Business Favorable To the Policies By Peter Edson
Business publications and confidential letters say Eisenhower's new Republicanism leans left yet business confidence remains strong. The Treasury budget fears inflation, while Weeks defends progress, and BAC data show big donors back Ike. Ike's inner circle includes major industrial leaders, sparking debate if they push liberal policy or advise prudent governance. Overall 1957 looks brighter than 1956 despite some softness in home building.

Three Per Cent Tax Debate In Kansas Legislature
The Kansas Legislature nears mid-session with little progress on imposing a new three per cent general sales tax. A Democrat governor and Republican majority contribute to avoidance of the costly tax plan, risking minimal debate and a rushed outcome at adjournment. Kansas faces about twenty million dollars in new yearly levies, shifting the burden to wage earners. A second item reports a Miami man who drank twenty one ounce shots in five hours to prove sobriety in a drunk driving case, challenging judgments based on alcohol amount rather than elimination by the body.
