Background
As early as December 12, 1911, the lawyer Samuel Untermyer supported the creation of such an investigation,
encouraging Lindbergh to continue ghting for its creation despite early setbacks. Untermyer, a strong proponent of the investigation himself, eventually came to
be the committees counsel. [3] Despite being called the
Pujo Committee, in March of 1912, approximately a
month after it received authorization, Pujos wife became
ill, forcing him to take an indenite leave of absence
from the investigation. His successor was Representative
Hubert D. Stephens of Mississippi.
