POSSIBILITIES OF
SOUTHDISCUSSED
By President L. A. Downs of
Central Railway.
The possibilities for development of
the natural resources of the South
are discussed in an interesting man
ner by L. A. Downs, President of
the Central of Georgia Ry. Company,
who has given much time and
thought to this important topic.
Mr. Downs points out that real
progress is dependent upon the de
velopment of both industry and agri
culture. He shows how by-products
of the peach and the pecan can du
plicate the growth of cotton seed
into a great business. He also points
out the exceptional opportunity for
the stock x-aiser.
Quoting the figures as to the
great growth of textiles and the phe
nomenal development of the coal
and iron indusry, he says that possi
bilities in other lines are boundless
and have scarcely been touched. The
weak point is the fact that so many
raw materials, especially minerals,
are being shipped elsewhere for man
ufacture instead of being manufac
tured at home.
The superiority of Kaolins has
been proved, but manufacture lags:
for instance, there are no light color
ed face brick manufactured in either
Georgia or Alabama, although Geor
gia clays make an excellent fact?
brick, and there are about a billion
such brick made annually in the
United States.
Barytes, Alabama Graphite, Fullers
Earth and Mica all await develop
ment. Os 52 commercial minerals,
4-4 are found on the lines of the
Central of Georgia.
President Downs pledges the co
operation of the agricultural and
industrial departments of the Central
of Georgia in developing the natural
resources of the section through
which the railroad runs.
