The resolution for an investigation of conditions in the West Virginia coal strike zone was favorably reported to the Senate by the Education and Labor Committee, and was declared by Vice-President Marshall to have been agreed to by unanimous consent, but wound up by again becoming, unfinished business, a position it occupied two weeks ago.

Although 3enator Bacon made a vigorous attack upon investigation of the conduct of State officials by the Senate, and warned against such an "invasion" of State rights, Senator Goff announced that he did not intend to fight further against its adoption, and it generally agreed that it would be passed.
