The article reports that recent developments in the U.S. Senate "investigation" of the stock market, including the abrupt resignation of Ben Irving Cooper as chief investigator for the Banking and Currency Committee, makes it abundantly plain that the committee is prepared to abandon the inquiry with a minimum of ceremony. Cooper's discovery that he was not to have a free hand in investigating the New York Stock Exchange was but the latest in a series of such discoveries by the investigators who preceded him.
