Senator Sutherland has been at work
during the winter on a special com
mittee with one of the largest tasks in
Congress before 1t, and one which many
lawyers think will as much as any other
Feature distinguish the work of the
Sixtieth session. This was to revise
the United States code. especially the
code having TO do with criminal mat
tiers. and 1T was task requiring
lengthy investigation into statutes pass
ed by many different sessions of Con-
gress.
Whon asked TINS morning about the
progress of this work Senator Suther-
land stated that the work had proved
very interesting, and would be OF inn
portance TO the country when finally
completed, as 1t would do away with
