about six weeks must pass be-
fore the new Congress - the
seventy-siXth - officially comes
into being, but Washington il
anything but relaxed these
days, as one might expect.
There is no relaxation for the
thinker-upperS. They are sit
ting up late nights. There is
no let up for the pulse-feeling
observers, for although they
have talked and lXritten them
selves into analytical eXhaus-
ton, they have another impor-
tant question that can't be
answered until the Congress
cOnveneS.
That question is this: What
attitude will develop toward
business, and what, therefore,
S the rate of economic recov-
cry? Too many "ifs" loom on
the Washington scene now to
guess whether future emphasis
will be on recovery and jobs
or upon new reforms.
Almost no one in Washing
ton denies that the pendulum
has swung back toward the
middle OF the road, but the
Capital spectators are wonder
ing if it has swung back far
enought the completely discour-
age those who put reforms
anead OF Jobs. Many think that
it has not. They say the cap
and-gown theorists who work
back stage, safe from approval
or alsapprOval at the polls be-
cause they are political appoint
eeS, will still crack the whip for
more regulatory must" Iegis-
lation.
Another IF" adding to the
empleXity of the question con-
Germs the tax and budget prob
lem. Another IF" concerns more
experimental spending. B
there is almost general agree
ment on all sides that the
great question ahead political
ly, is spending versus taxation.
# the spending goes forward
without limit, taxes must be in
creased upon the middle classes
Many believe it was the pinch
of the tax collector upon this
group that changed many votes
against the spenders in the re-
cent election. So the question
that is posed is to continue
spending and jeopardize a re-
volt of the middle classes, or
drop the spending and leopard
ize a bareback from those on
relief who want to stay there
and are not looking for Jobs.

Mr.. Warning said he paid s4OO
month IN 1884 and $1,000 a month
IN 1885 and took care Of the protec-
ton himself. Mr.. Cox asked him If
the protection money showed on the
numbers books which were being
examined and Mr. Warning said no,
it didn't"
The question was raised while

the defendants for one of the years
under investigation. This was not
explained, Mr.. Leese said.
Said Sum Was Doubled.
Later in his testimony. Mr.. Leese
said Emmitt told him the protection
money paid in 1885 was virtually
doubled in 1886.

By the Associated Press.
LONDON, Nov. 16.-The British
Cabinet today sought means of aid
ing German Jews and awaited Nazi
reaction to mass migration plan
attributed to United States Am
bassador Joseph P. Kennedy.
The proposal to move the Ger
man Jews to North and South
America and to parts of the British
Empire was brought before the
cabinet at its regular Wednesday
meeting
Consultations are under way
among Great Britain. the United
States, France, Belgium, the Meth
erlands, Denmark and Switzerland
on the problem growing out of the
recent wave of anti-Semitic meas
ures in Germany.
Committee Call Considered.
Official sources said the British
government was considering calling
a meeting of the ntergovernmental
committee on refugees set up at
Evlan- -leS-Bains, France. last July.
The purpose of the session would
be to study what can be done for
Jews in Germany.
Britain also is considering the
status of a contemplated visit to
Berlin by George Rublee of the
United States, head of the commit
tee, who wants to discuss with Nazi
representatives some means of
starting the orderly emigration of
refugees. 1t was said the British
government may bring further
pressure on Berlin to receive Mr..
Rublee
1t was stated authoritatively that
diplomatic representatives of the 81
powers represented at Evian-les-
Bains had made separate representa-
tons to the Berlin foreign office
about two weeks ago requesting that
Mr.. Rublee be received. No answer
has been made by Berlin, however
beyond the statement that the re-
quest would be considered. Mr..
Rublee is now in London, ready to
go to Berlin.
An international conference may
be called, as suggested by Premier
Hendrikus Collin of the Neither
lands yesterday.
One of the biggest problems was
the attitude of Adolf Hitler toward
efforts of other powers to relieve
the Jews. Germany, now smart
ing under foreign denunciation of
the anti-Jewish disorders, may be
inclined to snub advances to her
on the question.
President Roosevelt's strong con-
demnation of Germany's treatment
of Jews was played by British news
papers as the biggest story of the
day, while various groups in Britain
continued to protest against the
Nazi anti-Semitic wave.
Boycott Demanded.
Five thousand Jews meeting in
the Whitechapel section of Lon
don's East End demanded a boy
colt of German goods. The Labor
party took the first step to open
debate in the House of Commons
on the Jewish situation.
