ROUND MASON COUNTY the word "tree" naturally
/ ,i brings the stately Douglas fir to mind- for this vers-
atile forest giant is indeed an important factor in the
, =community's economic life. It is the basis of a varied
industry an industry which can become even more
important in the future. -
The uses of primary forest products will certainly •
expand in future years. Vast building programs all
over the world will require lflmber, ,plywood, doors, and
- other millwork. Small wood parts and assemblies are
being purchased in the lumber regions for final installa-
tion in finished goods being manufactured elsewhere. New uses for these products
vill be'--- are being developed. In addition, there are scores of new products
which will utilize the tree even further. Authorities say that we .til'_e approxi-
mately 35% of the tree, whereas the Germans utilize ,80%
and the Scandinavians 70%. Plastics and many chemical
compounds are being mass--produced in the U. S. from saw-
dust and wood fibers. A great variety of combinations of'
Wood and plastic have been developed. Even the bark of
the tree has. been transformed into fabric and marketable
chemical derivatives obtained from the bark in the process.
All thesd things mean new opportunities for Maso n County.
Each development holds the inherent promise of new
industries--new jobs new purchasing power for the.
community as a whole. Thousands of men and women will
find enlarged opportunities in the logging camps, the lumber
and plywood mills, the factories and fabrication plants
Maso: County.---aud all America--was founded and built on .
the fu]]damcntal principle that any man or woman should have
the right to work--should have tim right to st'art [. 'bunincss f
his own and to enjoy the fruits of his labor. /s zt r(.:su1, no
other nation hi the whole world can approach the industrial
migh f Americm In no other nation has the standard of living
risen so high for the individual willing to work for it, This
results from the American Way of Life, and is, the pathway to
an even greater America. Why change it?
The s[)osoi' of this series of tdvertisemtnts devoted to col-
muaity betterment are citizens of this community, They own
homes here. Their children go to school here. They have deep
sense of responsibility to the indiJidual citizens stud to change
which will affect the community. They are interested in dcvcl-
opir/g a healthy community following the :Americah Way of
Life, and thus keeping America and lIason Couhty strong for
the g'enerations to .come.
both the established plants and the new plants as well. "
Before these opportunities can actually exist, however, the new industries must be
created the established factories expanded. Such creation and expansion of
opportunity depends to a very large degree on the right kind• of political and
economic "weather."
There is nothing very complex about it. It is, in fact, exceedingly simple, When
conditions are favorable, men and women are given encouragement to create new
enterprises- to expand and develop established businesses. In any business,
Iarge or small, one basic, fundamental factor must be considered. For after the
investments are made, the wages and salaries met, the taxes and upkeep paid,
there must be something "left over" to compensate the men and women who
risked their time and money to establish the venture---regardless of whether it
is a corner grocery store or a factory employing thousands.
In America, this has always been the case..America has said to all men, in effect:
• "Build new industries. Create new ventures. If you fail, that
has been your risk. If you: succeed, your communities will
benefit and you will be entitled to enjoy the fruits of
your honest labor."
Thissimple idea this ideal -- has made America great. It
made possible the incentive, the drive, the ambition which
has built cities as well as industries.., schools as well as
factories.., churches as well as stores. It has given to
America a standard of living enjoyed by no other nation on
the face of the Earth. It will give merica and Mason
"County an even higher standard living in th future:
For when• men and women know that their work is not
in van they will create greater opportunities, for others
as well as for themselves.
