A resolu tion calling for early' action by the banking and currency committee in Its investigation of the so-called money trust was introduced, in the House to day by Representative Lindbergh of Minnesota. The Lindbergh resolution sets forth that in the "many months" since the investigation was authorized the "committee seems not to have con sidered the investigation from the standpoint of securing facts to aid in early future work In framing reme dial legislation, but seems rather to have been planning an investigation as if for indictment, and: in such pur pose is blocked by those who have of fended against honest and impartial rules of business and by government officials who deem" the personal privi leges of banks so sacred that their ! business shall not be inquired IrVo, even for the benefit of the public wel fare. The resolution argues that while the committee may not have the power to obtain certain information, it should proceed immediately to secure "all the practical information and data that may. reasonably be had in. rela te tion to the influence exercised by the j money trust in the control of the j. banks and of the money and credits r as the same enter.'into commerce, bus iness and speculation and with rea sonable . promptness report . to the Hbuse from time to time.'. -A ; TO FIG-HT TONG-S - New York Criminal Courts Will De vote Much Time to Affairs of Chl-l nese Warring Factions This Month.

"In the case of Davis the evidence is conclusive that he' is" gul'ty as a conspirator. His letters 'as 'an execu tive board member of the rron work ers union show that he;"knew of the dynamite conspiracy.' There is only one reason we ask his discharge.
