THE PERQUIMANS WEEKLY. HERTFORD. N. G. FRIDAY. NOVEMBER 12, 1937 PAGE THREB ji:a?:::::sTo;i WHAT .IS TAKING PLACE BY UNITED STATES SENATOR ' Tew Menu to be a determination on tfa nart of rwinv members ' Congress to .make the special session convening -on Monday a strictly busi ness sessions Many leaders feel that ; the country is in ho mood for pro- lcVd discussion or problems 01 urae vitar importance to our people at the moment The result may be a com paratively quiet gathering of the members of the national legislature with little departure froni the pro- mi tnr -aihich t.hA WJIRIOII WS8 Call ed. However, unsettled conditions abroad always have an effect on Congress and it may be difficult to Avoid freauent discussion of world affair. r But if it is true, as farm leaders contend, that the. condition of farm crop prices is one of the reasons for . the stock market being jittery ana that the uncertain state of business ig due in part, to agricultural; condi tinna. Hraftinir of a farm program may move swiftly. Nevertheless, the rnntml is far from nettled. ..' Some evidence is available - that the West wants voluntary pro duction control and support for this aAinnt of thought mav come from th South. Certainly there will be opposition to any plan for compul- aion. In anv event, individual Senators are awaitinc with keen interest the findings of the Senate Agriculture Committee which has been holding hearimrs throughout the country How close the views of the men who till soil are with the legislation advanced at the last session is a sub- M of much interest. The real problem will be to draft a workable and equitable plan, aajust connicwng viewpoints, and do this legislative imh in a. hurrv. Whether the 4x Question will be thrown oMakfly into the special ses sion is ?iroblemaJie. There is no doubt lhat the current recession in business, with', no sure indications as to whether it will continue into 1Mb, will havo an effect on tax lesrislation. The undistributed profits tax has not worked so well in practice. &su mated totals in tax revenue have not come up to expectations. Therefore, the business horizon will be scanned closely for new promise of Federal Revenue during the months ahead, with the hope that any upward re- . vision in tax rates can be avoided. - Unemployment relief may not be a prominent subject during the special session. However, members or con gross .are watching the unemploy ment census and are hopeful that citi sen will cooperate in answering the Questionnaires so that future action mar he taken on the basis of facts. , ": In brief, every effort will be made in the special session" to make it one of reassurance to the country.; There ia no doubt that business and indus try are moving in uncertainty, labor ; strife is undoubtedly having an ef fect and peace making efforts are of concern to everyone and the third ' element in our economic life, agricul ture wants new hope and confidence that its nroblems will be riven atten , tion. If the Congress can contribute to an easing of all this uncertainty, such a proarram' deserves and should receive first thought. Obviously, in a Democracy such as ours, setfsiotiB of Congress should bring assurance, and not a disturbance of economic condi tions. - ' ..
