SOUTH AMERICANS
TURN TO INDUSTRY
Republics Undertake to Supply

Nv the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
SAC PAULO, Brazil.-South America
has undertaken to industrialize itself
and supply the manufactured goods its
people need.
It Is an uphill job, South Americans
have been thinking in terms Of land
and agriculture for four centuries. The
Portuguese and Spanish land grants
were the basis for all fortunes until
recent years. Coffee, sugar, rubber,
cattle, fruit, grain, rice and cotton sup-
ported the upper class people and af-
forded labor for the workers.
Most Of the large fortunes of South
America are in great estates. The rich
are not inclined to industries and will
not invest their fortunes in them to any
great extent. Consequently capital has
come from abroad.
Sac Paulo, which claims to be the
greatest industrial city south of the
Equator on any continent, has grown
into a city Of 100000 under industrial
expansion.
Rio de Janerio has also been in
dustriali2ed to considerable extent.

cally all the ordinary wearing apparel
required by the masses and Is RAPIDLY

facture Of more LUXURIOUS articles be-

Then. the treatment Of Constipa-

depression, indigestion. sour stOm-

result from constipation was entire
