It isn’t marvelous, this transfor

one comes to think of it- when one
anal-sizes it and understands it.
There has been no miracle. Noth
ing has been created by flat of gov

The South itself has dene it. Thc
people have lifted themselves by
their bootstraps, as it were. That
is. being thrown back upon their
own resources, the Southern folk
were compelled to depend upon
themselves, to bring into play their
own ingenuity and they have suc
ceeded in :
1. Adjusting supply to demand.
2. Financing and marketing in

3- Improvising new methods of
credit to take thc place of default

It was all the joint acomplish-

bankers of the South, who in their
