MORGRNTIIAU PERFORMS FUNCTION OF ROPER HEAD OF TREASURY ACTS AS ECONOMICS MINISTER ECONOMISTS DISCUSS PROBLEMS AT HIS HOME INDICATION FACTIONS ARE. DRAWING TOGETHER WASH1KGTON Dec. 6. One eve ning a few days ago, Ambassador William Phillips' grim New England ancestors looked down upon a sight which probably made their .painted blood run cold. Since Philips has been In Rome, his big house has sheltered Secretary of the Treasury Henry Morgenthau, Jr., and. on the evening In question, Henry. Morgen thau entertained a regular1 conven tion of the most advanced econo mists of the new deal. Among those present were the secretary's own able economic expert. Harry D. White; the economist of the agriculture department, Mordecal Ezeklel;. and the administration left's favorite trio of fact and figure men, Leon Henderson, who is now secre tary of the monopoly inquiry, Isador Lubin, of the labor department, and Lauchltn Ourrie, of the federal re serve board. They were called to gether to discuss general economic problems. As loquacity Is a trade mark of economists, the discussion was both general and prolonged. The -future of American foreign trade and the country's foreign ex change policy were important topics, for Morgenthau wanted technical ad vice. Other aspects of new deal eco nomic theory were also aired, and considerable time was devoted to the compensatory spending theory, which Is dearest of all to the hearts of most new dealers. Morgenthau, whom the extreme new dealers have suspected of darkly Tory designs, proved a highly sympathetic If not always ft compliant audience. When the party broke up, the guests departed loudly singing their host's praises. The evening was far more signifi cant than the average new deal bull session. The opinions voiced during it may well influence government policy. It also cast a new light on the functions and activities of the secretary of the treasury. It explained, In fact, why Uncle Pan Roper has been able to draw his pay so long, without doing much to earn It except look pleasant and hope for the best. Normally, the sec retary of commerce should be the "economics minister" In the govern ment, collating statistics and Infor mation, annotating theories, and re porting to the president on the na tion's economic health. Actually, Henry Morgenthau has been handling (Continued on Page Pour.)

During a cabinet meeting just prior, to start of his talks with Von Ribbentrop, Daladler submitted and President Lebrun signed a decree con voking parllment for December 8.

This was achieved by a phrase recognizing existing frontiers. On France's side. Informed sources said, the pact constituted formal recognition Austria had vanished and Czecho-Slovak Sudetenland was German.

(AP) United States consular officials today sought official German Interpretation as to what effect the newest an tl -Jewish restrictions might have on American Jews holding property in Germany.

Say Alleni Excluded 'German press commentators agreed ' foreign Jews were not subject to pro visions of yesterday's decrees- which forbade Jews to sell or pawn jewelry or other valuables without a gov ernment permit and ordered them to deposit all securities at banks. But some sections of the press were of the opinion foreigners were in cluded in the ban on Jews owning real estate and Industrial undertak ings and It was this angle United States officials were Investigating. The American Chamber of Com merce expressed belief few Americans could be Involved since American Jews have been withdrawing from Germany as rapidly as feasible.
