ABANDON WHARF
PROBE, IS VIEW
HOUSE SPEAKER
Wants HoIdoyer Senators to
Investigate and Report at
1919 Session

Abandon the investigation of Piers
s, 8 and 10 for the present session OF
the legislature. Let the holdover SEN
ators form a committee and, during
the coming two years. make the inves-
tigation and report their findings to
the 1919 legislature. ....=
This, says Speaker H. l.. Holstein,
seems to be the only solution to a
problem over which tae senate and
house of representatives have practi-
cafly split An investigation Of the
trouble arising out of the construc.
ton of the piers in question was be-
gun in a small way early in the ses-
sion by the public lands committee
of the house, which later invited the
senate to join in the probe with a
view to saving expense.
I'VE were turned down wnen We
passed a concurrent resolution asking
the senate to join in the investiga-
tion," says Speaker Holstein. Il can
not understand why there should be
two separate Investigations Of one
matter. .....
1T would appear that such an in.
Yestigation is going to cost the peo-
pie lot of money, probably between
$4,000 and $4,000. Engineers will have
to be employed. These engineers will
have to have audit engineers and
there will have to be still more en-.
gineers to check up on the work Of
the others. -.
ct seems to me that the follower
senators should form a committee
and make this investigation during
the next two years and present re-
port on their findings to the 1919 leg
islature. '@ ~. .--.:... -
Il don't believe the legislature will
have time to properly carry cut an in
vestigation during the present ses-
sion. Only about 80 days remain and
| don't believe hat is time enough. )"
The house committee has been pa
tiently waiting to hear what the SEN
ate committee is going to do. Rep
resentatiye N. K. Lyman, chairman,
who has been probing into the mat
ter of getting engineers, says a single
engineer may cost the legislature $500
and it may be necessary to employ a
