II d follow in the pathway marked out fy the speakers it cannot but result sr great good to all the people of the s-ztc-
 Other states in the union have been szz5ck to see the necessity of cooper ASsca between their various indus srSes. as ueil as the great benefit to De attained in the use of products grown and produced within their boundaries II is to our shame that while the people of other states are scvazly standing by and supporting xsssl- state industries. and using the rrrc6acSs thereof. the people of Ari- zc2S are not so doing
