that the Government is ready to
proceed with the investigation au-
thorized By the Attorney General
last March.
Mr.. Mellon criticized the man.
ner in which the Government is
proceeding in its case against him.
He said:
"By such tactics an attempt is
being made to indict me for not
paying a tax that has never
been assessed or legally deter
mined. The unfairnesS, not to
speak of the animus, of such a
procedure, is obvious"
In an appeal which he is max

lish not only that there is no ad-

He concluded his statement with
the observation that had I not
been a member of the Cabinet of

WOUNDED THUG
SOUGHT HERE

Hospitals and physicians here
and throughout this territory to-
day were on the lookout for a
wounded thief who received a
charge of buckshot about 2 o'clock
this morning when the robbery of
a Darkesville (W. Va. store was
thwarted.
Police here were told to be on
the lookout for five men, one of
them wounded, but Glenn Lewis,
the storekeeper, said he saw only
two men, and they escaped in a
small roadster Or coupe. It bore
District licenses, he said.
Mr.. Lewis said he and his wife,
Mrs. Audrey Glenn, 81, were
awakened by a burglar alarm he
had rigged in the store. Both
went to the store from their home
nearby, Mr.. Lewis carrying
shotgun.
They went into the store and
the two men attacked the couple,
one of the men striking Mrs. Lewis
on the head with the butt of a
gun. Mr.. Lewis fired as the men
ran from the store, and he saw
one of the men Stagger and the
other help him into the automo-
bile. Blood was found on the
ground in front of the store, Mr..
Lewis said.
A check-up showed the men had
taken sales tax money collected
by Lewis and some of this they
lost in the fight in the store.
They got away with a very small
amount, he said.

HOUSE VOTE 81
FOR RAYBURN
MEASURE
Strict Regulation Of Security
Markets Retained After
Brisk 5-Day Fight
Bv International News Service

The Rayburn stock Market
regulation bill today faced re-
vision and liberalization IN the
Senate after receiving the over
whelming endorsement Of the
House.
with the bill labeled as must"
by President Roosevelt, Senator
Fletcher Of Florida, chairman OF
the Senate Banking Committee,
hoped to call it up within a week.
Majority 3 to 1 in House
The measure was passed by the
House by a vote of 280 to "a late
Yesterday after a five-day fight
during which every important lib
eralizing amendment was spurned.
The Senate Banking Committee,
by close vote, had already
turned thumbs down on the Ray
burn bill, which bore the endorse
ment of the so-called Junior brain
trusters," who aided in its prepa-
ration.
Instead the Senate had before it
g. bill providing for a stock eX-
change commission which would
have wide discretionary power to
prevent manipulation, rigging OF
the market and other similar prac-
tices.
Senate Files Teeth
The Senate rejected a fixed
margin on stock purchases from
brokers, while the House approved
a Is per cent initial margin and
gave the Federal Reserve Board
power to raise or lower 1t as
needed to prevent speculation or
undue deflation.
The House also entrusted the
Federal Trade Commission with
supervision of stock exchanges in
stead of the separate commission
approved by the Senate Banking
Committee.
Dissatisfied with the report of
his committee, Senator Fletcher
was expected to make a vigorous
fight for more drastic regulation
than is provided in the Senate bill.
Defended BY Rayburn
The Rayburn bill was vigorously
defended by Chairman Rayburn
CD of Texas, of the House Inter
state Commerce Committee, which
reported it. He denied that it in
terfered with legitimate business
either on the exchanges or outside
of them-but asserted that it pro-
vided means of preventing abuses
disclosed in the last few years.
The measure carries sweeping
powers for the Federal Trade Com
mission, powers so great that op-
ponents of the bill charged that it
sets up a dictatorship over in

change for silver. Both expressed
the view that legislation would be
forthcoming at the present session.
