Book excerpt: Excerpt from Proposed Amendment to Transportation Act, 1920, Vol. 3: Hearings Before the Committee on Interstate and Foreign Commerce of the House of Representatives, Sixty-Seventh Congress, Second Session on H. R. 6861 and H. R. 8131 Before Mr. Elliott begins may I ask the Chair, in respect to the action just taken by the committee, about to-morrow? Am I to understand from that that we need have no witnesses present to-morrow? The chairman. The Chair, of course, has no more light on the subject than Mr. Thom, but, so far as he dare with propriety to make a suggestion, it would seem as if 15 minutes ought to be enough for us for executive session if the question of postponement of the mileage bill is the only matter involved; but in order to make the suggestion of time to be worthy of more serious con sideration than the Chair's own judgment, I think it would be well to take an expression from the committee as to whether they support the Chair's opinion that 15 minutes will be long enough. If there is anyone who has Objection to that point of view, will he kindly indicate it in some way? About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
