cry, Valley of the Mohawk, the Nj
agara frontier-from these grew
New York, a state which has mush-
roomed from scattered colonies to
the most populous state in the union
with 13,479, JAP inhabitants!
Through the years, the centu-
ries and many wars, the great
industrial commonwealth of
New York has emerged. Dur
ing World War II, of all the war
contracts awarded by the fed
eral government in the 48 states,
II per cent went to industrial
plants in New York state. Of
the 100 largest industrial cor
porations in the nation, "a are
represented in New York City.
New York's variety of products
range from heavy metals and ma
chinery to exquisitely polished dia-
monds. Shoes, paper, books, maya
zines, furniture, carpets, business
machines, locomotives, cameras,
Photographic films, precision instru-
ments, electrical equipment - and
the list grows on and on-all these
are produced in the factories of
New York. Its apparel industry pro-
duces 48 per cent of the nations
clothing, and As per cent of rugs
and carpets comes from there.

is often as high as 21O days, par
ticularly in the Long island section.
New York's own fruits and vegeta-
bles supply the states large can
ming industries. Wines, champagnes,
oysters, seafoods, poultry, eggs and
other products 60 to nearby mar
kets. The last prewar year placed
a total value of more than 800 mill
lion dollars on New Yorl1's agricul-
tural products, with milk the largest
farm revenue producer. =
Today the port of New York City
is the nations foremost center OF
foreign trade, and yet its people
like to recall that it was there that
George Washington was sworn in as
first president of the United States.
Buffalo is the nations largest fresh
water port, yet when white men first
came they found a Eastwood forest
and Erie Indians fishing and hunt
ing along the creeks and lake. And
there are Binghamton, Rochester,
Syracuse, Utica, Yonkers and others
all playing an important part in
commerce and trade today.
Those who live in New York
anywhere in the State-have
Fairgrounds close at hand.
There are mountains, seashores,
lakes, rivers, waterfalls, farm
lands and more than 70 state
parks. Niagara falls, the Thou
sand islands, Ausable chasm,
the Palisades; HOwes' caverns,
Lake George and many others
are points of interest for natives
and visitors alike.
Lake Placid is internationally
known as summer and winter
resort, with toboggan slides, ski
runs, skating Kinks, stables for ski
joring horses and kennels for sled
dogs. There are literally hundreds
of other places in the state for win
ter sports. Saranac lake is famed
as health resort as we'll asa winter
and summer: sports center.
Lures Vacationists.
Coney island, Brighton and Man.
haitian beaches, and Long island,
with its Riis park, ,Rockaway, Long
beach and Jones Beach, provide a
playground for the great metropoli-
tan areas. Southampton is the scene
of a noted society colony, and Staten
island has number of resorts.
And there's still New York City,
with its universities, it's cathedrals,
museums, libraries, subways,
bridges, parks and driveways-one
of the great wonders of the mod
ern world! +
Yes, New York state has so many
firsts they can't be counted 1t is
rural; it is metropolitan. And al
ways it is refreshing in its variety
of pursuits, pleasures, recreational
advantages and unusual natural
beauty.

Let's think of 100000 cat
tie and $50, 1000 head of sheep.
Just imagine pastures so lush
that each section of land cares
for 40 head of cattle. Picture
a state where farms average
112 acres each. No, it's not
some western state. It's New
York!
After all, Manhattan island is a
small part of the area of New York,
which is 49,576 square miles of
farms, orchards, mountains, val
leys, streams, lakes, forests and 9TH
er rural, beautiful and natural

village, Fifth avenue and Wall

the Adirondacks, the Catskills, Lake

plain was the first white man to set
his foot in New York as well as the
first to teach religion to the Iro-
quois. Within year Hendrix Hud-
son anchored his little ship off Coney
island, finally sailing up the river
which bears his name to the present
site of Albany.
Two years later some Amster-
dam merchants were given a
trading charter for New Meth
erland, as New York was to be
known. The first post was set
up in 1913 on Manhattan; the
second in 1914 at Fort Nassau on
Castle island, south of the pres
ent Albany. Ten years later all
Manhattan island was pur-
chased from the Indians for S23
worth of trinkets.
Forty years later, in 1864, Brit
ish fleet demanded surrender of
New Amsterdam, and Director-Gen-
eral Peter Stuyvesant found himself
with little support. He capitulated,
and the duke of York was granted
the conquered land. "New York"
became the new - and lasting -
name.
AS years passed, more and more
people flocked to the New World,
many of them finding the rich lands
of New York state to their liking.
Hamlets, villages and cities sprang
up, knit together with a network of
aboriginal trails that eventually be-
came roads and highways. Albany's
geographic position, at the cross
roads of the state, made it a key
frontier settlement in the 18th CEN
fury.

The park area in New York City
covers nearly 5000 acres. Largest
is Central park, covering 843 acres
in the heart of the city. World-famed
monuments and sculptures include
the Statue of Liberty, Grants tomb,
the Egyptian obelisk, the Washing

SPRING FANTASY
Prologue: Spring brings to our
minds magic, moonlight, beauti =
full flowers, vivid color, and all
the little animals who frolic over
the green meadows. and last but
perhaps most important of all,
Romance. Our story tonight will
unfold the characters of old Eng
lisf and French pantomime: Har-
.lequin, the lover of Columbine;
Pierot, pathetic sentimentalist
who has a particular fondness for
the moon and pursues Columbine;
and Columbine herself, who is
beautiful and, loves only Harle-
quin. There is also Pierette, who
is fond of Harlequin but is ignor-
ed by him. All is brought to a
happy ending by a magic wand
possessed by Harlequin.
But wait-it seems that I hear
the magic flute of little Pan-let
IL 60 back through the centuries
for a night of the spring he used
to trill his golden notes for. Per-
haps we shall even take part of
our own twentieth century spring
back with us to delight his impish
eye.
