before the Institute ofPublic Affairs,University of Virginia,August 10,1929  \nBy RICHARD H.EDMOND8,Editor MANUFACTURERS RECORD,Baltimore.  \nMeasured by the achievements of recent years theSouth has accomplished marvelous results,but in astudy of what has been done one is apt to overlookhow much remains to be done.Measured by the po8-sibilities,certainties,indeed I may say,of the future,all that the South has accomplished in the develop-ment of its material and educational interests is tri-fingly smallas compared with what it is destined todo in the coming years.  \nIt is universally admitted that the natural resourcesof the South are unmatched in any other equal areaof this or any other land.Its geographical location,with three-fifths of the coast line of continental UnitedStates,its climatic advantages,its resources in goil,in agriculture,in iron ore,in coal,and oil,and gas,and granites and marbles,beggar description.  \nIt has,for instance,the largest natural gas fieldknown to the world.It produces 63 per cent of allthe oil poured out of the wells of the United States,and 43 per cent of all the oil produced in the world.And yet new sources of oil are being constantly dis-covered,indicating in the belief of oil experts thatthe filelds which have been opened up will be duplicatedby many other fields of oil and gas yet to be dis-covered.  \nSo vast are its stores of natural gas,one of the best  \nfuels in the world,that pipelines are being built ata cost of perhaps $100,000,000 to carry gas from Loui-siana and Texas to Chicago and other Western cities,and to Birmingham and Atlanta and other Southerncities.There is,however,an awakening sentiment inthese gas producing regions that this natural fuelshould be used to a larger extent at home for theereation of vast industrial interests.  \nLignite,once regarded as of inferior quality as afuel,and of which the South has enormous quantities,is now recognized as having great potentialities,andit has been claimed by an expert who has made astudy of the situation that a Texas electrie powerplant using lignite as fuel is producing electric powerat a lower cost than any other concern in the UnitedStates.  \nOf coal the South has 100,000 square miles,or morethan five times as much as all Europe excluding Rus-sia,and two and a half times as much includingRussia.West Virginia,for instance,has as muchcoal area as all of Great Britain and Europe,exclud-ing Russia,and Kentucky has about the same coalarea.  \nGreat water resources also give the South advan-tages in the production of power.More than 60 percent of the gain made in the installed waterpower ofthe country in 1928 was in the","cbCaifNUg50CEES6","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaifNUg50CEES6","pdf",671810,14,"English","# Industrialization of the
