The hi) was drafted in the Judiciary committee from a num t'or of mr-Hstirea tinder consideration. Tt was reported by Mr. Overman and Ita provisions were explained hy him to the Senate. A substitute by Mr. Burkett was disagreed to. The Overman bill was opposed by Mr. Moyhurn on the ground that the rreat distances between the Federal court In the West would operate to delay the granting of necewsary Injunctions. Mr. Knox fa vored, passage of the bill and opposed Mr. Heyburn'a arguments. The Senate discussed at length the bill to appropriate the prnr-eeds from the sule of oertnln public land to the recla mation of swamp land, but made little progress toward lis passage. Mr. Overman explained that the bill prohibits the granting: of sm-h. Injunc tions except by a majority of three judges, two at least of whom are re quired to be clrrult and the third either a Circuit or tMntrlct Judge. As Justice Harlan recently said in his rtlsenting opinion In the case of Attorney-General Young, of Minnesota, said Mr. Overman, "we have rome to a pretty pass when one Federal Judge can enfrin an official of a state from thf enforce ment of a law passed by the Ix'glHature of the state.' The fact that the bill applies only to Injunctions against tho enforcement of state laws, was made prominent by jvir. Knox, who declared it would not endanger proper enforcement of the law under the preaent mothoda. PUT MEMBERS ON RECORD Ivan d- ; ra n t H cso I u t Ion Will Vn ss Ifotiso jxt Wcfk.
