Washington. - Before President
Roosevelt left Washington for va.
cation voyage on the new cruiser
philadelphia" he took occasion to
send a message to Congress asking
for half a million dollars to be
used for investigating private mo-
nopolies. Concentration of econom-
lc power in the hands of few per-
sons or groups, he haid, tended tow
ard condition which he compared
to Fascism. That Congress will vote
the money is more than likely. That
investigation, to be made by the
Federal Trade Commission, the De-
partment of Justice and the Secur-
tiles and Exchange Commission will
produce any results that will be po-
litically useful is doubted by many.
And what Congress is most con-
cerned about, now as always, is po-
litical results.
Congressional leaders do not look
for any important political results
from the expression by sixteen of
the Nations financial and business
leaders that they are ready to 60
along with Government whenever
Government shows signs Of being
willing to play ball with them. The
elder statesmen Of the Conservative
side have never had any doubt that
business men were eager To- continue
in business and filianciers to finance
business. once the hobbies imposed
by onerous taxation were removed
and business was not kept in state
OF suspense and apprehension.
Ease Up on Business
President RooseveIt's expression
Of approval of the evidence Of CO.
operative spirit on the part Of big
business is taken in some quarters
as indicating change of front by
the Administration in its attitude
toward business. Whether that
proves to be true or not, there is
no question that the attitude of a
majority in Congress has become
definitely realistic, and that no new
legislation which is calculated to
have a deterrent effect upon bust
ness expansion and unemployment
has ghost Of a chance of enactment
at this session.
The response of the nation to the
new tax bill as finally agreed on by
the conference committee of the two
houses has been to encourage the
conservative Democrats in their at
titude of independence. The new
tax law practically abolishes the
tax on corporation. reserves, and so
greatly modifieS the capital gains
and tax as to eliminate that barrier
to the investment of new capital, for
all practical purposes. There is, to
be sure, some trace left in the new
bill Of the Administration plan of
taxing undistributed corporate earn
ings. That was retained in princi-
pie as matter of Saving face" for
the President. But in effect the tax
plan agreed upon is another victory
for the rebellious group in Congress,
who have been heartened by sue
cess to take an even more definant
stand IN opposition to another of the
pet measures of the White House.

For Their Benefit.

The lights went out at the Ma
lestie Theatre during the crucial
moment of Champagne Waltz"
Sunday evening just as Fred Mac
Murray had finally, by a series of
neutrality-suspicious., condemned
himself in the eyes of his beloved
Gladys SWarthout. For the benefit
of those who capitulated to the
Wiles of Orpheus and left before the
lights came on, we would say that
Fred finally purged himself of all
gile and reclaimed the affections of
the charming Gladys. However
one of Miss SWarthout's most charm
ing songs was missed. When we
face situations like this, when we
have to bring out the candles and
the wash boards and sad irons, we
are apt to concentrate on our pres
ent lack. For the benefit of happy
mental equilibrium and in fairness
Ito all concerned, we might better
concentrate on the usual good serv-
ice rather than the unusual poor
service. Which of course does not
mean we are happy about our rates.
And yet If we could mot Wouldl
take as much pleasure in discussing
our large charity, welfare and
church pledges as we do our cleo
trio bllls-Well, let us form our own
conclusions. This item may prove
food for thought 1t also has its
possibilities as an especially lucious

the repertoire of the club since they
have now given comedy, farce,
drama and mystery plays since their
organization. This is an appropriate
time to pay honor to the one who
has been the inspiring spirit, both
in the organization and growth of
the Club, namely Kay Stone Fet-
teFly. Mrs Fetter1y has faithfully
relayed the inspiration and training
she received under the, skilled train
ing of Alfred Arnold, the man to
whom the Little Theatre movement
in America owes its inception. Mrs.
Fetterly has builded the local group
in its selection of material for pro-
duction which would do most in de-
veloping their talents.
In addition to the educational and
recreational benefits derived by
members and by the community,
well over 5000 has accumulated in
the community hall sinking fund,
since every cent of profit earned
by the Club goes toward this worthy
and much needed goal.
Material for the back stop was
furnished by the Club and the work
donated by Roy Porter. Material
for all stage scenery was furnished
by the Club and work donated by
