...watch him saunter around, loose-limbed and relaxed, and I believe the sales talk. "You know, a lot of board chairmen are here not because of the job, but because they want to live in California. Some top executives live here but commute to New York for five days a week. In fact, the speed of travel and communications today has ended the inferiority complex the California businessman used to have. The California industrialist is liberated from that old provincial feeling. And he shows it. He is tanned, he swims a lot, he is healthy?people are interested...

The wealthiest state in the nation ranks fourth (after New York, New Jersey and Connecticut) in the amount it spends for the education of its children, and tolerates a second-rate public school system.

The first day of box-office take for Coco, which starts previews next week, was a record-breaking...
...unions may have a friend in court. The day after the strike began, a federal court in New York attacked Boulwarism. It ruled that G.E. had violated the National Labor Relations Act in 1960 by refusing to furnish information requested by the union, trying to deal directly with union locals and presenting a personal-accident-insurance program on a take-it-or-leave-it basis. Judge Irving Kaufman chided the company for its "patronizing attitude" and charged it with an overall failure to bargain in good faith...
