I have tried ever since becoming a member of the Judiciary Committee to point out the fact that most of those who come to us with claims do so because of the slowness of the Court of Claims in passing upon claims. A case may have been pending for years. and the cost to a man living in Louisiana of coming to Washington to see his Senator regarding what he considers to be a just claim is prohibitive. He thinks something ought to be done. The Senator is quite correct. because this committee is flooded with private claims and immigration bills which it would be impossible for any one Senator to examine. assuming the claims were divided up among Senators and that they spent some time on them.
