Washington. July 16 lP--- Secre- tary Davis vii! leave Washington to- day for Swampscott to see President Coolidge prior to sailing Saturday from New York for Europe.
 The secretary's European trip will take him through the textile, steel and pottery industrial plants of sev- eral countries. He will study labor conditions and the methods used abroad in settling labor disputes.
 Prior to his departure. Mir Davis received a detailed report from Hugh L. kerwin, the labor depart ment's director of conciliation, on the hard coal situation and the pro- gress of negotiations in Atlantic City for a new working contract. The secretary said his visit to the presi- dent was not brought about by the threatened coal tieup, but it was generally assumed that they would discuss that situation.
 There are indications that the At lantic City discussions do not appear wholly satisfactory to the concilia- ton bureau. It is the belief of some officials that the negotiations cannot he entirely successful until the heads of the miners union and the coal operators personally meet and at tempt 10 reach an agreement.

PROSPERITY
IN SOUTH
Washington, From CONNER
ciaI Standpoint, Is Situated
AdvantageousIy
By RICHARD HATTON.

The Importance Of Washington
as the Gateway to the South"
which is no dream but very
tangible possibility, according TO
many local realtors and bankers,
may surprise some Of the old-timers
who have always considered the
Capital as merely the political CEN
ter of the United States.
Nevertheless, year by year, DECIDE
by decade, this city has gathered a
modicum of the prosperity which
the growing South has produced.
That Washington's share OF material
prosperity will continue to increase
as the South expands and developes
commercially and ihdustrially Is
certain. That the modicun of tusf.
ness now turned in this direction
from the South can be made a
very larger share is the opinion
OF many whose vision runs ahead
OF the years.
Wealth OF South.
The aggregate wealth of the
Southern states has multiplied
sevenfold since 1880, says a bulletin
issued by Dominick and Dominick,
brokers of New York and members
OF the New York Stock Exchange.
Total bank deposits increased 2s3
per cent-from 81 ,956. 600, 900 tc S..
$4,000, 000-between 1910 and 1928.
Total resources of national hanks
increased SAB per cent in the same
period-only thirteen years In the
past quarter of a century the value
OF farm properties in the South in.
creased more than 800 per cent.
The railroads have been an i'm.
portant factor in this DEVELOPMENT.
In 1889 there were 1856 miles of
railroad in the Southern states: to-
day the mileage mas multiplied
more than three and one.half times
and amounts to 90,326 miles. serv.
ing every section of the area.
Along with better transportation to
points OF loading, foreign commerce
through southern ports has shown
remarkable gains: in 1928, its value
was six times as great as in 1890
and three times as great as in 1900. |
In 1928, % per cent Of the foreign
commerce Of the United States
passed through southern ports. COM
pared with 20 per cent In 1880.
Materials Exported.
There have been more raw maj
terials to export. Cotton, still the
king Of products. represents 81 per
cent OF the crop values Of the
South: Southern cotton is so per |
cent Of the entire world production. |
From 1870 to 1924. Southern ext
portations of cotton amounted to |
$22 1865, 600 900. and these exports |
maintain to a large extent the |
enormous cotton industry Of Eng |
land with its $4,000, 900 spindles. |
But despite the Importance of the
industry, cotton no lnoger mon
opolizes the agricultural attention
Of the South.
r For example, the Southern states
are now producing 90 per cent Of
the nations corn. IS per cent of
fits tobacco. II per cent of its
wheat, SO per cent Of its rice, and
81 per cent of its fruit and vege-
tables. Out of the worlds tobacco
crop of 1000 900 900 pounds, one
third comes from the south. In
