Mr. Grosvenor. of Ohio. offered the following amendment: Strike out section 38 and Insert in lieu thereof the following: "And there is created a commission that is provided by this section. Said commission shall make fall inquiry. examination. and investigation Into the subject of immigration." The section that was stricken out related to immigration. just as the section I move to strike out relates to the subject of discrimination.
