By NEALE LESLIE A group of Santa Rosa busl nessmen meeting yesterday at a luncheon held at the Flamin go Hotel got some ideas on the area's industrial development program. Guest speaker was C. M. (Pat) Barnes, president of The Dayton Tire 4 Rubber who Is visit ing Santa Rosa after setting up an automobile dealer franchise through Bishop-Hansel Ford. Mr.

Barnes reported that the company Is now manuafcturing tires a day, but that this will be expanded during this month to 22,000. One of the prob lems in a tire plant, he said, are the skyrocketing costs. Av erage hourly rate runs at $4, and that doesn take into consideration fringe benefits. "So you're compelled to develop automation. We have a for mula that enables the car dealer to go into the tire business.

We have tried this out for four years and we know it works." Another company official told the Press Democrat that some 20 meetings had been held with Bishop-Hansel Ford before the move was solidified. The company is eyeing the North Coast area's lumber industry as a source of future sales. Replying to another question concerning tire standards, Mr, Barnes said that these are be ing established. However, the situation is complicated by the fact that there are so many dif ferent types of tires designed for various forms of driving. Replying to a question from Robert Bishop concerning the location of the plant.

Mr. Barnes! said that main factors in having a plant in Santa Rosa were rapid transportation "so that you can give fast service up and down the coast plenty of water; and an adequate labor sup ply. He added that availability of housing was another item of importance. Asked if rapid transit alone problem for the area, he replied that both highways and rapid transit would be needed. "Is there some key to getting unified chamber of commerce action in an industrial program?" he was asked.

"You have to have strong leadership and get the top people out." Another question: Do you think the riot situation gives an opportunity to towns like Santa Rosa? "Yes, the trend towards satel lite plants will get a shot in the arm. I think that this is bound to happen," he said. MCHB Inc.
