 Washington, D. C., March 2l. = What the business community and the conservative groups want to know is how much can be done by this administration for business in its present turn to the Right"
 This concern centers around cer- tain key subjects so far as business is concerned.
 One of them is taxes. The other iS government regulations. The third is the antitrust laws. The fourth is labor. The fifth is the question of money and the dollar.
 Whether the administration can actually do anything for them or not, at least one thing is quite possible. It can stop frightening them. It can also declare mora torium upon reform. That of course, is what the business man wants. The liberal groups feel pretty bad about this. They insist that actually few of the great major re- forms required by the country have been carried through.
 Can the administration balance the budget next year? The answer is mo" Can it reduce taxes? Well the President has announced that he will not raise taxes. That is as much as any business man can ex- pect. But while there can be no de- crease of taxes, he may hope fol some change in the type of taxes.
 The business man does not want the undistributed profits tax or corporations and he wants the rates mitigated in the upper brackets. But if the upper brackets are relieved then they will have to be shifted tc the lower brackets. At least business leaders believe that they have got ten over to the administration in a big way their demand for the eli imitation of those taxes which tend to hinder investment. And private investment is the oil that turns the wheels of industry.
 What can the administration dc about the railroads? Secretary i Hopkins said in his Des Moines speech that a solution of the rail problem must be found. But he gave no inkling of what he would recommend. One thing is certain not a great deal can be done about this quickly. The solution of the railroad problem should have been tackled in 1883.
 What of construction? Of course, construction is affected by so many factors outside the power of the federal government that it is very hard to know what it can dc quickly to start building now. The building industry from top to bot tom is tied up in pricefixing and production control combines and agreements-labor. dealers, manu- lecturers, sub-contractors all leagued to keep prices up. The gov- ernment certainly has no plans on this front.
 One thing the President can dc of ineStimable value as a political move and that is to deliver him. self into the hands of the sound money groups in his party. Uncer- tainty as to money has caused 8 great deal of trouble. Fear of deval- uation and other apprehensions aroused by the Presidents talk about money and managing the dollar etc. have been responsible for nc end of hesitancy in investment.

STRAND

Current attractions concluding their engagements with perform ances this evening at the Warner Bros. Strand theater include -Four Girls in White" starring Florence Rice and Alan Marshall; also Doro- thy Lamour and Lloyd Nolan in "St. Louis Blues"
 A combination of stars, hit tunes and swingy music will predonninate on the screen at the Strand tomor- row afternoon when 1939's musical triumph, Honolulu" arrives at this popular theater for a four day en- gagement.
 The film is hailed as tops m nnusi- cal entertainment and stars Eleanor Powell who gives you taps to top all musicals, with Robert Young, George Burns and Oracle Allen heading the featured cast. Lending authenticity to. the musical back ground of the hula numbers is Andy Iona'S Islanders, most famous of all Hawaiian native orcheStras.
 You'll see --a and hear - Eleanor Powell in a spectacular imitation Of Bill Robinson's famous stair dance. Oracle Allen sings the theme song. Honolulu" Other songs include This Night will Be My Souvenir and "The Leader Doesn't Like Music," and the massed orchestra fo real Hawaiians gives you the islands s traditional Hymn to the Sum-"
 It's entertainment from the first shot to the last. Robert Young plays dual role as a motion picture star and his double. He goes to Hawaii to get away with 1t all-and on the boat he meets cabaret star and promptly falls in love. But he still has to impersonate the man he left behind who is his double-an in doing it, inherits all of that mans

seems to be enjoying travelling very
much. They have visited several
countries which were China, Ja-

Sweden. They have written very
interesting reports on each coun-

In a sense the Business Law
class is a class without a home.
Sometime the pupils have class in
the lunchroom, and then again
they will have class in a. Jr. High
class room, and on Friday they
have their meeting in the Jr. High
Assembly. They are now studying
Insurance, forms of contract, OBJ
legations of buyer of Insurance,
and what constitutes an insurable
interest in property.
The tipping I classes are now
concentrating on letter writing,
placement of letters according to
length, types, etc. This phase of
typing is practical because it
teaches the students just how to
write a correct business letter.
They will continue on this work
about one more week. Next week
