We now have an Interstate Commerce Commission. well organized and well equipped to do this same work. but if this burden was imposed upon the Interstate Commerce Commission it would not provide room for new and highsalaried men. clerks. and stenographers. as the new commission will. We are fast becoming a government of commissions. every one of which. as soon as it is fastened upon the people. makes itself felt by enormous appropriations to support and maintain it. One of the most noted of these commissions is the Immigration Commission. created in 1907. This commission has expended $782.992.62. Many other instances like this could be cited. showing an utter waste and disregard of the peoples money.
