ing a stranger in Washington. He
first came into public Office in the
Wilson Administration, in which he
was Commissioner of Internal Re-
venue. For the past twelve years
he has been engaged in the prac-
tice of law in Washington, special
izing in income tax cases, in which
his experience, as the head of the
Governments tax collecting mach
inery has been of great value to
him.
One man who will be welcomed
hack to Washington by many is
William Gibbs McAdoo, the new
Senator from California, who held
more and bigger jobs in the Will
son Administration than anybody
else. He was secretary of the Trea-
sury, director general Of the liberty
loans, director general of railroads,
and held FIVE or six more admins
trGt;ve posts, besides being the SON.
in-law Of President Wilson. Mr..
A1cAdoo is. expected to exert a pow
erful influence with the new ADJ
ministrat,on, and to take leading
part in the deliberations of the
Senate, while Washington society
is expecting MIS-. McAdoo to be one
Ct it's leading lights.
Democratic faces are not the on
~ familiar ones coming, back to
Washington after considerable ab-
sence. James w. Wadsworth, Jr.,
newly elected member Of the lower
house from New York State, was
here for six years as one Of the
United States Senator'S, from New.
York. Political historians here do
not recall any other instance of
man who has once been; Senator
coming back as a Representative;
but there was once President Of
the United. States who became a
member of the lower house of Con-
gress after he had finished his
term in the White House. That was
John Quincy Adams, who died while
making a speech on the floor Of
The House.
ThJ-e Is Work To Do.
A lot of politicians are concern
ing themselves with trying to. get
their men into the one hundred
and fifty thousand Federal jobs
which Postmaster-Gener Farley
will distribute among the faithful,
but the main concern of the new
Administration, as soon as the new
Congress assemblies, lis to get thru
some more - financial legislation
and something that will answer the
pressing problems of farm relief.
The banking situation in many
parts of the country, resulting in
the closing down and reorganizing
of big banks in many big centers,
which have stood the strain so
far, boa finally had to yield because
of their frozen assets, is reviving
talk of the Government itself 60
ing into the commercial banking
business, for which it has the nue.
leus already set up in the Recon-
struction Finance Corporation and
the Federal Reserve System. No
body can guess yet how far the
new Congress and the new Admin
istration may desire to go or sue
ceed in going in that direction, but
it is regarded as possible that some
temporary plan may be worked out
whereby Federal agencies and de-
partments may take over the ma
ton banks and operate them, as
an emergency measure, as was done
with the railroads during, the war.
f- Nobody knows yet very much "a
bout the policies of William H.
Wood;n, the new Secretary of the
Treasury, and it is regarded as
probable that the two last previous
Democratic Secretaries of the Trea-
sury, Mr.. NGcAdoo and Mr.. Glass,
both of them now in the United
States Senate, will have great deal
of influence in shaping the new
Administrator financial policies.
The Farms And Europe
j There is apparently an excellent
outlook fir early passage of some
sort of domestic allotment farm
relief measure, which would limit
