Mr.. STEARNS Of Aroostook: Mr..
President, the judiciary committee feel
| that they have done all they could in
attempting to procure the passage Of
| this bill. which seems to them most
| just measure The Senate has also
done its duty in giving the bill pas
sage, but in view of the action in the
House it seems almost hopeless for the
| Senate to insist on its vote, and it
would be unwise, as it seems to the ju-
dietary committee. to have any further
discussion upon it. So. Mr.. President,
