ator Austin asked.
Some of them have, not ALL" the
nominee said.
Gains of Rich Held Excessive.
Mr. Jackson denied the New Deals
policies have made the rich richer
and the poor poorer" The poor have
benefited, he said. but the gains of the
rich have been excessive.
Mr.. Jackson told Senator Austin he
represented business before coming to
the Government. They were the
only cash customers" he said.
Asked if he had represented any
business accused of violating antitrust
laws. ne said
Yes, represented furniture busi-
ness in my home town. The men
were charged with violating the anti
trust laws and were dragged to Chi
cago for trial l told them the evil
dence didn't look so good and advised
them to plead guilty"
Senator Austin then asked Mr..
Jackson If he thought Government
should have power of life and death
over business or mere regulatory
power
Question Held Too General.
the witness said the question was
too general 10 answer directly, but
expressed the belief Government must
have power to check evil in business
If the good is to survive.
Mr.. Jackson then denied the grand
jury proceedings in the "Geiger case"
were started to secure q consent de-
gree eliminating abuses in the auto.
mobile finance business.
There has been a great deal of
Misrepresentation about that case"
he said. But the grand jury proceed
lngs were not designed 10 coerce
consent decree" He conceded, how
ever, that there would have been no
consent decree negotiations If the
criminal case had not been instituted.
If you take away our right to start
criminal proceedings you will de-
stroy enforcement of the antitrust
laws. 1t is true the department has
used a measure of compulsion in
these cases, but that was not the
purpose of the grand jury proceedings
in Milwaukee"

Although a similar proposal was de-

the long-debated anti-lynching bill
were hopeful today that number Of
Senators would switch their stand in
tomorrow's vote on proposal to limit

Senator Wagner, Democrat. of New
York said he had heard that the Re-
publicans. who opposed the first at

Republican Leader McNary Of Oregon
replied. however. that he believed there
would be little change in the lineup
of Republicans.
An indication that there might be
some change, nevertheless, came in
the statement of Senator Townsend,
Republican, of Deleware that he had
not decided how he would vote. He
opposed the first proposal.

Texas. leader of the bills foes, COM

RULE
SOUGHT IN EUROPE
Hitler Schuschnigg Talks
Only One Sign Of
Movement.
By WALLACE r. DEUEL..


BERLIN. Feb 15,-A gigantic new
attempt to reach a fundamental set
tlement of the whole basic European
situation is now being made, il was
learned here today, and the con-
versations between Reichsfuehrer
Adolf Hitler and Austrian Chancellor
Kurt Won Schuschnigg at Berchtes-
gaden over the week end are only one
measure of the many which are being
taken in half the chancellories of
Europe in an attempt to achieve such
a settlement.
The new settlement which is being
sought is a return to the rule of
Europe-and possibly Africa as we'll
by concert" of four major Euro
pean powers, France, Germany, Eng
land and Italy. The first step, which
1t is hoped will lead toward such a
settlement, is an attempt to establish
relatively stable situation in Austria.
Guarantee of independence.
Germany will again guarantee Aus
trian independence and promise not
to interfere in Austrian internal
affairs If this step succeeds, and in
return will secure the promotion to a
cabinet post or undersecretaryship Of
DR., Arthur Seyss- -Inquart. or some
other presumably moderate" Nazi or
outspoken Nationalist"
If these first measures succeed. and
perhaps even if they do not. Hitler
In his speech before the Reichstag
Sunday will make some kind of
sweeping promise and proclamation of
peace and appeasement.
If this latest attempt to work out
a new deal for Europe fails, then
there will be return to an even
more dangerous and chaotic state of
international anarchy than that
which has ruled Europe for the past
several years.
Eden i'm Critical Spot.
Hints of possible impending changes
in the British cabinet are believed
TO fit into these efforts to reach a
fundamental agreement. Partisans of
the agreement are reported here to
have the upper hand in London, with
the result that Foreign Secretary
Anthony Eden and others, who, with
him, oppose the new plan in its present
form, are understood to be faced with
the choice of yielding or resigning.
Some kind of agreement on Spain
is also being sought as part of the
new plan.

West you 60, the less it has affected
them as yet. But everything on the
West Coast-Seattle, Portland-has
been affected greately. But it is worse

people are concentrated"
Cant Meet Problem.
Mr. Williams said he did not believe
that under any possible stretch Of
their resources the States ana cities
can meet this situation out of moneys
that they can raise through any form
OF taxation or borrowing
When Secretary Morgenthau ap-
peared for interrogation, Representa-
tive Wigglesworth, Republican, of
Massachusetts, asked him:
DO you see any end in sight for
this problem? Is it something
that will be with us forever, or do you
see any hope of solving it?"
Secretary Morgenthau said the only
solution lis for private industry and
initiative to take up this load"
The s250,00000O appropriation
would supplement the l2-month ap-
preparation of $l,69l, ,0O0. 900 Congress
allocated last year for the fiscal year
ending next July /.
The committee said that since this
ALLEGATION was made last June, en-
ployment conditions had changed
radically, adding:
No Upturn Seen.
While at the present time it ap-
pears that the situation is static the
committee has received no information
that would lead them to believe that
there was in prospect in the near fu-
ture such an upturn in business condi-
tons as would justify the appropria-
ton OF a lesser amount than that re-
quested."
Mr.. Williams had told the commit
tee employment in the construction

House group had been misinterpreted,
Mr.. Jackson said the grand jury was
not used to coerce finance companies
in the Geiger case. but that the de-
partment had used "compulsion" in
some cases.
The subcommittee adjourned until
2 pm. Senator Norris, Independent,
of Nebraska, remarking that If the
fllibuster in the Senate is still under
way we might as well return to this
filibuster"
mo one who is irked by it need
stay" Senator Austin retorted.
Reluctant to Give Opinion.
Senator Austin asked Mr.. Jackson
for his views on the fairness of bring
ing proceedings under the Wagner
Labor Relations Act at points far re-
moved from scenes of alleged viola
tions. The nominee said he would
not care to express an opinion in the
abstract, and indicated he thought
Congress should determine matters
of policy in that respect
Mr.. jackson asserted, however, that
If any proceeding should be brought
IN an improper location. the defendant
would have a right to ask the court
to dismiss the case for want of
jurisdiction.
Senator Austin then read from some
of Mr.. Jackson's brief while in pri-
vate practice to show his views on
court procedure had changed.
When Senator Norris objected to the
line of questioning. the Vermont Sen
ator said: Il merely want to show how
Mr.. jackson has changed since he left
the country and came to the big
city"
-, Senator Austin then asked if Mr.
jackson knew how much employment
could be traced to the 80 families" he
attacked in one of his speeches.
Denies Wanting Destruction.
Mr.. Jackson said he didn't know
but denied he wanted to see the in
dustrial set-ups of the go families
supposedly controlling American
wealth, destroyed.
Il think the methods by which they
operate SHOulO De zone away Will, lit
said. Mr.. Jackson admitted he had
said his only criticism of the New Deal
was that its policies were too moderate
Mr. Jackson agreed that last De.
cember IL he had said big business
had taken advantage of the recession
to attempt liquidation of the New
Deal. He objected. however, to being
questioned on portions of the speech
Il made that speech deliberately" he
said, and stand on the whole 'ad-
dress. still think it was a gooc
speech"
Discussing his personal views, he
said he favored dissolution of monopo-
listic industrial corporations and pub
lie utility and bank holding companies
in some cases.

tention that 200 corporations dominate
American business. Senator Austin
pointed out they have made money
under the New Deal.

never to think thoughts which will do
