The assertion of G. A. Tomlinson, United States director of inland water ways, that the south offers the greatest field for development of any other sec tion of the union is of reaching sig nifcance. A few years ago correspond ent of Golfers Weekly made a tour of the southern states and the conclusion he reached was that the south was the new west.
 In Horace Greely's days the cry was, Go west, young man, go west" Now t6at the west has been well developed and is teeming with population and wealth, conditions favor more than ever new tide of population and capital to the south with it's boundless resources and it's millions of untitled acres pur- chasable at comparatively low prices. Within the last 40 years vast capital has been invested in southern industry, but the ground has barely been scratched, so to speak
