ARE BEHIND THE PROCESSION
New EnsIanders Criticised by Writer
for Their Lack Of
"Gineer."

There is one grave fault to be
charged up against the people of
New England in this era of expan-
sion and boom: They do not know
the exact status of their states, they
do not realize that they are still the
richest in opportunity of any of the
states of the United States and they
do not take kindly to the methods
of publicity adopted by other states
and sections of the country. Mel
Their do they realize that it is New
England that is still doing the big
things in the industrial world.
If the New England manufacture
ers and the New England press
made as much of new mills and new
industries as the people and press
of the west and south and the Pa
ciic slope make of the increases in
those sections, the world would real
ize that we Of New England are still
in the lead, not only with respect to
the products of the industries that
have long been established, but also
with respect to new industries and
the expansion of the old industries.
It is not the old industries that we
have to fall back upon; it is not ira
dition or history that we have to in
woke when we wish to emphasize the
pre-eminence of New England in
the industrial world.-Advertising
