American Political Science Review, 1942, vol. 36, issue 5, 906-915

Abstract: Between 1920 and 1940, the General Assembly of Indiana through resolution or act authorized no less than twenty-four special interim studies of legislative problems. In addition to these, the governor on eight different occasions set up commissions to study and report on matters of legislative concern. Diligent search has failed to disclose any evidence of activity on the part of a fourth of these commissions, but the others turned in reports averaging one hundred pages in length and at an average cost of $4,000.
