Mr. Speaker. this resolution calls for an investigation which is something in the nature of a corn mission. to make inquiry and report. We have the Immigration Commission. which was appointed some five years ago. designated to make an investigation and report on needed immigration legislation. spending about a million dollars of the public money. They have investigated and reported. and the committee of the House. as well as of the Senate itself. has acted on the report of the commission in part. and has now reported to this body a bill carrying into effect some of the recommendations of the report of that committee or commission. About June 1 I introduced a resolution. which was referred to the Committee on Rules. asking them to report out a special rule calling for the consideration at this session of the immigration bill. And before going into further commissions and investigations. I would like to inquire of the gentleman what investigation the Committee on Rules has made touching the resolution introduced by myself as -well as by the gentleman from Alabama . who reported the bill. looking to the bringing in of a special rule. for consideration before the House of the bill for further restricting alien immigration as reported by the committee?
