Before Committee
BY Associated Press

Washington, d. c.. July Paul NJ.
Warburg, of New York, to-day for
mally requested President Wilson to
withdraw his nomination to be a men,
ber of the Federal Reserve Board. The
President will do so to-day.
Mr. Warburg, a member of the
banking house of Kuhn, Loeb e. Co.
was nominated for q four-year term.
When the Senate banking committee
began examining personally all the
five candidates nominated by the
President Mr.. Warburg indicated he
did not wish to be questioned by the
committe as a condition to taking the
appointment. To-day he called the
White House offices by telephone and
personally requested the President To
withdraw his nomination.
There was no indication who the
President might choose to fill the
place. The change in personnel, how
ever, will not further delay the actual
organization of the new CURRENCY svs-
tenn. The Senate already has con-
firmed w. p. G. Harding, A. C. Miller
and Charles S. Hamlin as members of
the board. and they, with Secretary
McAdoo and Comptroller Williams
who serve as members, ex-officio. con-
stitute quorum, which now NAV pro-

Moses Friedman Wants
Investigation Resumed
Special 70 The TcIcgrath

Philadelphia, July 7.-Moses Fried
man, until recently Superintendent of
the Carlisle Indian School, last night
Indignantly threw down the offer of
the Department of Justice to drop fur
ther inquiry into his administration of
the Carlisle school and challenged the
government to complete the investi-
cation which was instituted by the Bu-
reau of Indian Affairs. Mr.. Friedman.
who has been visiting friends in Phila-
delphia since he resigned from the
superintendency of the school late in
May, was reused by the publication
yesterday of a dispatch from Wash
ington which said that the Department
of Justice had decided to take no fur
ther notice of the case because the
acts alleged against Mr.. Friedman are
now covered by the statute of limi-
tatons.
II want this inquiry to go on until,
as must be the result. my reputation is
vindicated and the conditions which
drove me to resign are shown to be
the result of carefully planned perse-
cution at the hands of the Bureau of
Indian Affairs. under Commissioner
Sells. The intimation that | was dis
missed on account of irregularities and
| incompetency, and that the charges
were established in fair investigation,
is one more manifestation of the cam
paign which has been directed against
me and which l can no longer endure
in silence

For Their Old Positions
Bp AsSoeiated Press

Pittsburgh, July THE expected
rush of strikers to claim their old jobs
at the plants of the Westinghouse
companies did not take place this
morning although a hundred or more
men were added to the working force
in the electric shops. State troopers
and stripe pickets were to be seen
everywhere but they experienced no
difficulty in maintaining the good or
der that has characterized the strike.
Leaders of the men declared the new
workers were brought from Pitts
burgh. but company employees said
they were from the ranks of the strik-
ers.
Many applications for food were re-
ceived at the strikers commissary and
all demands were promptly met A
free lunch room for single men opened
to-day, did a rushing business at the
breakfast hour. 1t became known
that a number of radical labor leaders
had asked the general committee for
permission to address the strikers, but
when they were told they must not
advocate violence, it was stated, they
withdrew their requests.

Funds are required, and the present
members of the party should be given
an opportunity to show their interest,"
in the work by their financial ald,
officers say.
"Dr. Shaw's idea of self-denial in the
matter of soda fountain indulgences
is an excellent one for this purpose.
] feel that a great majority of the
women of the county will be ready TO
deny themselves the refreshments TO
aid the cause of votes for women,
said one of the officers of the Dauphln
county party to-day.
"Our plans are not yet perfected,
but tentatively, | should say, they will
be to divide the county into dis
tricts, centering each district in some
large city or town. and placing a suff-
ragist or committee of suffragists in
charge of each. There may be novel
notifications of the dry plan, which
will be made later in maturing the
idea"
Another plan being considered is
the continuation of the self-sacrifice
period to include two weeks time.
Officers of the first district of the Wo-
man Suffrage party in Dauphin county
which includes Harrisburg are DR..
Ruth Deeter, vice-leader; DR.. Maud
Exley. treasurer; Mrs. c. Giles Flower,
secretary. If this plan is carried out
the first two weeks in August will
probably be selected as the time.
1t is likely that the Central Penn
sylvania Suffrage Association, which
operates in Harrisburg, and of which
Mrs. Mabel Cronise Jones is president
will cooperate in the movement, al
though this could not be determined
to-day as Mrs. Jones is out of the
city.
