That their suggestions shall have a certain degree of force. be it more or less binding. I should agree with the gentleman from Maine if this bill were only to investigate questions of the relations of capital and labor. that is. as concerned in lockouts and strikes. That might be a pertinent and proper subject of investigation. to hold hearings. and to report the evidence taken to this body. in order that we might be gaided in the future. but it is wrong to write ourselves down as incompetent. and to relegate to this commission questions pertaining to immigration. as to which we have just passed a bill. with full enlightenment from the distinguished gentleman from Missouri. the distinguished gentleman from Pennsylvania. and the distinguished gentleman from Massachusetts. You have passed your immigration bill. What more need of inquiry? Then as to labor. let that pass. if that were the only question.
