(International) Bills in Legislature Salem (U.R) An administra tive procedure bill, first to get to the floor of the House, has been passed without a dissent ing vote. The measure would set up standards of judicial review and hearings before state agencies. It was the result of seven years of study by the State Bar As sociation and numerous hearings before the House Judiciary Com mittee. It now goes 'to the Senate. Salem flJ.R) A bill limiting the expenditure of its 'own funds by the State Fish and Game Commissions' was sent back to the joint ways andmeans com mittee Saturday by members who objected to the commis sions' freedom from the tithing law. The commissions both escape provisions of the law requiring some self-sustaining boards and commissions to contribute part of their income to the state to pay administrative costs. A tithing bill now before the Ways and Means group does not in clude the Fish and Game Com missions. If they were tithed at the standard rate, the state general fund would realize some $90,000 per biennium. Ike's Nevada Visit Washington--U.R) The White House today denied a published report that President Eisen hower may visit the Nevada proving grounds to witness the atomic tests scheduled this week. "There is nothing to that," As sistant Press Secretary Murray Synder said. ''There is no such plan." 1955 Declared To Be Shaping Up As One of Best Business Years New York (U.R) This year Is shaping up as almost certainly the best business year in his tory. Perhaps that won't apply to you personally. But it will ap ply to most businesses and to the majority of Americans. 'Experts predicted it. . Now they are pinching themselves because their forecasts not only came true but exceeded their hopes. So far, 1955 has been the tops exceeding the past record holder, 1953. Key Factors The gross national produce total output of goods and serv ices has hit an annual rate of $369,000,000,000. It topped the 1953 first quarter by $7,200, 000,000 and shot past last year's figure by $13,200,000,000. Key factors in the business upswing are three industries autos, steel and construction. But even such soft spots as rail roads and textiles are making a comeback from last year's slump. What about that business bar ometer, the stock market? After a pause during the Ful bright Senate hearing last month During the investigation the Dow Jones industrial average of 30 stocks dipped to 391.36. Now the average is nudging 430, the market has broken the 1929 highs and, in mid-April, rose nine days in a row. In a single day last week, ex ecutives of such giants as Gen eral Electric, U.S. Rubber and Union Carbide & Carbon told shareholders that 1955 sales should set all-time highs. Auto dealers rolled more than 2,000,000 cars off the assembly lines in the March quarter. Gen eral Motors President Harlow H. Curtice expects the industry to build a record-smashing 7,500 000 cars and trucks this year. Chrysler is making more than twice as many cars as it pro duced a year ago. But it is . the auto industry which poses the biggest potential headache of 1955. Slrike Might Bust Boom .

The latest estimate by th census bureau Is that 3,176,000 persons were out of work in early March, compared with 3, 724,000 in March, 1954, and 1,674,000 in March, 1953. But take home pay for factory workers is at an all-time high. It's also at a peak for board chairman and barbers, parlor maids and pants pressers. Steel producers are operating at 96 per cent of capacity. Even so, they can't meet customer de mands. Housing has been the sensa tion of all. It continues to surge, reflecting population growth and the move to the suburbs. New homes are going up at an annual rate of 1,405,000.
