Kindly Competition is Strictly Modern -(An Editorial)

Kindly, friendly tolerant competition is a product of our modern civilization that was unknown in the earlier days.

The history of the world shows that untit a few short decades ago the human mentality could not conceive of friendly toleration of a competitor.

The old Gods, the old kings, the old nations, all conceived it to be their duty to destroy their competitors, or make them their subjects. That there was room for allthat the world might thrive on competition-that men and things would develop cooperatively-was too great for their narrow comprehension.

Even the God of Israel describes himself innumerable times throughout the Old Testament as a "Jealous God."

Take the history of cities. Throughout the back ages, no city believed it could live, if another great city prospered. Cato went to Carthage as an ambassador, and he was so impressed with the prosperity and power of Carthage that he became obsessed with the idea that for Rome to live, Carthage must die. He made his eternal slogan the words, "Delenda est Carthago !" (Carthage must be destroyed.) He used it in all addresses to the Senate and to the people of Rome, until he brought about war, and Carthage was wiped from the face of the earth.

Cato did not realize that Carthage was helping civilize the world, and that through civilization the world would become better, and Rome would become better.

We have merchants today with the Cato instinct, who think their only hope of prosperous business is by cutting the throat of all competition.

They, like Cato, and like the ancient thinkers, are merely behind the times. Their thoughts, and methods, are still in the dark ages.

Cooperation and competition both are necessary in this day and age.

There are now more than 6000 uses of wood. Research is continuously developing new ones, always seeking useful products to effect more complete utilization of the tree. "Leave only the leaves" is the battle cry of wood research.
