ERE IS A DEFINITION that Henry Ford gave of business many years ago. He said, "Business is the mechanisnr for supplying human wants, and the wants keep right on bigger want rises to take its place." True. ***

Look at the way our human "wants" regarding entertainment, for example, have been answered with the movies. the radio" television, etc. See how our transportation "wants" have been supplied with millions of rniles of roads, millions of automobiles, busses, trains and planes. You can keep on digging up marvelous answers to human "wants" in everv direction.

Bruce Barton wrote years ago, "Faith in business, faith in one's self, faith in other people, faith in this countrythis is the power that moves the world."

Many men, in discussing and criticizing business, fail to understand how definitely business depends on FAITH and on CONFIDENCE. On faith is built credit. And whence comes credit? From CREDO, meaning I BELIEVE. Business is built on confidence. And whence comes confidence? From CONFIDES, meaning WITH FAITH. Business is tremendously improved. Prospects generally

History amply demonstrates that no matter how difficult the road he seeks to climb, a crusader who believes with his whole soul that the climb can be negotiated, will awaken a fierce enthusiasm that carries all before it. And he can overcome all obstacles. He may even lift unbelievers to heroic heights. In the pathway of Peter the Hermit on crusadg everything flammable catches fire. To say such things cannot be done is to say that you do not know history. All men are subject to such influence. Even the strongest are more or less malleable.

One poet said that "thrice armed is he whose cause is just', I while still another declares: "So many Gods. so manv Creeds. so many roads that wind and rvind, when all ihis old world really needs, is just the art of being kind."

James G. Stearns, president o{ Califomia's County Supervisors Association, has reported that the National Park Service's plan for a redwood park along California's North Coast is a o'monumental insult to California and its coast counties."

"For the last two decades," he said, oothe Park Service from its fortress of God and Motherhood has been sending out patrols on difierent missions that were not part of its job in the beginning."

He cited the current national redwood park as a case in point.

"The people and industry of the redwood region," Stearns said, o'are beirig thoroughly discredited and held up to public view as a threat to a great resource to accomplish the National Park Service's purpose."

He pointed out that the Park Service neglects to tell the public that more than lnfi ol Cd.ifornin's North Coast is alread,y gooernnrcnt owned,, and that the counties of Humboldt and Del Norte, where the NPS would like to place its park, already have more state and county parks than any comparable areas in the country.

'oThe main allies of the Park Service in this endeavor," Stearns pointed out, 'oars people in the East whose principal qualification is.ignorance of the facts."

"To the minds of local peoplg" he continued, "it occurs that these same Easterners are the descendents of a generation that destroyed its virgin hardwood forests, shot the passenger pigeon into extinction, allowed the market hunter to nearly destroy the migratory waterfowl, and turned every river on the Eastern Seaboard into a sewer."

Housing Sfqrts Prediction

Although housing starts for the first half of 1965 were off about 8 percent from last year, Charles E. Young, market research director for the Western Wood Products Association, predicts the year will end only about two percent less than in 1964.

Young estimates 1965's total housing starts will reach 1,530,000 and bases his findings on a multiplier formula applied to starts in the second quarter. Young says his formula has been remarkably accurate in recent years, provided the preliminary reports of monthly starts are not too seriously revised.

Pickering Liquidqtion Voted

Pickering will receive $15,297,888 from Fibreboard Paper Products Corp. and Yuba River Lumber Co., the purchasers.

Wolnul Industry Wins I st Round

The American walnut industry, unleashing a hard-hitting counter-attack against a Department of Commerce ruling which ended export controls on walnut logs, has won the first round of its battle for restoration of controls. ooRound 2 is coming up soon, and we feel confident," said Donald H. Gott, of the American Walnut Manufacturers' Association.

The first round victory was achieved in the form of official action by , the Senate Committee on Commerce. In a strongly worded letter to Commerce Secretary John T. Connor, the committee urged Connor to reconsider his earlier decision which allowed controls to expire.
