Of New Industries and Industrial Development in the South-New Enterprises in Arkansas-Big

In manufacturing lines the quarterly re- port of U. S. Steel had a most salu- brious effect, the earnings being somewhat of surprise considering the fluctations in the markets dur ing recent months. In general dev-
 elopment lines perhaps the most sig nificant movement in the south at the present time is the construction of
 roads, and this campaign proceeds merrily with the assistance of expert
 demonstrators furnished by the U. S.
 government. The method of issuing
 bonds for road improvement is gain
 ing favor as the agitation increases.

 of the laws of the states and the
 general laws of the land, and issues
 cf this character, emphasized in par ty platforms. will encourage capital
 seeking investment in the south. The
