EXCHANGE PROBE
URGED BY BORAH
Idahoan Answers Bankers
Charge That Tariff Fight
Caused Crash.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
= An investigation of the New York
Stock Exchange Is suggested by Sena-
tor Bcrah of idaho in answer to a bank
er'S assertion that the recent collapse of
security prices. was caused by the tariff
activities Of the Senate Democratic
independent Republican coalition.
Selling upon this statement as chal-
lenge, Borah, q leader of the independ-
ent group, limited at such an inquiry,
but did not go to the point of introduce
ing a resolution providing for this
course.
Meanwhile, the Senate was confront
ed with notice from Helm of Alabama
of a call for action today upon his reSo-
luton providing for an inquiry into
speculative activities on the New York,
New orleans and Chicago Cotton Ex-
changes and the effect of stock price
trends upon the price of cotton.
Agrees to Let Senators Probe.
In its original form the Heflin reso-
luton provided for an investigation by
the Federal Farm Board, but the Ala
baman later agreed to accept an amend
ment under which the inquiry would be
conducted by the Senate.
The statement that the coalition was
responsible for the Stock-market collapse
was MADE, B0rah SAID late yesterday, by
Fred I. Kent, director of the Bankers
Trust Co. of New York, in a speech be-
fore an audience of New York bankers.
Borah asserted that IAN institution
which gets frightened because agricul-
ture is making an honest fight for exist
ence is not worth preserving" and add
ed, but that is not the matter with the
Stock Exchange. Kent" he said, like
ly knows more than he wants
to tell"
Wants People to Get Facts.
He went on to say that "since Mr.
Kent and his cheering listeners have
stated a false reason for the doings on
the exchange, 1t might be well to in
vestigate the exchange and give the
people the real facts"
The coalition, he continued, has made
no attack upon the protective system,
but is attempting to prevent uncon-
scionable raises in industrial duties
which would amount to an embargo"
He declared that industry now Is in
possession Of SO per cent Of the domes-
tic market.
The purpose of his coalition colleagues,
he added, is to establish the principles
of equality in the protective system "as
between agriculture and industry" and
If this equality shakes the Stock Ex-
change to the earth, let 1t CO."

becomes Involved in scandal through no
fault of her own, Queen Mary remains
her friend
The son of Lord and Lady Ampthill,
when he tried to divorce his wife, be-
came chief figure in as unsavory a
case as has ever occupied the English
law courts.
Lady Ampthill was one Of Queen
MaryS ladies-in- waiting and 1t distress
ed her majesty that lady of her court
should have to be witness in such a
case. But never did the affair make
the least difference in the friendship
Queen Mary had for her lady-in-wait-
ing. No one sympathized more sim
cerely with Lady Ampthill than Queen
Mary.
The only occasion when Queen Mary
made an obvious effort to please any
one was when President Wilson and
Mrs. Wilson became the guests of King
George and herself at Buckingham
Palace after the war.
Wanted wilson's TO Like Her.
The visit of the Wilson's to the Eng
lish court was immensely important.
New relations had sprung up between
England and America. The visit of the
President to King George was the first
outward, visible expression OF these re-
lations.
Pages might be written about it. SUI
fee it to say that after the departure
of the President and Mrs. Wilson, Queen
Mary said to a lady-in- waiting:
II hope Mrs. Wilson liked me-"
That probably was the only time the
strong -willed English Queen had ever
expressed concern over what any guest

crowned heads Of Europe) might think
of her.

Queen Mary has few intimate friends
such as the late Sir leighton Probyn
or Miss Charlotte KnollyS was to Queen
Alexandra.
Sir Deighton Probyn, controller of
Queen Alexandra'S household, died at
90 at Sandringham House, attended in
his last hours by the aged royal lady
whose devoted servant and friend he
had been for nearly SIS years.
Once, not long before his death, he
travelled from London to Sandringham
on cold Winter night because Queen
Alexandra wished to see him on per-
sonal affair.
Would Die for Her.
"You have come" said Queen Alex
andra "at great risk to your health, 1
fear. 1t was selfish Of me to ask you"
You know how willingly would die,
nm, to perform the least service for
you" replied the courtly gentleman, and
he meant 1t.
There is something in the nature Of
Queen Mary that has prevented her
from admitting any one, outside her
near relations, to real and genuine in
timacy.
Never since her marriage has she al
lowed any one with whom she has been
brought into contact to forget that she
is a royal" Of the highest rank. en-
titled always to the difference and re-
spect due her high rank.
Always "YOur Majesty"
In her own household today there
are three WoFnen--the Dowager Countess
of BradfordE the Dowager Countess of
Airlie and lady Bertha DawkinS-who
have known Sner majesty since her mar
riage and who for years have come into
daily contact with her. But not one of
these women, intimately as. they know
Queen Mary, would dream of address,
ing her as May"
Yet Miss Charlotte Knollys in private
life always addressed Queen Alexandra
as "Alix" There existed a friendship
that effaced differences in rank
In general society Lady Algernon
Gordon Lennox is one Of Queen Mary's
most intimate friends. A short while
ago Queen Mary met Lady Algernon at
some function. She had not seen Lady
Algernpn for some little while and was
very glad to meet her again, so glad
that her majesty kissed her, rare
greeting for Queen Mary to beStow on
any of her friends. But she allowed
Lady Algernon time TO drop her a
curtsey first
Sincere in Friendships.
Queen Mary is sincere In her friend
ships. Queen Alexandra admitted
people, to whom she took a fancy at
first, rather readily to friendship.
Later, If they did not continue to please
her. she dropped her friendship as
readily as she had given 1t.
That is not the kind Of thing Queen
Mary has ever done. She has always
been extraordinarily careful about adj
hitting any one to what might be called
friendship and so has never had rea-
son to drop any Of her friends.
Ultra respeetabiltty has always been
sine SQua In any one admitted to
anything like friendship with Queen
Mary. But II q friend Of her majesty
