ALBERT.) (8prUI 8Ur Bnti CorraiMBlaM) WASHINGTON, D. C Dec. 8.i-A proposition has been made to investi gate by a committee of Congress the prevailing high prices .and short sup- Iply of sugar. It also is desired to ascertain the causes which lea to tne lessened supply and the increased fig ure at which it is sold. Representative Martin of Louisiana, who is greatly Interested in the pro duction of cane and sugar, has taken zs the initiative in tnis movement, ax szs the first opportunity after Congress convened he offered this resolution: j "Resolved, that the speaker of the J s: house of representatives shall appoint i from the membership of the house aj zss committee of seven, whose duty it j shall be to investigate, ascertain and s report to the house the causes for the existing shortage of sugar and the ; prevailing prices for available sup-! ss jjucb ill (.lie uuiicu kiuiicb, auu iv make such recommendations as may be deemed advisable to prevent if possible a recurrence of a sugar 'fa mine." I The resolution now is before the committee on rules. There is no prob-! ability of early action. It is consid ered unlikely that an Investigation, as proposed by Mr. Martin, will be ordered. There is a general disposi tion in both the senate and house to avoid all matters but those relating to the war, such as revenues and ths furnishing of materials with which hostilities may be the better prose cuted. It is not desired to-take up many features of outside legislation. For that reason it is highly improb able that the Martin resolution will be apprpved. It has been found heretofore that inquiries, such as that suggested, lead to no beneficial results. They usual ly are protracted, expensive and te dious. A mass of conflicting facts are accumulated, but" none of them form the basis for remedying the sit uation of which complaint is made.
