Mr. Speaker and gentlemen of the house. on the 30th of April I introduced a resolution. which rends as follows: Resolved. That the Speaker appoint a select committee of three Members of the House. and that such committee shall be instructed to inquire into the need and form of a nationwido system for the dlistribution of labor and the dissemination of information in relation thereto. through an expansion of the United States Employment Service or otherwise. said committee to report its findings and recommendations to tie House of Ielresenlatives after the regular convening of Congress in December of 1924. and prior to February 1. 1925. and to cover therein. together with such other matters as they deem pertinent. the value of such a system in meeting any problems growing out of the restriction of immigration. such as a possible labor shortage. Expenses of such inquiry. not to exceed $1.500. shall be paid out of the contingent fund of the House upon vouchers approved by the chairman of said committee. to be immediately available. It is my purpose to discuss this measure briefly. although the value of securing data for the expansion of the United States Employlient Service is entirely apparent to anyone who has studied or been experienced in labor matters.
