The future of the Oklal oma
Business Development Corpo-
ration looks bright as it work s
to create new jobs and pro-
mote economic development in
our state.
In two earlier “Money Mat-
tor’s columns, the establish-
ment and purposes of the
OBDC were ex lained. It is a
private corporation designed
to make loans available to new
or established, non-proved or
under-financed businesses pri-
marily in the manufacturing
and processing fields. The
OBDC was created as a result
of a study commissioned by
the Oklahoma Bankers Asso-
ciation and is now in the
process of adding more share-
holders (business institutions)
and members (banks).
Response from J
shareholders and members has
been excellent. There are now
some 140 banks representing
60% of the state’s t al re-
conventional channels and been
re efused. Restrictions often
limit the amount banks can
loan to particular types of
1 inesses. This corporation
will aid your local bank in
providing additional capital.
When a bank makes a partial
loan, the OBDC will be able
to provide the remainder of
the money needed. These loans
will be made in both urban
and rural areas of the state,
and the benefits will be tre-
mendous.
A similar organization in
Kansas reports that over 8,000
jobs have been sustained or
created in the last six years
due to its efforts in lending
funds. And, 82% of these loans
have gone into cities of less
than 20,000 population.
Stimulating our state’s
ec nomy is an important goal
of financial institutions. The

AND SMALL
BUSINESS G
A Day of Reckoning
It is getting close to 30 years
since the National Federation
of Independent Business start-
ed surveying the attitudes of
independent business people on
various issues
* * *
During this time a pro.
nounced change has taken place.
* * *
For up until a very few years
ago, the nation's independent
business people were invariab-
ly behind any moves to raise
the protective tariff walls, not
to protect themselves, but to
protect the jobs of Amercan
workers.
• • •
But today, this position has
eroded substantially to the
point where many independent
business people feel that free
trade is the best thing possible.
* * *
The reason for this change in
attitude? There is an old saying
that the Almighty helps those
who help themselves.
* * *
It is perhaps best expressed
by a Texas construction con-
tractor who comments to the
Federation. ‘‘I am very much
in favor of including talks be-
tween onions and business with
• stipulation that any increase
in wages include an increase in
production.”
When Wilson Johnson, NFIB,
met with other business lead-
ers in a White House confer-
ence on controls, there was
general agreement that a major
cause of the unfavorable U. S.
balance of trade is the low
productivity of American in-
dustry.
Of course, government in an-
other era, encouraged this re-
sult when it more or less
strong-armed the auto makers
to provide for automatic wage
increases with increases in the
cost of living index, rather than
based on increased production.
* * *
But more and more, indepen-
dent business people are taking
the viewpoint that imports are
good for the country because
in time this condition will force
American labor to become pro-
ductive and thus compete for
the home market.
* * *
However, the big danger in-
volved in this course of ac-
tion is that the nation will get
past the point of no return and
be immersed in a depression
of monstrous size.
* * *
It would be far better if the
younger elements in the labor
movement stepped to the fore-
front, and preached the econ-
omic facts of life, telling work-
ers the job they save may be
their own.
* * *
And there is only one way
In which this is going to be
accomplished, and that is at-
taining a higher level of pro-
ductivity and a higher degree
of quality. Fortunately there is
■till time in America to accom-
plish this without going to
“speed-ups” or sweatshop con-
ditions. because there is the
technical equipment In this
country to achieve new levels
of productivity. But machines
can do little unless there are
the men who are willing to
. . — make them perform.

THE CROSS and ITS GLORY
by Rev. Pete Ramires, pastor, New Hope Baptist Church
I Corinthians 1:23
"We preach Christ Crucified”. This is the
focal point in connection with the gospel of
Jesus Christ. It is a picture of blood flowing
from the veins of Christ as he hung a bleeding
victim on the cross The message of shed blood
is repugnant to many, and they turn from such
a gory sight, feeling their delicate sensibilities
have been outraged Thousands of people will
accept Christ’s character, but they reject this
crucifixion
1 THE CROSS IS THE CLEAREST EVI-
DENCE OF THE WORLD’S GUILT. At the
cross of Christ sin reached its climax. Sin’s
most terrible display took place at Calvary. Sin
was never blacker nor more hideous Some say
that man has improved and that If Christ were
to come back today he would receive a better
reception. Christ comes to us every day—in the
form of Bibles we do not read, churches we do
not attend, human needs that we pass by.
bleeding
Today Christ would receive the same treat-
ment he received 900 years ago He had never
committed any sin and had spent his entire
life doing good. Yet in the judgment hall of
Pilate the cry was heard "Crucify Him, Cruci-
fy Him.”
II. In THE CROSS WE FIND THE
STRONGEST PROOF OF GOD’S HATRED OF
SIN. To gain a clear understanding of God’s
attitude toward sin we have only to consider
the purpose of Christ's death The Scripture
says, "Without shedding of blood there is no
forgiveness of sin.” God will not tolerate sin.
He condemns it and demands payment for St.
When we look at the Cross we see how dras-
tically God deals with sin. The Bible says "He
was made to be sin for us who knew no sin."
If God had to send his only son to the
cross in order to pay for sin, it must be dark
and black indeed in the sight of God.
III AT THE CROSS WE SEE A GLOR-
IOUS EXHIBITION OF GOD’S LOVE When
we look upon the provisions and plans made
for our happiness we discover a revelation of
God's love. Nothing is comparable to the
sacrifice of Calvary. Love placed him there.
(John 3 161.
Paul wrote the Roman Christian “.. . God
commendeth his love toward us, in that while
we were yet sinners Christ died for us." (Ro-
mans 5:6-8).
IV. THE CROSS SHOWS THE WAY TO
VICTORY. The cross is the instrument by
which God delivers us from the penalty of our
sins and from the hand of Satan. There are
thousands of Christians who are wrestling with
temptation and sin.
