Economists, political pundits and harassed business men in America today wonder precisely what's going to happen next! Virtually every day somebody steps up with a breezy cure for our economic ills or a sure-fire method for pulling the country out of the business doldrums. And most of the schemes die aborning. Optimism these days consists chiefly in being glad that conditions are not growing worse. If there is anywhere a silver lining to the cloud it is on the Pacific Coast. The navy maps new air lines in the Pacific, with extensive construction scheduled from Kokiak Island, Alaska, to the Panama Canal. Great Britain looks over airplane factories in Los Angeles and Seattle, with a view to extensive purchases. Business leaders in the eleven western states enthuse over the prospects of the Industrial West, Inc., a non-profit organization dedicated to bringing -new industries and new capital to the west coast. Mining takes a new lease on life, and Walter W. Bradley, state mineralogist, announces the surface of mining in California has “hardly been scratched.” A severe freeze in Europe, while disastrous to producers across the sea, insures top prices for California fruits. The state’s honey crop this year will bring a new high income of . $1,250,000. And farmers her@tontinue payment of the highest farm wages in the United States.

ONE THOUSAND BOY SCOUTS TO CAMP IN FOREST Harris Ricksecker, boy scout executive of Auburn, has requested assistance from the forestry officials in selection of a site for a camporal to accomodate approximately 1,000, boy scouts congregating from Northern California and the Staite of Nevada, according to DeWitt Nelson, forest supervisor at Nevada City.
