My dear Mr. Lewinson:

There is no doubt in my mind that business education is not only a growing need but that it has become a definite part of the educational system of the country. I hope, too, that the word "business" can be extended to apply in its broader sense, not only to what we used to call commercial lines of activity, but also to other activities, such as agriculture, which, under modern circumstances, are a part of the broader conception of business as whole.
