COMPANY TO
ASK INVESTIGATION
CONTINUED from FIrst Page.

ator Underwood OF trying to defeat
the bill providing for a government
owned plant for the fixation of atmos-
pheric nitrogen. This charge was
made Immediately following a pro-
posal offered by the duPonts TO
build a S2O.OOO,OOO plant for the pro-
duction OF nitric acid from the air
and to agree to supply the govern
ment, at its own price, with such
acid as the government might need
for the making of munitions. The
Alabama Senator declared on the
floor OF the Senate that the duPonts
we're using the methods of lobbyists
to defeat a project then before the
Congress for the government to
build plant for like purpose.
These charges were denied promptly
and officially. The denials were accept
ed and read into the Congressional
Record. but, in spite of this, similar
charges were made again on the floor Of
te House.
Meanwhile Representative Martin b.
Madden, of Illinois, had offered a reso-
luton providing that the judiciary COM
mittee should Investigate the lobbying
activities of the agents of certain cor
porations.'
Pierre S. DUPONT, president of the
powder company, has written TO Mr..
Madden asking that action be taken on
the resolution. The reply from Mr..
Madden says that nothing can be done
now, hut II indicated that with the con
ventions out of the way the subject may
be taken up. In his letter he says;
at rs not probable that a hearing
can be held before the Committee on
Rules for sometime 10 come. as the
Naval Bill which Is now under con-
sideration. will take the time Of every

PUBLIC BUILDING LIGHTS.
To the Editor Of THE EVENING

Sir;-I have Travelled from the At
lantic to the Pacific oceans. and have
observed many beautiful buildings
throughout the country. but have
never seen one where there was such
poor taste used in the lighting propo-
tlon as that which is displayed in
front Of the new Public Building.
The very idea OF single-pole lights in
front Of such a magnificent building,
when there should have been cluster
lights. especially when there are TO
be so many other improvements in
the Immediate neighborhod. I think
somebody wants to wake up.
Yours Respectfully,

HON. HERBERT SAMUEL

London. For the first time in Eng
lands history a protesting Jew has
been made home secretary Of state.
He is Herbert Louis Samuel, who
has just taken that office as successor
to Sir John Simon.
While Disraeli became premier he
nevertheless was member of the
Church of England. But Samuel
still is strict follower of the Jewish
faith.
While postmaster general of Eng
land two years ago Samuel made an
extensive tour of this country.
AS home secretary he will have
great power in England, being, in
fact, the most direct connecting line
between King George and the English
people.
