WASHINGTON, Feb. 2l.--Bernard NJ.
Baruch, former chairman of the War
Industries beard, and John D. Ryan
and 95 per cent OF the copper pro-
ducers of the country, were charged to
day in the House by Representative
William e. Mason, Of Illinois, with rob
bing the government Of $500 100000 in
profits In copper. Mr., Mason promised
that the incoming Attorney General
would present the copper cases crimi-
nally or civily, or both, or shall en-
deavor to give you some good reason
why"
Mr.. Mason's attack came when he
rose to a question Of personal privi-
lege to answer an editorial in The New
York Sun and Herald OF June a, 1920,
1t charged him, he said, with accusing
Bernard NJ Baruch, as chairman Of the
War Industries Board, with "stcaAA'
$500o0,o00 iii copper alone" The cd
torial added that when called upon b.
Mr. Baruch to submit proof of the al
legation Mr., Mason refused to do So
now, but declares he will amend his
statements to read that YOU and your
associates stole $500 100000 in copper
alone"
y 1t is a shocking thing said Mr.
Mason, reading the editorial, for .
member Of the House, hiding behind
the Congressional privilege to max
such an assault upon anybody and then
decline to back it up.
Evidence Given 10 Committee
Mr.. Mason stopped his reading at
this point and branded the statement
"a salseh0od" He added that he ina
submitted the proof to Mr.. Baruch am
to the House committee investigat
ing the War Department. Mr.. Baruca
he said, had asked him to present tn
evidence ''to his own Attorney Cen
eral," which he refused to do.

for he and his conspirat rs held this

trolled the markets of this country as

Representative Otis Wingo, of Arkan-
sas, raised at this point a question as
to whether Mr. Mason was just fed in
raising a question # personal privilege.
