Then Daugherty seemed a little more interested in the tobacco situation. He even pent some atto: the dffpffrtment to confer with the Trade Commission, but even after that nothing resulted. Every tobac co ease remained unprosecuted. Senator Wheeler caused a laugh when at this point he said, “Well, the Keller investigation did some good, then, after all.” V Thompson’s testimony links the former attorney general with neg lect of duty and wrongdoing more thoroughly than any evidence that has yet been produced. The expecta tion is that the tobacco probe pro ceeds further inactivity will be dis closed for there are a great many ^ases pending against the tobacco companies in which so far the Com mission knows absolutely nothing has been done.
