I N D U S T I! y For sixty years industry in the South has developed and multiplied, and in recent years its in- dustrial progress has become a national sensation. Today the South boasts of most of the cotton spindles in the nation, the largest and best equipped shipbuilding plant in the world, a large portion of the country ' s tobacco factories, and important iron foundries and steel mills. Science has made possible the widespread development of rayon and nylon plants and fac- tories for the manufacture of newsprint paper from the abundant southern pine. These and hundreds of smaller industries are having so much effect on the South that the section realizes as never before that economic health as well as wealth depends on a sane combination of agri- culture, industry, and commence.
