THE SOUTH As AN INVESTMENT
CENTER.

Il would rather invest in the
southern part Of our country than
elsewhere, for, in my opinion,
that is the section that is to
share more than the North. East
or West in the future enhance
ment of values. have great faith
in the broadcast development of
the whole South"
The foregoing remarks are from the
current issue of the Manufacturers
Record and are attributed to Mr.
Frank J. Gould, the New York mil
Iionaire, who has already put some
millions of money into the South,
thereby showing in a practical way
that he backs up his opinions with
real faith. 1t is. therefore, worthy Of
the greater consideration for this very
reason.
Though Mr.. Gould confines his spe-
cifc remarks in the article to which
reference is made to certain portions
of the South with which he is most
familiar and in which he is most
closely interested in a financial way,
If is naver: heless tue that he also
gives general remarks that show his
great faith in the splendid POSSIBLE
itiee of DEVELOPMENT in every section
of the South.
The opinion expressed by Mr.. Gould
is one that is typical of many OF the
great fnanciers of the East, VINO have
belped in the development of the
South and at the same time have
roaped excellent returns from their
.~-~oa0ts. These are men who are
not misIed in their judgment OF this
section. because they look upon it ii
a coId-blooded. business-like way,
having regard almost entirely to the
dividends an investment here will
pay.
It serves to bring to mind again
the youth and energy that is chaFac-
teristic of the rejuvenated South.
Though the development here has
been great. almost phenomenal, IN
fact considering the short time in
which it has been accomplished, the
development for the future IS sui
greater. Many of the eastern states
have passed through their period OF
greatest development and business
activities among them is now COM
paratively quiescent, but the South IS
as a giant that is just arising from
slumber The future stands before
us with all the possibilities OF al
most unlimited development for
those who seize the opportunities
that are to be met everywhere to-day
