The fundamental strength of the

of accomplishment among the people
themselves, Roger w. Babson, emf

night told the South Caolina Bankers
Association, in session here.
ITO me-" he said, these intangible
and human resources, stimulated by
spiritual faith and education, are the
real foundations of the South of today
AMI the South of the future. 1t is not
merely agriculture, store of raw ma
terials, machinery and money which
assure that a region will make for
ward steps in years ahead, but rather
the men and women. Men and women
make values and souls make men and
women"
The Nation prospers with the pros.
perity of it's individual parts, he de-
clared.
The crux of his address was that
the South is embarking under an eco.

merely TO itself lat to the entire
Nation.
Soil fertility, climate, mineral de.
