BRANDECEE. GIVES HIS REASONS
For Offering Amendment Not Abolish Commerce Court Believes That It is Wise to Retain ItHe Would Not De- feat Adoption of Meritorious Deficiency Bill

read a very able public document that was presented here this afternoon up- on this question by the senator from Florida. I feel that we are not treat ing ourselves fairly to rush this great question through here upon the eve of the dispersion, at least, if not the re- cess or adjournment of congress. Yet do not want to raise the question of the absence of a quorum; neither do want to defeat the immediate adoption of this meritorious deficiency bill.
 Yet, there we are. These eight pages of technical legislation fairly briStle with intricate legal queS tionS that have been matters of controversy in the courts, and in this body, and before the committees that generally and appropriately would have jurisdic- ton over this matter
 The proposed legislation, l am satis- fled, is more or less confusing. l have certain amendments to it that l should like to prepare and offer 1 should like to hear discussion upon them. wish this matter could be stricken from the bill, and let the appropriation bill be passed. If it should be the firm, fixed intention of the senate to abolish this court, it can be done on the first Monday in December, when congress reconvenes. Under the committee amendment 1t is proposed to continue the court until the first of December. I do not feel that it is fitting for this great body to rush lightly into the mass of legislation that we have not made up our minds about; and 1, for one, feel the seriousness of it. I feel my individual responsibility as keenly as I feel my powerIeSsness to treat the subject as 1t deserves to be treated, and to inform myself as we'll as I would like to be inforlned."'
 Mir. Brandegee's amendment was lost.
