  • A Michigan Lumbering Family

  • Ruth B. Bordin
  • Journal:
    Business History Review / Volume 34 / Issue 1 / Spring 1960
    Published online by Cambridge University Press:
    24 July 2012, pp. 64-76
    Print publication:
    Spring 1960

  • The bonanza lure of lumbering proved irresistible to many established small businessmen, who were dazzled by the prospects of cheap raw materials and simple processing, on the one hand, and by growing markets on the other. Disillusionment was frequent, but amidst crushing difficulties created by inexperience and inadequate capital the small operator proved remarkably ingenious and persistent. His often ill-rewarded and seemingly unjustified ventures contributed much to the economic growth of the nation.

  • Over the Counter

  • Journal:
    Business History Review / Volume 34 / Issue 1 / Spring 1960
    Published online by Cambridge University Press:
    24 July 2012, pp. 95-112
    Print publication:
    Spring 1960

  • Like the financial mart from which it derives its name, OVER THE COUNTER is designed for the types of exchanges not handled elsewhere. This feature has its origin in a demand among readers of business history for a place to compare ideas, voice comments on published articles and reviews, and publish research essays. Contributions are invited. The Editor and Advisory Board reserve the right to decide whether, on the basis of general interest, pertinence, and merit, such contributions will be published. OVER THE COUNTER will appear as often as the volume of contributions may dictate.

  • Albert Fink and the Pooling System

  • D. T. Gilchrist
  • Journal:
    Business History Review / Volume 34 / Issue 1 / Spring 1960
    Published online by Cambridge University Press:
    24 July 2012, pp. 24-49
    Print publication:
    Spring 1960

  • In the energetic attempt to control destructive competition through pooling, Albert Fink occupied a position of prominence analogous to that enjoyed by Morgan in the consolidation movement that was to follow. Fink's rational advocacy did much to dispel the notion that the railroads were exercising irresponsible censorship over the affairs of the business community. His rate-making ideas and techniques were a lasting contribution to scientific railroad management.

  • Growth is governed by a creative and dynamic interaction between a firm's productive resources and its market opportunities. Available resources limit expansion; unused resources (including technological and entrepreneurial) stimulate and largely determine the direction of expansion. While product demand may exert a predominant short-term influence, over the long term any distinction between “supply” and “demand” determinants of growth becomes arbitrary.
