South Has All Resources
Needed For Expansion,
Scientists Told At Meet

RALEIGH, May H. Up The
Southern Association of Science
and Industry, holding its annual
convention here, was told today
that the South has ample re-
sources for development ola p st
sources for development of post
war program of expansion, Blu
that it hitherto has been lacking
in research n d coordination of
forces.
Speaking at an evening session,
Governor J. M. Broughton teamed
with Senator Lloyd c. Bird Of
Richmond, president elect, in urg-
ing that the South's educational in
stitutions cooperate in a program
of research leading to utilization
of waste and surplus products now
and after the war.
Governor Broughton asserted
that 1.-THE war pushed lot OF in
dustry into the South, and we have
shown that we can handle it with
minimum of labor and wage ids
putes. The South is qualified IN
every resource to take its place
industrially with the rest OF the
nation"
The Wilmington morning star., 1944-05-12

He suggested, m ong other
things, that ways be found to uti-
lie the waste wood and agricul-
tural materials both now and in
the postwar period. IF this can
be done, the enormous benefits re-
sulting from such efforts will add
greatly to the South's wealth." he
added.
Bird, who takes office tomorrow,
urged the development of a
"strong, progressive, staple sys-
tenn in tn e promotion of the
South's economical and social well
fare"
The associations program, he
said, should consider the fact that
at the present time the per capita
income in the South is higher than
it has ever been. The end of the
war will bring an end to a great
many of the conditions that are
producing the present h 6 h in
come" he added.
1.-THE return to peace time pro-
duction will not be easy ana in
dividuals and industries will be re-
quired to make adjustments. We
will probably not go back to the
wage sclae that prevailed before
the war. We will have the great
est number of skilled workers and
technologists that we have ever
had who can help turn our re-
sources into capital wealth.
It is the South's job, he said,
to find ways to use this vast
store of energy and skill. We hear
prophesies that the South is des-
tined to have an era of unpre-
cedented economic progress. This
will not happen without effort and
leadership. Such leadership should
come from the people living in the
south"
Bird added that the addition Of
a few big plants will not of ne.
cessity bring prosperity to large
number of people. The gradua.
upgrading of the South's economy
through the proper development Of
our various resources, particularly
agriculture and foesty, will give
new employment, new profits, i'm
proved standards of living, and g
wider opportunity to more of oul
people"

 The following five days and

Early on D-Day morning, around goo a. m. the shores of France loomed upon the enemy occupied horizon, and everyone was tense with expectation. This was TT! The big moment had arrived. Such a comnotion! The Navy's big guns, were pounding the fam ed coastal wall, the air umbrella was roaring through the skies in all the zig-zag rfianuevers ifnag- inable. and the bobbing channel craft could be seen as far as one could see with field glasses.

 flowers. Such a contrast to our arrival in England. The English people seemed to assume the at titude that they were doing us favor by having us on their island. Of course, being Tanks we overlooked this and credited
 it to the centuries of English traditions that they still adhere to conscientiously. If, however, you think the French people

The sand was soft, so dug in and rested for a while. Rest is hardly the word for you are as alert as a bird dog at the first flush of a game bird. The mass of activity on that beach one can hardly imagine, much less describe. Knowing my route, I hid on the water side of vari- ous trucks in order to cover my self from enemy artillery fire. At this point I saw my first dead and wounded in combat, and the chilling realization of the bloody side of combat surged over me as one who is startled at the sud- den sight of coiled rattlesnake. At this point I looked at the truck was using for cover and To and behold it carried red sign-'Explosives'. Needless to say, hurriedly ran forward to find one with a less dangerous cargo. While crouching behind one truck, saw my first Ger nan prisoners, about 50 in num- per and as they marched past me, one of them smiled and wav- ed. For no good reason at all I returned his greeting. Hardly a .ime for being sociable. So to get off the beach and work inland. What a grand feeling to find part of your own buds. In fact, yhafs when you first realize what the word means.

and the needy everywhere.
2. Without health and strength
none of us can work or think ef
ficiently. Combined with the right
spiritual outlook, health is the
greatest Of all blessings. The past
year has seen an improvement in
both on the part OF the American
people.
3. Although the Thanksgiving
season finds us In the midst OF
our greatest war, we should be
thankful for the progress which
has been made toward a success
full peace. We are justified in be-
lieving the European War will be
over In a few months and the hope
thar total peace may come before
another Thanksgiving Day.
4. Whether Republicans or Dem
ocrats, we should be thankful that
we live in a country where a free
election can be held. Here is
tangible evidence OF the continued
existence OF our country as true
democracy.
5. We should be thankful for the
moral and physical courage that
our men and women have shown
both at home and at the front.
Our fighting forces first believe
that they are engaged in a great
moral crusade; and. second, they
have the courage to back up their
beliefs.
s. Our people should be thank
full for the full employment and
fair wages. No one need be with
out a Job today. AS a result, old
debts are being settled and, to the
joy OF the retailer, large sales are
being rung up on cash registers.
Z. We who believe in free enter.
prise should be thankful that values
have kept up so well. Our rulers
at Washington are showing more
justice and less prejudice. They
are beginning to realize that peo-
pie should be encouraged to save
as well as to spend.
8. We should be thankful for our
newspapers and the evidence their
pages contain OF our continued
right OF free speech: OF the priv.
ilege that every American has 10

his letter published. More than the
peoples OF any other nation, we
are being kept informed as to what
is going on.
2. Our business leaders are re-
sponsible for many OF our bless
ings. They represent a part of
our national life that has become
almost commonplace. Too often
their work is taken for granted. We
should all he more grateful to
them as well as to their wage
workers.
10. Last but by no means least,
we should be thankful for our
churches. There Is today, in &C.
cord with our more serious think.
ing. a deepening OF interest in
spiritual affairs. Church attend
ance Is increasing and there is q
greater desire for a larger partici.
patton in church work and person
al meditation. II is heartening TO
many OF us "old timers" to see
people again reaching for the more
important things In life.
Yes. we have much TO be thank
full for this year!
