Against G. O. P.

By the Associated Press
House Democrats have deferred their
try for congressional investigation of
Federal money activities, but one of
their number thinks the Republican
campaign Is financed out of the Treas
ury Of the United States"
Representative O'Connor, Democrat,
of New York made this statement on
the House floor yesterday when ex-
planning that he differed with Chair
man Pou of the Rules Committee on
the advisability Of dropping the in
veStigation.
Watch the tax refunds and the
campaign contributions between now

what :! say" O'Connor shouted. Il
make this statement advisedly.''

Treasury appealed to us not to make
the investigation until December" he
went on. He gave as his reason that
the Treasury had just undertaken the
working out of the new tax law
Mr.. Meyer, governor of the Federal
Reserve Board, said the Federal Re-
serve System was working as well as
II could; that there was nothing un-
usual about large gold shipments leav-
Ing the country"
OConnor lnIerred that there must

for poStponement of the investiga-
tlon; pointing out that the election

mittee action as did Representative
Cox, Democrat, of Georgia, the latter
asserting testimony supporting the in
VeStlgation simply was a reiteration of
old charges made on the floor of this
House for years"
Pou explained the Rules Committee
action had delayed the study, but that
these great returns to corporations Of
taxes paid should be analyzed and ex-
am1ned by committee of the House
or committee of both houses.
Speaker Garner, he continued, had
shown a willingness to postpone the
study "for the public interest"
The Speakers attitude was that If
Republicans agreed the inquiry should
be started. Some Republican members,
however. objected Representative Smell

limit of it's resources If he gets the

ber is on.
Roosevelt Speaks at Buffalo.
Sweeping into Western New York,
Franklin D. Roosevelt, the party's lead
ing candidate at this time, combined
two of the current national problems
in an address at Buffalo. He reiterated
a previously expressed stand that State
control of liquor would solve the prohi-
bition question, and at the same time
provide ample revenue for State govern
ments that desired to license the dis
tribution of intoxicants. Those were
the only illusions to national affairs
made by the New York chief executive,
who has "a delegates instructed for
him.
Gov. William H. Murray Of Oklahoma,

in the race by plans to enter the Georgia

the presidency, but would be a candi-
date for the Democratic nomination II
the demand became strong enough as
evinced by the attitude Of Democrats

Shouse, who favors leaving the conven-

as victory for Democracy the action
of the Florida State Executive Com
