WORK FOR CABINET.
Long-term Policy has yet to be Decided on. TWO IMPORTANT SUBJECTS. United Press Assn.—By Electric Telegraph—Copyright. (Received December 14, 11.30 a.m.) RUGBY, December 12. The Parliamentary recess will be used by the Government as an opportunity for continuous work on the problems still awaiting solution. The session which has just closed was to enable emergency measures to be carried into law, and now the Ministers have to decide upon the lines of their long-term policy. The Prime Minister forecast a comprehensive statement soon after the reassembly of Parliament on February 2, though full development of the Government’s proposals will probably have to wait a Budget statement. Two subjects which it is generally expected will occupy the time of Cabinet during the recess are:—First, the international conference on reparations and debts, which, it is assumed, will take place soon after the experts at Basle have completed their report; and, secondly, the fiscal policy. Cabinet will be in session continuously next week. Later the Prime Minister hopes to get away to Lossiemouth for a short rest.
