MR LANG'S CHARGES. THE SOLICITORS CLEARED. (UKITED PRESS ASSOCIATION—B* ELECTRIC TELEGRAPH —COPYRIGHT.) (Received November 29th, 10.25 p.m.) SYDNEY, November 29. . The Royal Commissioner, Judge Edwards, who enquired into allegations made by Mr J. S. Lang in Parliament against the Savings Bank administration and its solicitors, Messrs Tresa and Cocks, who handle advances for homes business, finds that all Mr Lang s charges are untrue. There is not a tittle of evidence to support any one of his allegations, the Commissioner states, and there was nothing to suggest that Messrs Tress and Cocks had dealt with second mortgages or that they had transgressed the highest traditions of the legal t profession.—Australian Press Association. [Mr Lang attacked the transactions carried out by the solicitors in rogarq to the funds of the Government Savings Bank. Evidence was to the effect that nothing improper had ever occurred in the granting of loans to home builders, or tliat pressure had eyer been used to alter valuations.]
