1 A SENATORS MAY AR DEPRESSION PLANS Resolution by Harrison Pro-| vides Survey With Prom- inent Witness. BY DAVID LAWRENCE. Seeking enlightenmenf for the new sdministration on the way out of the depression, the Senate has before it a resolution introduced by Senator Har- rison of Mississippi, Democrat, future chairmsn of the Finance Comieitice, providing for a survey of all plans deal- ing with current economic problepns It is likely that when the resol passes a subcommittee will be appointe to prepare invitations and arrange for extensive hearings on all phases of the economic situation. Leaders of every ground affected by questions of the hour will be summoned with the idea of obtaining the best thought of the country in preparation for the tasks of the new administration ‘While nothing has been said about this aspect, it is taken for granted that President-elect Rooseveit is in thorough sympathy with the plan and is looking forward to the testimony, believing it may result in a clarification of the Pressing problems that lie ahead. Views of Noted Men. ‘There would not be time enough to hear all the people who have plans to solve the depression, but, on the other hand, there are outstanding men in business, banking. political science eu-| thorities and economists reflecting vary ing points of view, who may be expected to throw light on the job before Con- gress. Relatively little is known as yet on| Capitol Hill as to the exact way that| Mr. Roosevelt plans to tackle the eco- nomic dilemma that confronts the Na- tion as well as the world, but he is represented by his friends here as de-| siring to proceed cautiously until he feels sure of the plan that seems best, and then to carry on aggressively in | executing such plan. With the coming of a new adminis- tration it is felt that politics, at least, for the time being, will be adjourned sufficiently to focus attention on solu- tions of economic ills and that leading men will be willing to come h:re and really express disinterested judgments on what ought to be done by the Gov- ernment to accelerate economic re- eovery. Heretofore the opinion of outstand- ing leaders has ‘been sought in piece- meal fashion by various committees and the questions have been viewed from | 8 controversial angle and often "lthi the presidential campaign in mind, Tt 1s assumed that a general survey taking into account the situation as a whole will lead to constructive suggestions that will have been weighed as to their soundness by the authorities who will sponsor them. | Would Limit Invitations. | An eflm‘wlll :eecox:-‘g: w{yre\;ent the inquiry from 8 free-for- ol on quack plans, by limiting the in- | vitations to persons who have achieved | jons of prominence in the aca-| ic as well as the business or pro- | fessional world.

There is grave danger that they will have to give up their operations.
