BROOKHART HITS RIGGED' MARKET Senator Believes Inquiry Should Be Made Into Fluc- tuating Stocks. By the Assoclated Press. Senator Brookhart, Republican, Tows, yesterday said an inquiry into recent vp-and-down movements of the stock market with a view to determining vhether a Senate committee investiga- tion is n uld be instituted be- | er elections, ced,” h recent market, t the boom and reaction wes a rigged game of crooked | uch as those disclosed It has not been an honest market in any sense. There is no doubt the market is being rigged at this time for political effect. It is a confidence game to decelve the public.” He said he would propose an inquiry if the results of a private study war- Tant asking either the Senate Banking Committee or the Special Campaign Funds Committee to go into the ques- tion. The Banking Committee, of which Brookhart is a member, last Winter conducted a spectacular series of hear- gs on stock market affairs and ob- the permission of the Senate to investigation through the| recess and into next session has _investigators at work, crating under direction of a sub- mmittee_appointed to keep the study ing. Brookhart was not named to the subcommittee. Brookhart told newspaper men he “probably” would get_in touch with Senator Norbeck, Republican, of South Dakota, chairman of the Bank- ing Committee, within a few days to discuss whether the market inquiry thould be resumed immediately. Under the committee's plan, as an- nounced at_the close of the Senate's cession, no hearings were contemplated Dbefore Congress convenes in December, Brookhart said he already had dis- cussed the matter with Senator Howell, Republican, of Nebraska, chairman of the Campaign Funds Committee, but had not as yet formally suggested an inquiry. Explaining his charge of rigging the market, Brookhart contended ‘“those engaged in the manipulation wanted a boom to occur before elections, based on the false hope of returning pros- perity.” id of the fter elections, those in the game will take the bear side by rigging the cther way and recover back from the gn expenses they have contributed,” he continued. “I| have some quite concrete proof of that. “The Stock Exchange itself is excited nd is making a check itself.” | " Brookhart | ‘Democrats | d Republicans” that after he got “certain information” | he would be ready to take the matter up with the committees. i “With the Stock Exchange raising a | hullaballoo about it itself, it may try to cork up my sources of information, | tut I don't think it can,” Brookhart concluded. | LANSBURGH'S | 7th, 8th and E Let Us Give You a Free Demonstration on this Beautiful Domestic Electric Round Bobbin Sewing Machine TYHE SUNDAY STAR, WASHINGTON, D.
