strengthening of existing ties be-
tween the midwest and the South
Atlantic sectirons and the establish
ment of more thorough understand
ing between them is the common
cause for the fight of the South AT
lantic ports for fair field and no
favor"
Thus, the South Atlantic Ports. pub
lished in Jacksonville, copies of which
were received in Brunswick yester-
day, summarizes the purposes of the
coming "MidWest-South Atlantic Get
Together Trade Trip"
The magazine has devoted its last
ysue almost exclusively to the trip.
Editorially it sets forth in telling
manner the objects of the trip, its i'm
portance and the just cause for which
the FIVE ports are fighting for their
existence and future DEVELOPMENT.
There is strong need for the
South, particularly the states of North
Varolina South Carolina Georgia and
Florida to strengthen the bond of mu-
tual attractiveness which now exists
between the South Atlantic section
and the great midwest territory of
the United States it says.
BY far the big majority of large
business interests of the midwest
realize that particularly for foreign
trade purposes, the South Atlantic
ports are, tremendous economic assets.
The greatest awakening to. the posi-,
bilitiessthat, lie In the development of
foreign trade to be noted anywhere iE
America, is evidenced by mid West
business concerns seeking outlets for
their manufactured products.
Traffic routes are being opened
between factories and foreign mar.
kets with a rapidity which is surpris
ing, and because of this. the South
Atlantic ports have no tima to lose
in firmly establishing themselves on
such routes.
1.-The midwest is we'll aware of the
advantages in having these port cities
so established and available for Its
tonnage, and on several recent occa
sions has sent representatives to fight
the cause of the South in matters hav
ing to do with export freight rates
However. in spite of the uneconomica'
wisdom Of so doing, powerful Easter"
railroad Influences are strongly en-.
deavoring to place the Southern ports
at disadvantage regarding rates, ard
to DESTROY the parity of the situation
now existing between them and New
fair field and no favor has long
a slogan OF the Sopth Atlantic
~ ction in its fight to secure fair rates.
In no sense can it be declared that
forcing freight tonnage through tic
port of New York from all sections by
discriminating rates is just and fair to
the country as whole.
''The mid West and the South At
lantic sections. therefore, have com
mon cause to fight. 1t is 20 strengthen
the existing ties between them and to
establish a more thorough understand
ing, that the great mid -West-South AT
lantic trip is being planned for the
last sixteen days in May. During that
time many important cities will be
visited and at the conclusion of the
trip, new sense of relationship will
have been established that has hith-
erto been unattained."
