CONERESSPROBES WL B RESUNED Banking System and Post Office Lease Inquiries to Start in November. b B e Assooiated Press. ‘Oongressional investigations, new and will swing irito action soon after ‘November 4 election brings a halt % the campaigning activities of mem- bers. Two new Senate inquiries will get @nder way during November—one dealing with the banking system, the other with leases of post office build- ings. The Senate's study of campaign ditures and the House investi- of Communist activities will resume full sway. Senator Glass, Democrat, Virginia, chairman of the Senate committee di- rected tto inquire into the banking system, has set November 15 for open- these hearings, tor Blaine, Republican, Wiscon- sin, is chairman of the committee which will examine leases of Govern- ment temporary post office buildings. ‘While no date for these hearings has been fixed, his workers are prqg‘ned to open hearings early next month. The House Communist Investigating Committee, under the leadership of Representative Fish, Republican, New York, will move to the South after election to pursue its work. There is a possibility a subcommittee may be sent to Mexico. The Senate Campaign Funds Com- mittee will seek to bring together the loose ends of its wide-ranging investi- gation during November. The Colo- rado Senate race probably will receive first attention, along with the Ne- braska contest, in which Chairman Nye is now trying to unravel the events leading up to the attempt of a second George W. Norris to file against Senator George W. Norris for the Republican senatorial nomination. , Considerable interest 1is manifest here in the banking inquiry, which the Senate directed to go into the use of Federal Reserve facilities in speculation on the stock exchanges. Senator Glass intends to make a com- prehensive study of the entire national banking system, but he also is pre- pared to give attention to the stock exchanges with a view to finding a “deterring penalty” to prevent use of Federal funds in speculation. Radio Ruins Camera Repair Trade. NEW YORK (N.AN.A).—Two large camera stores have taken away their trade from a New York camera repair- man and are giving it elsewhere. The reason for this is that the man has fallen in love with the radio and keeps it going all day long as he works. It distracts his mind, he says, and, alas, that is all too true. - (Covyright, 1930. by North American News- paper Alliance.) THE - EVENING STAR, WASHINGTON, D. C, FRIDAY, OCTOBER 24, 1930. VICTORIA REGARDED WILHELM AS BEING DEVOID OF FEELING Letters Just Published Reveal Queen Had Decided Viewpoints of Her Own About Contemporaries. By the Assoclated Press. LONDON, October 24.—Letters of the | late Queen Victorla describing her grandson, Kaiser Wilhelm II, as “a hot-headed, conceited and '~ wrong- headed young man, devold of all feel- ing,” were among the revelations made yesterday in a book compiled from confi- dential royal sources, including the archives of Windsor Castle, Victoria also said that - Gladstone, then prime minister, “will ruin the | country if he can,” the documents dis- close. The volume, edited by George Earle Buckle and published by the firm of John Murray, shows that King Albert’s | Widow had decided viewpoints of her own, whatever might have been the| views or intentions of the government | officers of her time. Permission to publish these royal se- | crets, hidden from the world for 40| years, was given by King George and, in the case of some of the letters, per- mission was said to have been secured also from the former Kaiser at Doorn. | Regarding Wilhelm, she wrote: “How | | private character.” months after his beloved and noble °s death, going to banquets and : It is very indecent and very unfeeling.” of th‘gEmpPrar Frederick, the kalser's | father, she wrote: ‘“None of my sons could be a greater loss to me. He was so0 good, so wise and so fond of me; and now?” Victoria referred to A. J. Balfour afterward the Earl of Balfour, thus: “Lord Salisbury named his clever and | agreeable nephew as the person fittest to succced him (she refers to Balfour | succeeding Sir M. Hicks-Beach as Irish secretary) and I was just going to make the same suggestion.” The Queen would not admit to her court, nor have as ministers persons whosé reputation she did not approve. For example, she declared that she would not accept Sir Charles Dilke as minister “on account of his dreadful Dilke had been | named as co-respondent in a divorce case. The Queen said, * 8ir C.
