RECOVERY OF SOUTH
SHOWS1NO MIRACLE
Joint Accomplishment of Farmers,
Merchants and Bankers Brought 1t
About in Quick Time.

ATLANTA, Gait has been a
marvellous transformation from near
bankruptcy in l920-2l to comparative
prosperity in 1922 from 10-cent
cotton and despair to 25-cent cotton
and good cheer-in the face of Eu-
ropes scanty purchases, according to
Atlanta business men.
Forrest Adair, Sr, says it is not a
miracle. Mr.. Adair keeps in close touch
with the investment world, the real
estate market and business generally
turnout the entire country thru the
Realty and Trust Company of Atlanta,
of which he is the head. 1t has the DIS
tinction of being the Oldest company
of its kind in America.
1t isn't marvellous, this transforma-
ton, Mr.. Adair points out, when one
comes to think of it, when one analyz-
es it and understands it. There has been
no miracle. Nothing has been created
by fiat or government.

people have lifted themselves by their
-bootstraps, as it were. That is, being
thrown back on their own resources,
the Southern folk were compelled to
depend upon themselves, to bring into
play their own ingenuity and they
have succeeded in:
/. Adjusting supply to demand;
2. Financing and marketing intelli-
gently; and
g. Improvising new methods of
credit to take the place of defaulted
methods of pre-war days.
1t was all the joint accomplishment
of farmers, merchants and bankers of
the South, who in their necessity dis
covered and put to use talents and ia
cilities not before realized. 1t has been
costly but valuable experience.
That is, it will prove of inestimable va
Tue if the South takes the lesson to
heart, if it maintains the practices
and instrumentalities of the achieve
ment and perseveres in self-relance,
