Chairman. I offered the resolution to which I have just referred. and at the time I offered it I said to this House: The killing of General Barrundia by the Guatemalan authorities on the United States steamship Acapulco has attracted wide attention not only in this country. but in Central and South America and also in Europe. Public indignation hasinereased as the facts of this killing have become known. and publie sentiment demands that there should be athorough and searching investigation into the killing of this distinguished political refugee on an American vessel and under the flag of the United States. General Barrundia was in 1$5 the minister of war under Barrios. then President of the Republic of Guatemala. He was a man conspicuous in Central America. because of his scholarship and of his courage.
