new PROBE OF
MONEY OCTOPUS
Sought by Representative Henry
in House Resolution
CAUSES FLUTTER IN CONGRESS
Texas Democrat Begins Hostlllties on
Administrat tito Program - Henry
Resolution viii Mean Real Scrap.

N
Resolution Will Mean Real Scrap.
The Democratic camp in Washing
ton was thrown into confusion Fri
day when Representative Robert l..
Henry Of Texas, chairman Of the house
committee on rules, presented a bill
designed to pave the way for a re-
newal Of the inquiry into the so-called
money trust.
In a statement accompanying the
bill Mr.. Henry declares that Wall
street conspirators are back of the
present movement for banking and
currency legislation and that their
only aim is to pass the Aldrich bill
veneered over so as to fool the peo-
ple.'
Whether Mr.. Henry intended it or
not, his bill and the accompanying
statement are accepted as a declara'
ton of war by radical Democrats on
the administration plan to put through
a banking and currency revision bill
at this session of congress.
The bill intf6dpeed by MIR. Henry
gives commitess teengress the sole
visitational po~efs over rational
banks and other financial institutions
exercised by the courts and the comp
troller of the currency.
The leaders are hostile to a renewal
of the money trust investigation and
will do everything possible to have
the Henry bill p~igeonholed in the
banking and currency committee to
which it was referred. Mr.. Henry an
nounced, however, that he would make
every effort to have the bill reported.
Probe of lohbies to Go Deep.
A probe into the working of Hobbies
and lobbyists will be the next move
of the special subcommittee now in
~vestigating President Wilson's allega-
lions that powerful and %insidious in
iuences have been working against
the tariff bill.
This was indicated by developments
at an executive session Of the commit
tee. Thus far the committee has COZ
fined its efforts to the sugar and wool
lobbying on the tariff bill, but it be-
lieves that there are more interesting
fields for inquiry.
Senator Jacob H. Gallinger of New
Hampshire, a Republican and father
Of the senate furnished a sensation
while on the stand.
He supplemented the attack made a
few days ago upon President Wilson
by Senator Townsend and told the
committee he thought the influences
were not superior in force to the in
huences asserted by the opponents OF
tariff reduction by the publicity cam
paign, the endless chain letters and
every other phase of outside influence.
Chairman Overman, quite upset by
the trend the examination was taking,
inquired;
do you think a member of the
house or senate could be i~ntimidated?'
"Oh, ! hope not" said Senator Gal
linger.
In answer to a question by Senator
Reed the witness replied;
when a man says that he would
hang someone as high as Hannah If
that person did not do certain things,
and that an industry which proposed
reduction of wages and did so would
be investigated, | think that is about
the worst kind of influence | can
imagine"

1t is true that many thousands OF

unable to have what they desire for
various reasons. principally because OF
lack of means.

and get all the rooms possible on a
given piece OF ground in order to gain
revenue. All sight is lost Of the ar.
tistic and everything must bepd to the
one purpose of income. The occupants
live along and constantly dream Of a
little cottage with a few vines and a
garden place in the back yard, and a
place for the children to play where
they will not be under the constant
