jlN WASHINGTON I WHAT IS TAKING PLACE BY UNITED STATES SENATOR , * ' Whatever may be the differen ces of opinion among individual members to particular >?*? lat/ton or the methods of attaining the higher national income sought 1>y the President, there is general . agreement that very shortly the , Congress will get down to real , business. The debate on the so- , called antl-lynching bill has con- , tiinued the past week. Leaders are not expected to let the debate go so far as to hamper Important , legislation, though at this writing, ? , night sessions of the Senate are 1 1 planned. One thing that may end the , antl-lynch bill U the report of , conferees on the fafm bill. The j conferees hare been hojdlng ses- | sions almost daily since January j 3. made many adjustments, and a , report on the measure may be ex pected very shorrty. The D?P?rt" ( ment of Agriculture Is pointing ( out that the delay Is harmful to , agriculture. Thus the demands of ) farmers will be quickly placed , ahead of the demands of the un sound and unnecessary lynch law. Many members of Con- , , gress are now realizing that too 4 little attention has been given to ( agriculture as a real base for re*|( covery. . . < Equally as important as tne ( , farm bill is tax revision. The j House is now holding hearings in { an effort to adjust tex laws to encourage small business. Indica tions are that the Senate may go | even further than the House in holding out tax relief to business and industry. Too many business leaders not connected with nn anclal powers" are contend ng that taxes more than anything else are discouraging new capital expenditures and thereby retard ing employment. Clearly, it is generally agreed that business can not be expected to operate on too small a margin in good years and bear losses in bad years. Capital will not flow Into that sort of busi ness. The new tax program may lead to more careful spending of Federal funds and also care in Federal lending. From the standpoint of labor, passage of a modified wage and hour law to protect against ruth less wage-cutting seems more promising. In addition, labor and capital may be expected to unite in bringing about recovery, while the government) will continue , work relief to take up the slack of the unemployed. ? The drive against monopolies may drift into revision of the an; ti-trust laws and strengthening of the Federal Trade Commission. Some distinction may be made as between various types of holding companies. Only those which mulch the public through stock , manipulations are expected to draw real fire from the Congress. One of the most hopeful as pects of the Congressional Biwia tion is the evidence of new busi ness cooperation. President Roose velt has had a series of confer ences at the White House with numerous leaders in the various fields of labor, industry and fin ance in the past ten days. As t-he result of these heart to heart talks a more conciliatory atmos phere has developed among the different groups who have the power and influence to aid in bringing about a more speedy business recovery, throughout the Nation.
