WEO-AA.
Seldom. II ever, has a large area
Of the United States or any other
nation experienced such a rapid
industrial development. most Of
which has been within the last ten
years.
This unusual development shows
constantly growing proportions.
Public utilities alone are planning
the expenditure OF $3.50. 900, 900 in
the Southwest, mostly in Texas,
during 1880.
Ten years ago Texas was noted
chiefly for its immense size. its
huge cotton crops. its enormous
herds Of beef cattle and It's vast
grain harvests. Ii was a counrv
largely dominated by cowboys and
cotton planters. Its cities were
small and its general development
was slow. Business was leisurely
and typical of the old South.
There was little industrial actIv-
ity. The big majority OF Texas rail-
road tonnage was in bound. For the
most part. railroad lars were sent
into Texas loaded and were return
ed empty. A few loaded ships call
ed at the Port OF Galveston, but
for the most part they too cleared
with empty holds. There was little.
II any. traffic with Mexico, lust
across the border. Political revo-
lutions and not industry were at
tracing the attentions Of Mexicans
in those days.
Growth In Business
Then came the 81 akeninzi Oil
natural gas and sulphur deposits Of
huge and practically unlimited size
were discovered in many sections
OF the state and IT. the ADJOINING
states Of Oklahom5, New Mexico
and Louisiana.
At about the same time agricul-
turiSts discovered that, with T
rigation. the sage crush and cactus
lands Of the lower Rio Grande
Valley. with its Semi-tropical cli-
mate. would bear the choicest -it-
rus fruits.
Almost overnight the Lone Sta.
State emerged from the doldrums
into a sea Of intense business &C
tivity. which has continued TO gov
by leaps and BOUNDS
Texas today is the biggest nat
ural gas producing area in the
world. and furnishes about one
fourth Of the country's production
OF crude oil. Texas sulphur mines
along the Gulf coast produce 20
per cent Of the worlds sulphur sup
ply. The formerly arid lands Of the
Rio Grande Valley are furnishing
