed the house, would
give the committee power to obtain di-
rect information which 1t deems in.
dispensable from the national banks
Unless it is given this power the com-
mittee will be unable to complete the
investigation along the comprehensive
lines mapped out by Chairman Pujo
