GOING RIGHT AHEAD

The South will continue her program of development along industrial, commercial, constructive and popular lines, according to the general prediction of the well-informed financial and business experts and writers. The migratory movement of other sections to the South is far more than a pleasure outing or seeking playgrounds by the wealthy. In this connection the Dodge Corporation, nationally known investigators, Boston, predict an almost unprecedented boom in substantial and progressive construction in the South during the year. A recent survey by this corporation, among other things, says:

"There are ample investment funds available for substantial development projects such as those that are opening up in the South. Even though there may be some slowing down in construction and in business in some sections of the country, the outlook for progressive construction, development along substantial lines is by far better in the South today than in any other section of the country. The prospect is for well rounded development in industry, commerce, construction and population growth."
