Washington, Feb. 25. The troubled international outlook, including Europe and the Far East, is causing the Administration anxiety and influencing its policy in many directions.

Caution, for instance, is being exercised in initiating any moyos In Congress which might serve to nggravate the situation, and for this reason, it is likely that the war debt and World Court issues will not reach Congress at the present time, perhaps not even during the present Scasion.

Some recommendations tariffs may be forthcoming shortly | fiebslad's Chow Fan, 152. though there is ngitation for delay,

Some people believe that the President is withholding his pro- posed Tariff Message because he dues not want to provide any mora controversial matters which might delay the session of Congress be- yond June 1 at the latest,

Republican opposition to the assignment of powers by Congress to President Roosevelt to negotiate reciprocal trade agreement would most likely prolong the session to be a very considerable and un- desirable extent.,

Meanwhile, most of the usual trade signs indicate that the business curve is moving up- word at an increasingly fast pace.

He suggests minimum deposit of $2,000 for opening a stock account, but he questions the wisdom of placing the control of the stock exchanges with the Federal Trade Commission.-United Presa.

ROUND-TABLE PARLEY,

Washington, Feb. 26.

A more libera! commercial policy, according to Mr. Cordell Hull, Secretary of State, may be expected to result from the round- table conference being held to day between President Roosevelt and his trade advisers, amongst whom an acute difference of opinion exists.

The conference has been called to reconcile this difference and to evolve a definite and comprehen- alve foreign trade policy, aimed at increasing exports.

REACHING CLIMAX. The conference will also discuss the question of asking Congress for authority to negotiate ciprocal tariff agreements, Tar- ticular attention being given to war debls.
